Okay, so I’ve been seeing a lot of chatter online about the Haney vs. Prograis fight and how many PPV buys it actually got. Numbers were being thrown around, and frankly, it all felt a bit like a guessing game. So, I decided to do a little digging myself, you know, put on my detective hat and see what I could find.

My Little Investigation
First, I started hitting up all the usual boxing news sites. You know, the big ones, the smaller blogs, even some forums. I scoured through articles, comments, everything. The problem? Everyone seemed to have a different number! Some were saying it was a flop, others were claiming it did okay, and a few were even suggesting it was a massive success. It was a total mess.
Then, I tried to find some official statements. I figured, surely the promoters or the network would release some concrete data, right? Wrong! It was like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Lots of “sources say” and “estimates suggest,” but nothing definitive. Very frustrating.
I even went down the social media rabbit hole. I checked Twitter, Instagram, even Facebook (yeah, I know, old school). I was hoping to find some leaked info or maybe some insider chatter. No dice. Plenty of opinions, but no hard facts.
Putting the Pieces Together (Sort Of)
After all that digging, here’s what I think happened. I can’t say for sure, because, well, there’s no official number. But based on everything I read, and piecing together the most reliable-sounding reports, it seems like the PPV buys were… underwhelming. Probably not a total disaster, but definitely not what they were hoping for.
It seems like the pre-fight hype didn’t translate into actual buys. Maybe it was the price point? Maybe it was the competition with other events? Or maybe people just weren’t that interested in the matchup. It’s hard to say for sure.
- Started with the well-known boxing websites.
- Tried find offical statements.
- Searched on social media.
Honestly, the whole thing is a bit of a mystery. I wish I could give you a solid number, but it just doesn’t seem to be out there publicly. I guess we’ll have to wait and see if anything official ever gets released. Until then, it’s all just * one thing’s that the PPV buys were underwhelming.
If I hear anything,I will be sure to share.
