Haye Sky's PPV numbers

[superfly98]

Anybody have any idea when this will be released...already have the german numbers....also the american ones as well. Im certain this fight got alot of hype.

What do you guys think of the chances of the BBC or ITV showing a replay in a couple of weeks?

:?

[ishy]

What's the American figures?

[kosaros]

According to ******, all of Haye's purse is connected to the PPV sales (i.e why Haye was in London promoting the fight as much as possible) so lets hope they are good.

I predicted between 300,000 - 500,000 before the fight although anything over 100,000 would be good :good

I thought the same. What is wrong with ****** you heard his comments after the fight?....so quick to slate Haye after the win. Didnt he predict a Valuev win as well. The guy is a joke :huh

I heard ****** on the radio this morning discrediting Haye.

The man is a fucking wanker, I can't stand the cunt. He's a total joke, a caricature.

[bored]

I reckon this will be bigger than Hatton-Pac.

No just saw various news articles. It doesn't suprise me. Im sure the true reasons he's pissed is because he doesn't have any rights on the hottest ticket in british boxing

[superfly98]

If Haye's numbers are higher than PAC-HATTON full credit to him he did an extraordinary amount of promoting for this fight. I give him more credit especially on the stamina front. Hasn't fought for over a year, fighting in Germany and doin his roadwork in the uk while waking up at various times to do promotional spots :happy

Can anyone name a fighter whose done that much promotion before a fight and still look good on the stamina front.
I remember the Barret fight Haye was blowin in the 5th round

[Jamie26]

I heard ****** on the radio this morning discrediting Haye.

The man is a fucking wanker, I can't stand the cunt. He's a total joke, a caricature.

I thought it was hillarious , when he was saying haye will only be champ, when he fights a klitchko . From the man that promoted joe calzaghe . And hattons wbu years .

He's got some brass neck

[theuppercut]

Apparently Sky had to recruit extra staff such was the demand. But that could mean either they're not expecting high numbers and had low staff or the opposite.

As for Frank ****** any chance he can get to discredit an fighter like Haye, that is not in his stable, he'll take it. He's a pantomine villain in a poxy theatre. Move on.

[trotter]

No just saw various news articles. It doesn't suprise me. Im sure the true reasons he's pissed is because he doesn't have any rights on the hottest ticket in british boxing

He's just a bitter idiot. There is no value in what he was saying at all. It was simply bitching and griping because someone stole the limelight.

He wasn't even criticising Haye as such, he was more begging people not to give him TOO much credit lol. Just makes himself look a knob.

[rusticraver]

It's because he's a snivelling little cunt.

[richard mossley]

I reckon this will be bigger than Hatton-Pac.

If it is the main reason will be the time of the fight.

I am worried that a Haye-Ruiz fight will be in Vegas.

[superfly98]

No sky just did an interview and Haye said he's 100% certain the fight will be in London :happy

But we've all heard this before :blood....once those money grabbbers smell the paper that Haye could generate im sure it'll be moved to Vegas

[leighton]

****** will be pissed if Haye did bigger numbers than Khan. I think he will do. You just walk around and people in the pubs were talking about the Haye fight all last week and again today. Some people were pissed about the fight as they paid for it and was expecting Haye to KO him but didn't. It happends.
I like Haye as he can sell his fights he will get up early in the morning to go on the BBC News and do any chat show he can and he will have his t-shirt on about the fight. If Froch done that he would of got bigger numbers than he did. Same goes for Khan.

As for were his next fight will be I am hopefull he will get the fight in London as if he fights either brother that 1 could well be headed to the US or even Germany. Heavyweights in the US dont sell and a fight with 1 of the brothers will have and get bigger numbers than Ruiz.

[Maza1987]

really hope the bbc or itv show this in a couple of weeks

Im inclined to think Haye is the top draw. If he can hold of the klits till the end of next year. That fight would be massive. Haye does sell a fight well

[rooq]

heard ****** on radio 5 this afternoon. didn't he say he had to switch off the fight after the 9th round and it was the worst hw title fight he'd seen?

also criticised hayes negative tactics. i think the bbc pundit then mentioned khan - kotelnik. unfortunately i had to pull into an underground carpark at this point and missed the rest of the interview

[G.A.V.]

Funny ****** was so butthurt about it, Khan did exactly the same thing as Haye did, except by round 11/12 he was pretty worn out and had to hold a lot because Kotelnik was getting closer, a bit of the opposite with Haye.

He's just so fucking butthurt it's unbelievable. Hasn't got a good word to say about Joe, Hatton, Haye, Froch, anyone who isn't A meer fucking Con.

Here's a link to Haye talking about his next fight

[Only registered and activated users can see links]

[threethirteen]

Bunce made a comment about potential negativity from certain figures in boxing - Fwank just can't help himself. He hasn't made anything out of it, so he's railing and bitter over the fact that Haye's done a good job.

