Yep. AJ vs Klitschko/Parker/Povetkin/Ruiz 2 all supposedly did more than 1m.

Mayweather vs Hatton/McGregor and I think vs Manny too.

Probably a lot harder these days. IPTV/streams must take a large percentage of the buys.

I thought Tyson vs Bruno also did very well - remember the days when PPVs were a £10.

In those days I'm not sure if a million had Sky! Suddenly the few who had sky had a lot of friends!!!

A lot less people had the ability to buy a PPV then than they do now. Nowadays if you’ve got an iPad or Now Tv box then you’re able to buy. Pretty sure you needed a Sky subscription back in the day.

Good one.

Now they got all sorts.

Not sure if we ever know for sure. Hearn stated publicly that he expected Fury/Whyte to do 800-900k on BT. You'd think he'd have as good an idea as anybody.

Mayweather vs Hatton/McGregor and I think vs Manny too.

Wlad vs. Haye did over 1m too.

Mayweather vs. Pac did just less than 1m I believe.

May vs. Hatton and McGregor both did over.

Yeah you needed a dish in those days. I remember the introduction of PPV being controversial at the time. Boxing going over to Sky, followed by PPV, was the beginning of the marginalisation of the sport.

Way too early.

But no signs of any projections either eh?

Usually they say it’s looking to break even or doing well.

But then again, no one would announce that it’s ‘not doing well’..

Frank said they expect to come out on the right side. Which means that no records were broken here….

I think you might be missing a 0 there. I recall it being in the 6 to 700K range.
