Errol Spence Jr vs Shawn Porter Sells 13k Tickets, $2.3M Live Gate

But your ticket sales info even counts tickets at brokers who end up selling them way cheaper or eating them. Or casino buying tickets to giveaway. It’s not 100% legit Huh? The post was about UK being way more secretive. The hell you talking about? Are you disagreeing that it is harder to get this type of information in the UK?

Nah, UK is WAY more secretive with their information. You still get A LOT more in the US. Literally not one UK reporter will get their hands on a commission report or even have a feel for PPV buys.

No one hates Spence! And if they do they are irrelevent those days are OVER! Spence has his homegrown fans, his fans combined with another boxer's fan base you have a big fight. No need to appeal to people who hate you! Take the Canelo route and appeal to your natural fans. Spence is doing it the right way!

Finally they got the commission report in. Sold - 12,671 Exempt - 1,390 Live Gate - $2,257,155.00 ... Last time I chcked, Staples Center has a capacity of 21,000 seats for the boxing events!...

I remember GGG was called a star for doing 150k PPV buys and a $1.5 gate. GGG was getting over 1 million viewers on premium cable. He's a proven star.

Not according to that list that's just been posted in this very thread. Prices vary from fight to fight obviously. Still 90k fans in Wembley to see AJ doesn’t hold a gate record or anything. That being said all arenas are stuck with around the same number of premium seats, it’s the amount of cheaper seats that can only differ. Ud have to see a uk and a Vegas fight both with the same amount of ppv buys, and same amount of tickets sold and then analyze the gates.

Shocked at exactly what? The gate number? the revenue

L-O-L, if you believe he only made 2M. Those other sites are just using the reported figure amount. The man was making more than 2M against O'Campo, yet you're saying he only made 2M against Porter in a PPV fight? Hilarious, so are you then saying he only made 3M against Mikey since that was the reported purse? these guys wont "buy" something they dont want to "buy"....no use in trying to convince these dumb fgts....yeah spence only made 2 mil against porter! yayyyy!

I’m not buying it. All other real sources quote only $2M guarantee and neither of them ever disputed that. L-O-L, if you believe he only made 2M.

From Coppinger's chat. He said his guarantee is $7-8M which is a little less than his 9M guarantee against Mikey but that fight was also predicted to do more buys and better gate…..Which it did. Edit: Here is what he wrote in response to being asked if there is any chance Spence/DSG is on regular FOX: I’m not buying it. All other real sources quote only $2M guarantee and neither of them ever disputed that.

im shocked. Kudos to spence Shocked at exactly what? The gate number?

Source? I didn’t hear anything about Spence being guaranteed $7M. From Coppinger's chat.

Edit: Here is what he wrote in response to being asked if there is any chance Spence/DSG is on regular FOX: @Tyler S. I don't see them budging, hard to do so when Spence is being guaranteed in the neighborhood of $7/8 million

same with USA. Especially when mgm buys a few thousand tix to como to their players. Still counts as a ticket sold Nah, UK is WAY more secretive with their information.

E-mail from the athletic commission. Don't worry, soon enough boxingscene and other sites will start posting this information. im shocked. Kudos to spence

Spence's guarantee was around 7-8M, NOT 2M. Reported purse is not the same as guaranteed purse. Fury's reported purse was 1M last fight when he is making over 10M a fight with his ESPN deal. Source? I didn’t hear anything about Spence being guaranteed $7M.

Not necessarily. On some UK cards I bet it goes higher than this, ala Joshua. But overall I bet most are decently priced. The problem is no one can get the REAL numbers to their cards. UK is VERY secretive in everything and none of their reporters get these types of reports or even PPV numbers.same with USA. Especially when mgm buys a few thousand tix to como to their players. Still counts as a ticket sold

As expected the originally announced attendance was greatly inflated. This gate is comparable to a very low end UFC PPV. That midget TJ Dillashaw did better numbers than this at Staples Center. GGG with his two PPV flops also managed to do $3.5 million gate against Jacobs and $2 million against Lemieux. It's highly unlikely that with these kinds of numbers Spence-Porter got the 350k buys Mike Coppinger had claimed. The true number of buys is probably somewhere between the Arum number and the BoxingScene number.

Isn't that what was reported? $2M each plus a percentage of PPV. https://www.forbes.com/sites/joshkatzowitz/2019/09/27/errol-spence-vs-shawn-porter-odds-records-purses-predictionboxing-biz/#508d15c2859d http://fightnights.com/2019/09/27/4690/spence-porter-purses-weigh-in-results-revealed Spence's guarantee was around 7-8M, NOT 2M.

Earning just 2M each? Really? What kind of numbers are you looking for? Official numbers weren't released for Spence/Garcia either. 275-300k sounds about right.
