A Shawn Porter fight is as tough sell.

Its not the app.. the app already has a tremendous amount of subscribers.. the fact of the matter is that Bud Crawford is ugly, no women wanna see him fight.. he possesses no charisma to attract the casual fan.. and he’s from Omaha freakin Nebraska, so he’s not drawing from a large city fanbase.. oh well, he’s overpaid

Canelo garnered 800,000 PPV buys by fighting on showtime.. perhaps if Crawford wants more money then he should have his next PPV on showtime where they have a large audience in the urban market and if he fights Spence or Charlo then that'll be over a million buys

You're smoking crack if you think Crawford vs anyone in or near his weight class does anywhere near a million buys.

Not the app.
People tired of paying for **** events.
(One Main is not worth the casuals time)

Very Easy formula..

First of all, everyone who's anyone knows Crawford is a racist. He only associates with black people. So who's exactly he talking about when he says these people don't know how to get an app? It's black people , nuff said. Figure that out. Also Crawford hasnt beat anyone, ever of note. Don't buy this crap that Porter was a worthy opponent. It was his last fight and everyone knew it. On the record it will go down as a victory over a 34 yr old in his last fight of his career. A fighter that Spence has already beaten a few years earlier. Nobody was fooled but a few blacks. Nobody with 1/2 a pea in their skull are fooled by Crawford. Nobody. As his PPV numbers reflect. If the blacks cared or knew about Crawford and cared about this mismatch, they would've found a way to get this app. Or whatever they had to do. Bottom line? They didn't care. They probably didn't even know the fight was on .

I think the best thing about white supremacy is that some people think black people can be racist to white people.

Modern racial classifications are constructs invented by 16th century Portuguese slavers and a 16th century German race scientists.

You can learn all this for yourself, btw. If you know how to read

Damn, Crawford's own friends and family are making excuses for not watching his fight. You can't expect to build a fanbase when you only fight a live opponent every few years.

TOP 10 Boxing PPV fights all time: (1) May v Pac 4.6 mill buys revenue 410 mill (2) May v Mac 4.3 mill buys revenue 400 mill (3) May v Nelo 2.2 mill buys revenue 150 mill (4) May v ODLH 2.5 mill buys revenue 136 mill (5) Tyson v LennOX 2 mill buys revenue 112 mill (6) Tyson v Holyfield II 1.9 mill buys revenue 100 mill (7) Tyson v Mcneeley 1.5 mill buys revenue 96 mill (8) May v Cotto 1.5 mill buys revenue 94 mill (9) Tyson v RJJ 1.6 mill buys revenue 84 mill (10) Holyfield v Foreman 1.4 mill buys revenue 80 mill .......... These are what smart people refer to as BIG FACTS el burro! If Mexicans are truly the ones spending money on their fighters then why aren't there more in the top ten. It seems like the only two that are in the top ten were there on PPVweather's coattail. When casuals in America think about boxing they think Ali, Tyson, Sugar Ray, RJJ and PPVweather (and ODLH). They don't know who Canelo or JCC is, but I do because I'm a diehard. I will admit that "those" people (Mexicans) are very diehard fans that keep boxing relevant on the west coast. Blacks keep it relevant on the east coast, mid west and south. Blacks used to be the biggest supporters of boxing way back in the day but now our passions are with the NBA NFL and NCAA football and basketball where we thrive and get paid very handsomely. If this was 1960 Lebron James would be HW champ. But now why would he want to get punched in the face all day when he can play Bball and gross over a billion dollars in earnings. Do a lil research before you post punto!

Blacks aren't the highest percentage of people in this country. Their work participation rate is not the best, to put it very lightly. Please show some stats on how they keep boxing relevant and purchase all these PPV's. What you spouted is pure bullsheeit and very comical. Do a little research before you post

Hey oldskoolg if the world just focused on FACTS it would be a much better place. Unfortunately everyone wants to force their own fake reality onto the rest of us. SAD!!!

The irony

A Shawn Porter fight is as tough sell.

A Terrence Crawford fight is an even tougher sell
