Trinidad-Jones PPV Numbers Are In…

by Kris on January 24th, 2008

The numbers for last weekend’s Jones-Tridad boxing match are in above expected at 500,000 buys.

The numbers were near career-highs for both fighters according to ESPN.com:

For Jones, the figure was his second-best pay-per-view performance. Only his heavyweight title win against John Ruiz in 2003 did more business, 604,000 buys.

The fight was Trinidad’s fourth-best pay-per-view performance behind only his record-setting fight with De La Hoya in 1999 (a then-non-heavyweight record 1.4 million buys), his epic battle against Fernando Vargas in a 2000 junior middleweight unification fight (560,000 buys) and his 2005 loss to Wright (520,000).
