According to a report from BoxingScene, Mayweather vs. McGregor raked in 4.4 million domestic PPV buys. This would leave it second behind 2015's 'Fight of the Century' which brought in around 4.6 million buys.
If this figure is accurate, it's an incredible feat considering it will be only the second fight ever to break the 3 million mark. Taking third and fourth respectively are Mayweather's 2007 prizefight against Oscar De La Hoya which drew around 2.5 million and his 2013 bout against Canelo Alvarez which raked in 2.2 million. Credit to Mayweather, he currently sits atop the 'A' side throne of sports. He has been involved in the four biggest PPV events in sports history despite his style being considered 'boring'. The man's arguably a better promoter than he is a boxer, and he ended his career with a pristine 50-0 record as perhaps the greatest talent of his generation.Anthony Joshua leaves hospital & pays respect to friends killed in car crash
