Comments Thread For: Terence Crawford-Shawn Porter Pay-Per-View Price Set At $69.99 On ESPN+

I’m thinking like 29.95 myself but I can wait to see for free on this one, dam Bob!

I must admit that I like that price a whole better. Hell! I would buy that one myself!

I'm not arguing about their respective popularity if they can justify the price point they have for spence coming off a crash and ever mediocre Garcia then they can surely justify the price point they've set for this fight being a P4P top 5 and equally as mediocre as Garcia, Porter.

I think people will buy it because a lot of PBC/haymon fanboys think for some bizarre reason Porter is going to stop him and Crawford fanboys think the same things, there is certainly intrigue to be had in the fight enough to generate buys at least IMO.

Though maybe not, often times fanboys are the ones streaming and chatting racist ish in said streams.

Erroll Spence, Jr is a huge Draw at the AT&T Cowboy stadium in Texas. He typically sells around 40-50K tickets each time he fights there.

LOL. I didn't pay for the Canelo/Plant fight, no way will I pay for this nonsense.

I know. You wanted to spite Al Haymon

[champion4ever]

That hasn’t happen yet so until you have final numbers, please and I say please STFU! Thank you very much

Shlwtime spent $50,000,000 on 2 guys. So I get that price but this fight is gonna cost what? $10 mill and what to charge us almost the same???

You are exactly right! Bob Arum and Top Rank are attempting to fleece us boxing fans with this price. At $70 a pop it won't take a lot of pay-per-view buys in order for him to make a profit off of a $10M purse split. If the fight does at least 200K; It would gross at least $14M and that is not even counting the live gate. Which should at least double the fight's cost.

These guys are unknown and unpopular among the casual fan. They are hardly even known or have been heard of by the crossover mainstream audience. Neither guy put meat in the seats and neither guy is a PPV attraction. So my question is; Who is going to purchase tickets to this fight and who are going to purchase the pay-per-views?

Call me crazy, but I think this is PPV worthy. P4P # 2 fighter vs. A former WBC Champion, who only lost to Spence by SD! Now Crawford vs. Khan, that was some BS! Lol!

this is an ABC Wide World of Sports level fight or HBO Championship Boxing show

[killakali]

When this fight was announced I said it wasn’t PPV worthy and the usual “anti” type incels in here had a collective conniption….now look at the comments. And the incels are largely nowhere to be seen

So u saying spence vs Fanny and Spence vs Porter aint ppv worthy ans u are definitely saying tank vs Cruz aint belong on ppv

[N!Ck F.]

Crawford and porter are not draws. Good fight for hardcore fans but $69.99+Tax? Come on that’s absolutely absurd.

Well that's very good news. I am happy for Bob. Now he should have no problem recouping and recovering all of the money he claims he has lost on Terence Crawford's fights.
