What numbers are Jones-Gane gonna pull?

[Kung Fu Kowboy]

Bigger than the Soccer World Cup...

 

[SG123]

Maybe 500k - Jon was never a mega seller, he was frequently in the 500k-700k range prior to the ESPN deal, after which PPV numbers went down significantly

 

[Elvis.]

800-950k

 

[VonSupervillain]

I don't think it breaks a million. I'd say the ceiling is around 800-900K.

 

[Credo]

Three fiddy?

 

[JKS]

It's gonna do a 1 mill +.

I think the UFC is gonna push the SH$T out of this event.

 

[BEATDOWNS]

Why isn't the first response 'tree fiddy'

Sherdog is dying.

 

[Cowboy Kurt Angle]

Jones has never pulled 1 million buys highest was the second dc fight which pulled 860,000 buys and that’s what I think this ppv will sell

 

[Oscar Madison]

I'll Cowboy-up and get the PPV if Dana stacks the card with more intrigue and violence.

Pico Jones is an attractive sideshow that might be worth the price due to his absurd history in and out of the cage. But Gane fights aren't really my thing -- Tai made the last fight fun and watchable.

Now that Cyril has felt the burn of his last Title Shot Loss, as well as Tai's electric shock of HW power that stunned Cyril into KO or be KO'd violence -- hopefully a more offensive and vengeful Gane will emerge to smite his opponents.

 

[Make Sherdog Great Again]

'bout tree fiddy.

 

[Uncommon Valor]

600k-800k.

 

[Dorkman]

800k - 1m are the usual Jones numbers against a credible opponent.

The most he's ever listed as selling is 860k for Cormier 2, and he's only sold over 800k or above one other time in his career.

 

[TempleoftheDog]

800k - 1m are the usual Jones numbers against a credible opponent.

Jones has NEVER done over 860K (DC).

He settled into about 600K at the end. That’s probably a good guess. Give or take 100K. It’s really hard to say. It could bomb. Do people still care about the guy?

 

[pick999]

450k

 

[gladiator40]

Finally a fight to watch.

 

[FriskyRandy]

I think it's just 500k at most. Jones hasn't been in the spotlight for anything positive. It is probably going to sell a little less than the amount with Francis. Francis isn't a ticket seller. Gane is less popular than Francis so the whole fight is based on Jones carrying it.

Since when does it matter if it's positive reasons he's in the spotlight? Still sells fights.

 

[nintey]

700-800K

Came to say 750k. Will the $80 price tag be in effect by the though? Might hurt it.

 

[burningspear]

about half of jones/francis

 

[Senzo Tanaka]

Under a million. Jones is a draw but only with the right opponent (like DC) and no one knows who Gane is but the hardcores. I'm guessing 750k.

 

[Ayreon]

JJ at HW is a huge event that can carry at least 600k for himself

It needs another huge co-main to break the 1 mln but I don't see any on the line
