Looks like this fight needs some more hype.
In every Pacquaio's PPV match here provided by my Cable company, the average price is around $25-$30.
On July 21 fight, the price is just ranging to $18-$20. What just happened.
Keith Thurman isn't really a huge name, and his previous fight was with Adrian Broner, who I think is signed by TMT.
Based on that alone there probably isn't as much money being poured into advertising the event, and they can probably tell based on how many seats were sold.
If that number was pretty low, then they can see demand is low and hence will need to lower the PPV price to compensate.
I quite disagree. Thurman has a big name in the boxing world. One of the peak boxers today who still haven't loss in their professional career. He truly dominates the Welterweight class. That's why I'm confused why the PPV cost is cheap here compare on MP's previous fight.
Well then, majority of PPV viewers aren't really a boxing enthusiast that's why it turned out like this. In the world of the boxing business, even how good boxing stats is or a champion at any weight class, a boxer has to be popular and attention seeker. Clearly, Pacquaio once again is the reason why this fight will be sold out if ever.
Few weeks to go before the fight and I think that's enough time to boost sales on PPV locally and internationally.
