De La Hoya-Pacquiao Expected to Draw 1.5 Million Buys

December 10, 2008 by Staff

Kevin Iole reports that indications are that last Saturday’s fight between Oscar De La Hoya and Manny Pacquiao drew 1.5 million pay-per-view buys. If that number holds up it would have to be considered a major success for Golden Boy and HBO Boxing. Depending on where the respective numbers settle at, it is possible that the boxing number will nearly double the buys received by UFC 91.

I feel like crap tables minimums will be raised to $500

@esidery That $13B will be carried by most of the residents. It always starts off saying these owners/investors will pay then once they start to build they start asking the city/state for money.

The NBA will soon announce the Walton Laurie group as the expansion bid winners for Las Vegas with launch in 2028-29.

Nancy Walton Laurie, Bill Laurie and Raiders minority owner Egon Durban would build a new arena.

Including the arena, their official bid is around $13 billion.
