$7.4 million was the live gate.
$60 SD & $70 HD was the cost for the PPV in America.
I guess Canelo isn't as big of a star as peole say he is. Those 330k estimates sound real accurate insteas of the 400-600 BS.
Maybe he really did sell around 200000 PPVs for the Liam Smith fight.
600k PPV's is about right.
Average PPV price $65 x 600,000 = 39 mil
39 - 50% (Cable Providers and HBO cut) = 19.5 mil
19.5 mil + 7.4 mil gate = 26.9 mil
As I understand it HBO gets 10% of the PPV revenue off the top and the cable providers get 50% (so 55% rather than 50% for cable providers and HBO cut) but yes I think you are right that these figures are consistent with around 600,000 pay per view buys.
The $15 mil is a much better deal than Khan got. He's getting 150% more money, would the PPV do 150% more sales (1.5 mil total sales)?
No need for guesswork, that's what upside is for, a$$wipe
We know that. If they did Canelo would have offered Golovkin $2million like he made for the Lemieux PPV instead of the $15 mil Golovkin turned down.
600k is poorly selling BTW? :dunce:
Didn't you say Golovkin should earn the same as Khan a while back? It's been confirmed Khan only got $6 mil are you changing your position now?
What? No I didn't say that dumbfcuk. I said if a clown nobody like Khan gets upside, of course the much more legit, much bigger draw should get it
This isn't a huge ppv though. The numbers prove that.
It's the biggest fight in boxing. Those are never flat fees. Heck Khan and Chavez get upside from Canelo, and Lemieux and Jacobs from GGG, and those aren't that big. It's extremely unusual
What point were you making? That Canelo should make less, the same, what?
I don't think you know yourself. :rofl:
OK I'll spell it out, cretin:. Purses earned for a poorly selling sideshow don't determine the purses for the biggest fight in boxing.
I don't need to have inside info. Guys who do like Kevin Iole says they did around 450, other experienced journalists said the number was closer to 300, maybe 325.
No way in hell did this do 600k, otherwise HBO would have announced it, which of course they didn't because neither Khan nor Canelo can draw that kind of buys.
Kevin Iole has no sources he just makes it up got busted one time taking the ESPN numbers and Glasiers numbers and split the difference and pawned that number off as his own. very scientific lol. And HBO didn't release the numbers for GGG or anyone else in years and clowns said did 97k. Anyone with a twitter account can make up whatever they want. But according to the real numbers released because the Golden Boy Haymon lawsuit Golden Boy took home 27.7m. Before Golden Boy get's a check cable providers take half the money from PPV and the numbers Isaac Clarke provided match up to about 600k. So do you have anything else to bring to the table besides idiots making up numbers on twitter?
No it's not bad but there's never been a huge ppv with flat fees involved and there's a reason for that.
one can also say that there is never been a fighter with a history of less than 150k ppvs to reject a 15 million offer, really hope this isnt the case so that we can all watch the fight...
No it's not bad but there's never been a huge ppv with flat fees involved and there's a reason for that.
This isn't a huge ppv though. The numbers prove that.
You have inside knowledge?
The numbers back up 600k claims. Numbers >>>>>>>> Your opinion.

lol you easily owned the entire thread and made the poster look silly....:hail::hail::hail:
You can make a better case for Golovkin accepting that offer. He would still be making more than those other guys. 15 million guarantee doesn't sound to bad against a guy people insist isn't that big a draw.

Canelo no more the A Side, GGG surpassed Canelo in popularity last year. (probably because the ducking and lies from his team)

600k is fake as fook.
It did around 300 at best.

Yo was Canelo Smith PPV for real? I seriously don't remember
