Klitschko-Williams PPV: Closer To
75,000 PPV Buys Than 120,000?
Much to Boxingtalk's surprise, the December 11 Vitali Klitschko-Danny Williams PPV did not generate 120,000 PPV homes as HBO has previously indicated. Several reliable sources have informed Boxingtalk.com that Klitschko-Williams generated less than 100,000 PPV buys. We also understand the actual number of homes that purchased the fight was closer to 75,000 than 120,000. Evidently,
the American public isn't buying into HBO and Ring Magazine's classification of Klitschko as "the heavyweight champion." Several calls have been placed to HBO's PPV whiz Mark Taffet, none of which have yet to be returned.
K2 Promotions, the promoter didn't have the exact number for Boxingtalk.com when we called them over the weekend. We will continue to keep you updated, so stay tuned.
HBO Denies Inflating Klitschko-Williams PPV #
Just minutes ago, HBO PPV whiz Mark Taffet told Boxingtalk.com that the numbers for the Kltischko-Williams PPV were not inflated by HBO at all and that the rumors to the contrary running rampant throughout the boxing industry are completely false. Despite several reliable sources informing Boxingtalk.com differently, Taffet, who stated that he was "the only real source for the real numbers", also insisted that the show will end up generating more than the 120,000 PPV buys intially relaseed by HBO because they've yet to tally the Puerto Rican PPV buys.

na sicher, puerto rico katapultiert jetzt diesen flopp noch in andere sphären.
den deutschen zuschauer kann man immer noch für blöde verkaufen. wer kauft klitschko eigentlich überhaupt den ring magazine gürtel ab??? doch nur die ard und hbo.
am besten gefällt mir ja die ubpsche vermeidungstaktik. hätte nur noch gefehlt, dass bönte telefon und faxe ausgeschaltet hat und sich wie damals kohl im urlaub befindet.
