Bob Arum is a Big, Fat Liar

Last Week, Arum was insisting that the Pacquiao/Hatton PPV would not only do "much better than expected," but that it could very well break the Top 3 all-time list and possibly even reach the 2 million mark.

Well, now that the dust has settled and real, trusted industry sources have had a chance to get their hands on the numbers, the real buy rate is likely between 800,000 and 900,000. Still above expectations, but well below the top events of all-time and even behind Mayweather/Hatton in '07.

The BTBC apologizes for taking Bob Arum at face value...It won't happen again.
