The famous fight that took place this past Sunday between Floyd Mayweather and Logan Paul had less viewers than you might have guess. 

According to USA Today Sports, the PPV numbers came in way lower than expected, having only around 1 million people that officially bought into the show. At $50 per screening, thats $50 million, with Mayweather getting allegedly 50% at 25 million and Paul getting $5 million. 

 

While the numbers are fairly disappointing, they do sort of make sense when you consider just how many people have openly admitted to pirating the fight. Bootleg streaming has become a major problem for PPV events last year and this fight was no exception. Did you stream in officially at pay up or did you pirate the fight?
