No way, they were expecting to hit the 1 million mark on PPV ordered for the Chuck vs Wand PPV. The following day of UFC 61 UFC's yahoo search went up like 60% or a huge number like that and Wandy's went up an unreal 440%, people were doing their homework after seing this mean fucker stare Chuck down with that hatred in and fire in his eyes as he talked all sorts of brutal shit to Chuck.
This will/would've been the biggest event in UFC history to date.
I really hope they work every thing out. Pay Wandy a percentage of the gate, he is going to be bringing so many followers to the PPV.
Pride actually may want more money, they may be trying to negotiate for a cut of the PPV and willing to promote it in Japan becasue if the Japanese fans are going to ever watch a UFC event this would be the one for them to watch.