With the excellent promotion Sky did (as much as it pains me to say it), and the memorable opponent who was a curiosity even for non-fans, I think it was an event that will have done good numbers on PPV.

According to ******, all of Haye's purse is connected to the PPV s

That's crap, frankly (haha). He'll have made a decent fight purse, but lower than Valuev, obviously. Haye and Booth were very smart about going fr Valuev instead of the Klits. Basically, from a position where they'd have made no money and lost any right to run Haye's career independently, they realised Valuev would make no real money for a third fight with Ruiz, and would probably see Haye as an easy option making it easier to negotiate. Haye was saleable in Europe after beating Mormeck.

So, Haye got a bigger purse, better terms and a more winnable fight against the giant, and is now in a better position to negotiate with the brothers K. Smart thinking and brave fighting again for the Londoner.

****** would never have the guts to take those sort of risks for any of his fighters, and its why people will always criticise the guys he has promoted.

:deal 100% correct imo. top post...

[slip&counter]

whats worse is the fools who continue to call him up knowing full well what his agenda is.

[Beeston Brawler]

Exactly.

I remember when Hatton was a world beater, potentially Britain's best ever when he beat Tszyu...... three months later, even before his next fight, Ricky was a lucky journeyman who cherrypicked an ageing champion.

Complete and utter dickhead. Clearly the truth lies somewhere in between, but it wasn't as if Hatton ducked Tszyu at any point, he was asking for the fight for ages, but ****** wouldn't make it.

Is this the same Frank ****** that is still upset that David Haye smashed Enzo Mac into future retirement!!!

[superfly98]

I just read that it could hit a million :admin ppv's

WOW

Frank must be boiling over with anger :lol::lol::lol::lol:

Cant wait to hear Franks opinion on Hayes PPV numbers

[achillesthegreat]

dailymail are saying it was 250k predicted but quickly passed half a million and is now looking set to me over a million.

[superfly98]

If it does do over a million I wonder where it ranks with other all time high Sky PPV's? Anyone know the numbers for Hatton - Mayweather....didn't that do 1.3 Million :huh

[Beeston Brawler]

A million?

Jeez......

How does that compare to say, Lennox Lewis's buys?

That will piss ****** right off, with Khan struggling to break the 100k mark.

[superfly98]

A million?

Jeez......

:lol::lol::lol: Didn't ****** blame the numbers on poor economic times.

Imagine if Haye had his own 24/7 show :admin:admin He'd be brilliant!!!!! :lol::lol:

[Beeston Brawler]

I'd blame it on Khan being almost as boring as Wlad to watch.

I refuse to buy Khan PPV's now he is with Roach, I ain't paying that slimy cunt's wages..... then again I only bought one and went out for the others. Would rather give my money to the taxman :deal

Consistently lining up feather fisted gimmes won't help either.

I don't think Haye would sell this many against anybody else..... a lot of people got it for the circus of a little guy trying to beat a monster :lol:

[slip&counter]

I think Haye could do similar numbers against a Klit, by then he would've balled over ruiz (they should get that on terestrial) maybe won SPOTY, his profile would be much higher (don't forget Haye was relatively unknown before this fight) the Klits are themselfs huge/fantastic shape and there's that unification angle.

[D-MAC]

A million?

Jeez......

How does that compare to say, Lennox Lewis's buys?

That will piss ****** right off, with Khan struggling to break the 100k mark.

Don't mention ******.

Bad things happen to posters/threads that mention ****** in them.:D

[Beeston Brawler]

Possibly.

Most people I know though aren't aware that there are two Klitschko brothers - they only know Vitali, with the Lewis angle and Danny Williams to a lesser degree.

These aren't what I'd call boxing fans, not even casual ones, but certainly many of them are ardent fans of one sport or another and are capable of having a reasonable debate about most sports, including boxing.

If you are talking purely commercially, I'd go with Vitali first - then the Wlad fight will definitely sell if Haye wins. Not many people that have seen Wlad before would be paid to watch him, let's be frank. Vitali isn't great box office either but at least you see a punch up and usually a KO.

:lol:

[threethirteen]

I don't enjoy watching Wlad or Vitali fight, but the Haye-Valuev fight, dull as it may have been due to styles and Haye's adoption of sensible tactics, was at least interesting because there were so many intangibles.

Have ANY of Wlad or Vitali's last opponents had even a hope of winning? Sam Peter was always dreadful, Gomez wasn't anything special, and Arreola was a fat useless lump. Anyone with simple understanding of the styles could see even a slowed down, broken up Vitali would have his way with them. Arreola's only success was keeping Vitali on the move.

