Look at the top PPV buys, its dominated by black boxers.
Abel sanchez is actling like GGG sells PPV's when in reality he doesnt. LOL
If you notice it is only Floyd , because people dont like him and want to see him lose, and heavyweights. It isnt all brothas dude. Only a handful. Name me one black fighter today, besides Anthony Joshua who can sell as many pay per views as Canelo. Look at Spence/ Garcia. Garcias name will help that one. Plus i bet you in Dallas there will be as many people if not more pulling for Garcia as there is Spence.
Yes but specifically Abel Sanchez brought up this whole debate based on his interviews fof if GGG would Charlo. “Black fighter’s can’t sell” with Abel contextualizing Floyd for Charlo is rather very ridiculous. He said he molded Terry Norris to Mexican Style and that’s just Abel having his usual ego trip
I get that and Abel’s just talking sh.it like he does in interviews he doesn’t even want Golovkin to fight Charlo because he knows what’ll probably happen , so him sh.itting on him makes him look wack .
Its not a black thing it’s a not enough fighters want to f.uck up their opponet thing . To build a fan base boxers need to want to f.uck up their opponets Look the most popular active American fighters or the ones with some buzz on the way up Crawford, Wilder , Tank , Charlos , Spence. All of these guys go into the ring and almost always beat down their opponet. Fans don’t want or appreciate skill they want raw violence and KOs Even guys like Mikey he can legit crack but has the deadly combination of being super skilled as well but he can usually lay the beat down and get the guy out of there. It’s just as you face better fighters you’re not going to get the KO as often but on your way up you need to lay the beat down on your opponents
That’s the easiest way for a fighter to build some buzz is to be a killer , Having elite skills and just box to a decision doesn’t translate into a fan base , that’s the part I agree with Abel
In some ways I think what Abel’s saying is true it’s not a race thing it’s just most American boxers that are any good are black
Its not a race thing but Too many fighters especially after they take a L who came after Mayweather tried to duplicate the Money Mayweather style when he moved up to WW and try to win by pure boxing and not going for the kill
A boxer has to use their strengths and not everyone can be a chin checker but still there’s not enough guys that want to f.uck their opponet up
Today Few boxers have that Crawford/Tank / Golovkin/ Wilder attitude where they’d rather hurt you and get you out of there early most are happy just go 12 and win on the cards. If you have to go the distance fine but today there’s too many boxers that fight and not enough fighters that box
Charlo's not exciting to me. Too low level. Jacobs not exciting neither, too flawed. The issue is these guys try to box. Should have put crawford in there.
What were Crawfords' numbers?
50-60k???
So you're saying Crawford's numbers are higher than GGG?
Let's be real here, what black bruva is dominating the PPV game? Don't say Floyd either cause last time it was the Caucasian bruvas that bought the card. Bruvas are too broke to buy anything. Real talk.
The African American consumer dollar is getting stronger, bruva. Just ask Marvel. I'm not even going to address the irony of a "TainoGod" (lol) discussing income.

Thank God for Hollywood, they released that film to break the stereotype, it was nothing to do with trying to make a **** load of money.
Of course you missed the point, you always DO!

There was a phase when a lot of Black fighters were trying to do their worst Money Mayweather imitation, but thankfully we're mostly out of that now. A lot of people just get triggered by Black anythings really.

VERY IGNORANT Comment from Abel and it is BAD For Business! You have Hollywood trying to break that Stereotype with Black Panther and here is this IDIOT running him mouth and saying stupid stuff that will turn off Casuals from boxing even more. You want EVERYBODY watching you fights not just Mexicans. The biggest Draws in boxing was able to get the attention of ALL not just their own People. :nonono:
Ok mr French Canada
What the hell does that even mean?
Could've easily included Stevenson, Bermane Stiverne or Jean Pascal to the mix. Never seen a Haitian-Canadian fighter in a boring fight.
