Mayweather-Pacquiao Fight Breaks PPV Records
The Mayweather-Pacquiao bout shatters pay-per-view records.
FOX News Radio’s Bill Vitka has the story.
(Mayweather) “I proved that I’m the best.”
Whether or not Floyd Mayweather is the best — his fight with Manny Pacquiao — made for the best ever pay-per-view purse. The fight set a record.
An estimated 4.4 million viewers paid a record price of $89.95 to $99.95 to watch the fight. The haul is more than $400 million. It nearly doubles the old record for a boxing pay-per-view buy: Mayweather and Oscar De La Hoya in 2007.
Demand was so great on fight night, that the bout had to be delayed about a half-hour to process late orders.