Wlad's is even worse. Now, that's not their fault - they're just a lot better than the poor operators at HW, but Haye brings questions. He's faster than either brother, his style is awkward and his explosiveness is hard to adapt to. Add in his movement, reflexes and the excellent defence he had last night - I think he's a very tough opponent for either Klitschko.

Either way, there's a background story now for HBO and Sky to sell. The bad feeling over the pull outs, the worse feeling over the t-shirt, Haye going and winning a title... it's got drama written all over it.

[DamonD]

Worse thing is that the next upcoming fight, Vitali-Johnson, looks hopeless as well. I almost feel sorry for the K Bros having to fight such appalling competition. Johnson's resume is laughably thin, absolutely laughably, but by the simple dint of not losing yet he got himself a high enough rank enough to be a #6 contender.

The only positive I can offer is that these pretenders are being taken out of the picture one by one. I think 2009, while pretty poor for the quality of HW boxing, has been good for 'clearing the pool' a bit so I can hope for a better 2010.

As for Haye's PPV, even if it's half a mil that'd be tremendous. Every single buy will stick in Fwank's throat too.

[robpalmer135]

if it does over a million that the 2nd highest ever as only Hatton vs Mayweather did 1 mil buys.

But you cant even blame the pretenders theres literally nothing out there where these fighters can learn there trade. The gulf between the klistchko's and the rest of the division is staggering

[nip102]

the ring are saying he should fight adamek

[icemax]

I just read that it could hit a million :admin ppv's



If that is anywhere near close to the mark then Haye has just hit the bigtime

[icemax]

Don't mention ******.

Bad things happen to posters/threads that mention ****** in them.:D

Rumour has it that Frank was seen scurrying around Nuremburg on Saturday afternoon putting up "Fight Cancelled" posters :deal

[KOKid]

The two biggest boxing PPVs in the UK were:

1. Hatton vs. Mayweather - 1.4 million (2007)
2. Lewis vs. Tyson - 750,000 (2002)

[hit me HARDER]

Any definite figures yet? Over a million would be immense.

[rusticraver]

Read in the sun over 500k. Haye netting a 5er per buy

[superfly98]

If Haye does close to a million in these economic times. Thats a great achievement and the guy didnt even have 24/7 show

[Beeston Brawler]

I'd actually say that in these times you are more likely to get improved buys.

More people will choose to stay at home rather than travel to the fight, and others will order the fight and invite friends round..... get the beer and grub in, costs everyone £10-15 max, rather than going on the piss and spending £50 each.

[BIG WORM]

[Only registered and activated users can see links]

Hayes £20 million pound richer!!!!!!!!!

Thats loads of money for Haye...... fair play to him

[threethirteen]

Well, The Sun's article says that's what he's planning to make, not what he actually HAS made.

But £5m for Saturday's fight is excellent. He's approaching Hatton levels in media savvy.

Yeah I think your right but the people who usually attend these type of high profile fight s I feel are immune (maybe to strong a word) to econimc times. I mean the stadium was completely sold out and I think there was a backlist of people who got rejected.

So half a million PPV buys it is. Thats fantastic news for Haye, he deserves every penny:good

[Redondo5]

£5 Million for PPV where does the other £15 million come from?

[superfly98]

He also gets a cut of the commercial rate from things such as pubs. The pub round the corner from me was showing it so if he got around 900,000+ + the commercial cut that should take him close to the 7mill mark.....Hahaha I still dont see where the Sun got its 20million from but this is the SUN....nothing suprised me when it comes to that newspaper. :lol:

Maybe there taking into account future contract negotations :huh But im guessing that someone jus picked the number out of the hat.

[One Punch KO]

Kevin Mitchell in the Guardian ([Only registered and activated users can see links]) is saying 900k to a million buys, with Haye getting £5 from each.

[Utter1]

Funny ****** was so butthurt about it, Khan did exactly the same thing as Haye did, except by round 11/12 he was pretty worn out and had to hold a lot because Kotelnik was getting closer, a bit of the opposite with Haye.

He's just so fucking butthurt it's unbelievable. Hasn't got a good word to say about Joe, Hatton, Haye, Froch, anyone who isn't A meer fucking Con.


Add to that.......in a waterdown divisions (118 to 154) where he was just as big if not bigger than his man.

Haye had to fight someone 7 stone heavier......lets see Khan fight an average middle/super middle in Miranda........only 28 pounds or so....

[DamonD]

But you cant even blame the pretenders theres literally nothing out there where these fighters can learn there trade. The gulf between the klistchko's and the rest of the division is staggering
Some I can blame...some have not put in the years needed to succeed at the top level. Others don't deserve as much blame, they're just working with limited tools.

There's a dearth of amateur experience with so many guys.

[Utter1]

Exactly.

