The YouTuber-turned-boxer's fight with Fury reportedly generated 500,000 pay-per-view buys and noted that the fight with Diaz doubled that total domestically. He mentioned that from the business standpoint, the 20% price increase had no effect on the number of buys and it was a commercial success, writing:

"2x residential PPV buys in the US even though it was priced 20% higher than Fury...5x commercial PPV revenue in the US"

Based on the numbers, it appears as though there is still plenty of interest in 'The Problem Child' fighting MMA fighters in boxing. It remains to be seen what the official buyrate will be, but according to Jake Paul's Instagram story, the fight with Nate Diaz generated over one million pay-per-view buys.
