Filed under: Blue Corner , Featured Videos , News , UFC The numbers keep going up on “The Money Fight.” The boxing spectacle showdown between Conor McGregor and Floyd Mayweather drew 6.7 million pay-per-view buys around the world, smashing the record set by Mayweather’s “Fight of the Century” in 2015 against Manny Pacquiao, UFC President Dana White told The Wall Street Journal’s “The Unnamed Podvideocast” (via Youtube ). That puts the overall TV revenue generated for the fight somewhere between $602,665,000 – the number if every buyer purchased a standard-definition broadcast at $89.95, which would be a highly unlikely scenario – and $669,665,000 if everyone paid $99.95 for the high-definition feed.