I remember when Hatton was a world beater, potentially Britain's best ever when he beat Tszyu...... three months later, even before his next fight, Ricky was a lucky journeyman who cherrypicked an ageing champion.

Complete and utter dickhead. Clearly the truth lies somewhere in between, but it wasn't as if Hatton ducked Tszyu at any point, he was asking for the fight for ages, but ****** wouldn't make it.


Hattton was a world champion without a doubt BUT after that he did cherry pick certain fighters etc...when he had the clout to fight whoever he wanted simply becuase of his own drawing power.

Hatton was a decent world champion, average in the grand scheme of things -

D. Haye has accomplished the same as Hatton now, if not more.

Only Lennox Lewis, Naz Hamed and Joe Calzaghe have achieved more in the last 20 years.

If Haye can go onto defeat both Klits...then he sits with Lennox as the two best fighters to come from the UK. I doubt that will happen, i can see him beating one of the Klits....in fact i think he will beat Vitali but Vladimir might have to many things going for him.......size plus skills.

Mind you, need to see How Haye fights J. Ruiz who has in this era proved to be one of the better top 10 heavies.....an incredible result against him....shows Haye is bringing a new level to the division....if he labours and wins then a change of analysis might be required.

I saw Haye against Solis, and make his debut on the BBC.....said from day one he will be a champion......proving it now.

[superfly98]

On BBC Now Hayes doing a live press conference

Once its finished i'll post a link to it im sure BBC will show the full thing on there site. Dont remember the BBC ever doing something like this so fingers crossed that they'll show a replay of the fight

There is benefits to millions domestically seeing your fights though, a one off like this can be very beneficial for his career at this stage.

I wouldnt be surprised if it was on terrestrial and his fights in the states agains the klitchkos get picked up by sky again(and hbo)

It's always cool when it's someone you've watched develop over years achieve big things. I had the same thing with Carl Froch and watching his early fights at the time...I seem to remember him being a much quieter guy back then too! :D

The site gives posters a 'forum" through which to express their opinions, so ultimately are responsible for the material posted on it. If they allowed someone to post child porn, they'd be charged for it along with the poster - as a ridiculously OTT comparison.

[threethirteen]

I'm pretty sure he did a million in the UK, plus 800,000 in the US. And he got a portion of that money too.

he made a HUGE amount for that fight.

With Froch i was not a believer....thought he was a Euro level man my self. I think he proven to be a decent world operator though now and i like the way he has gone about wanting to fight the best.

This is different to Hatton, Khan and Calzaghe.


Froch will lose to Abraham and Kessler unless he shows that his chin, and will to win are out of this world......and you will get people saying he is crap or whatever other nosence they want to carry on with.

The two fighters i watched develop and belived would be world champions and All time greats were Miguel Cotto and David Haye. Seen every Haye fight bar the one that dosent have a camera on it which i think was the beverly hills fight and 80 per cent of Cotto fights.

Im struggling to look at the lower levels to talent spot.....Boystov, Gamboa but then they are starting to makes waves already.

A. Povetkin was/is a man i thought out but the last 18 months have not gone according to plan and i thought he look falt and out of shape against Estrada.

He didn't really deserve to keep his world title after that pitiful performance against Dirrell. I can't see him beating Kessler, but maybe Abraham.

[Chud]

Was she any good?

gauging by the way the story was told, nothing special

He didn't really deserve to keep his world title after that pitiful performance against Dirrell. I can't see him beating Kessler, but maybe Abraham.

His chin is world class but even so i cant see him staying away from those big shots and he will probably get stopped by AA. Actually think Dirrell has a very good chance to beat Abraham.

800,000 seems to be the number.

That would be excellent.

:deal 100% correct imo. top post...

Seconded. Some people in boxing are like Waldorf and Statler from the muppets, they criticise from above. Take a look at the Saturday boxing pages in the Sun for Franks articles.

Haye was the man at Cruiserweight and is now a titleholder at Heavyweight. He is not the divisions number 1. I thought Valuev would have beaten him. However, credit to Haye and Booth. The marketing went great for the fight, they dropped the Klitschko fight, the 100% best thing they could have done.
Valuev wasn't for the true world championship but it wasn't for peanuts either. If Frank says Haye is no good, then he only has to look to Khan and his title.


The Klitschko's are dangerous, I think Haye would lose to both at the moment. Who needs them though, now Haye has the WBA title and plenty of support he can have fights in America and the UK and ignore the Klitschko's. Or they can fight him on his terms.

Hayemaker t-shirts are Fruit of the Loom.If you could print the design you could DIY cheaper.Also,to take the piss you could print the SBO logo on the upper chest and Park Plaza thing on the sleeve

800,000 is great numbers.Does anybody know the figures(roughly)for Khan/Barrera and Khan/Kotelnik?

[leforge]

Khan averages about 30,000 a fight if that!
