Seven thousand seats were empty at Las Vegas's T-Mobile Arena, generating $5.4 million rather than over 72.2 million as expected.
Floyd Mayawather's spectacular victory over Conor McGregor failed to provide a record record on the tickets sold.
The match won by Mayweather on 26 August was expected to exceed the record 72.2m dollars won by tickets for a boxing match. This record was held by the metric between Mayweather and Manny Pacquiano in 2015.
But the data has shown that 7 thousand seats were empty in Las Vegas's T-Mobile Arena, generating $5.4 million, the second most profitable boxing game in boxing history.
As far as television sales are concerned, the data will be released soon, but they are expected to exceed revenues from the Mechi with Pacquiaon.
Inflows from sales as well as from sponsorships are expected to top the record $620m total, reached by the 2015 mechi.
Mayweather won the tenth round of the match.
