Jake Paul’s not pulling much! His PPV sales would compete with the domestic Octagon
YouTuber and boxer Jake Paul is constantly bragging about how his fights make a huge amount of money. But it seems that’s not entirely true, as evidenced by PPV (pay per view) sales, or buying a stream. They are so low that even the domestic Octagon could compete with them.
YouTuber and boxer Jake Paul is constantly bragging about how his fights make a huge amount of money. But it seems that’s not entirely true, as evidenced by PPV (pay per view) sales, or buying a stream. They are so low that even the domestic Octagon could compete with them.
Jake Paul is still undefeated and has won his fifth fight in boxing. So from that perspective he has to be happy, but it’s a different story in terms of PPV sales.
Paul’s bout with Tyron Woodley was heavily promoted, so it’s a big surprise that only around 65,000 PPVs were sold.
Meanwhile, Paul is followed by over 18 million people on Instagram. The reason for the low sales is probably mainly due to the fact that there are still illegal streams where the fight was watched by several times more people.
This basically confirmed the recent speculations that many fighters have pointed out, one of them being Jorge Masvidal.
Thus, these numbers can be rivaled by, for example, the domestic organization Oktagon if Karlos Vémola fights and the best fighters are on the card with him.
It’s amazing that a domestic organization is able to have even half the PPV of a tournament that is written about all over the world.
