Comments Thread For: Gary Russell On Financial Upside Of Gervonta Davis Fight: It'll Sell More Than Him And Barrios

Won’t happen…Davis/Floyd wont risk that 0. Will keep lining up the mismatches against b-level fighters with HISPANIC last names to sell the ppv..cant do it w/o hispanic fans…its the Pbc/Floyd formula.

Hispanics ain't selling no PPVs unless your name is Canelo. No other Mexican fighter is even fighting on PPV on his own.

Was OBVIOUSLY speaking of Hispanics as a B side OPPONENT…look at Broners career opponents, Bertos opponents, Floyds opponents. Davis last 3 cherry-picks - Gamboa, Lsc, Barrios…u think thats by chance or an OBVIOUS pattern? His next opponent will probably b another mismatch like Abner Mares(another Hispanic) - who was the initial opponent pre eye injury b4 Lsc.

Tank isn't going to lose to a career featherweight

most likely wont lose to Russell…but is much safer to fight a slower less skilled career FW like Lsc who carries a huge Hispanic fanbase.

And, if you look at the make up of Gervonta's audience in the arenas, nothing about it is close to Hispanic. It's clear who is buying his PPV as well. Which Hispanic fighter is a PPV? Even Canelo fights on a subscription app.

Rematch Lomo and regain your credibility

Hmmmm Russell Jr is making a move on trying to sell or make a potential fight more financially lucrative in the long run, that being said it's rare to hear much from Russell Jr much these days but it's nice to see him trying to set up a good bout..

Jamel Herring Shakur Stevenson Colbert Farmer Albert Bell, I'd like to see all these guys beat on Russell. But I'd also like to see superbantam Cool Boy crush him.

I'm now honestly more interested in Davis-William Zepeda or Cruz Gonzalez next than seeing Russell's ass KOed back to 126, crying BS. He should prove himself against other guys at 130 and get a fight at 135 first before Davis. Russell is all bark. He ain't planning on doing any of that. He should STFU until he does something worth talking about. Even go rematch Loma at 135 or fight Santa Cruz at your own weight. Do something. Sounds like he's desperate for a cashout.

Last thing: None of the haters here would give Davis credit for fucking up Russell bad. He'd be another non-hispanic flyweight after the fight.
