    Davis KOes, Rolly's mouth and forcing girls to grab his junk antics sold the fight if this is true.

      Isn’t that the case with TV ratings and ppv sales across the board?

      Canelo is the cash cow and he isn’t selling anywhere near Floyd. Boxing ratings have reset on regular TV as it occupies a different space in the sports atmosphere. Also far more sports on because there are any more apps and channels.

      It seems you just don’t like Tank. Which is fine.
      What is making you so mad that you label boxing fans that purchased the ppv “ d-ckriding fanboys”!

      When you buy a Canelo fight, are you also a “d-ckridin fanboy”? What about other fans?

      Dude, how about you tell us your real issue here because it isn’t rational that a boxing fan is mad when a boxer sells ppvs.

        I aint the 1. Fcuk Saul, fcuk Davis and every other boxer who aint doin whats best for the sport. Never had a problem w/makin money. At a certain point, public opinion, writers, fans, etc., are the ones who pass judgement. Rolly wasnt and hasnt been **** in the 135 division until the b!tchass wba made him and fairweather fans, some type of factor. Miss me foo. They been doin great for themselves. Good for them. If youre a fan of their way, good for you. Im a fan of the sport. I need bomb ****, not pretendo.

          Means he can get away with making a ton of money fighting Rivera and Cruz again unfortunately. Fights against Loma, Haney or Garcia would obviously do MONSTER numbers, but he doesn't NEED to take those fights if he can keep selling like this against 2nd tier opponents. PBC gonna keep him on their side of the fence with this kinda stuff sadly

            This didn’t address the question. You labeled Tank fans that went to the fight as “d-ckridin fanboys” . Is this the same for every other fan?

              I am nobody's fanboy. I am just happy for him, Tank is like a son to me and I wish him and his family nothing but the best. He has had a rough life and deserves the success he is having.

                Exactly. Why would anyone be salty that boxing is performing? As a fan of the sport you should be happy for it. The thing about ratings is that they are down everywhere, people just don't watch television as much as they do, instead they watch netflix and youtube and other forms of entertainment. There is also more competition out there than ever. I only buy the PPVs of the fighters I really want to see, such as Tank, Lomachenko, Fury, Wilder, Crawford and Joseph Parker. Nothing wrong with that, but I won't be hating on someone doing numbers in the sport even if I personally didn't buy it or dislike the fighters, one person I would never support is Adrien Broner.

                  Completely reasonable.

                  If the complaint is Tank v Rolly wasn’t “ppv worthy”, I agree.

                  Rolly sold this fight every time he did an interview and Tank has a fan base that shows up for him.

                  I can’t understand why this would anger anyone with an account on this site.

                    I label them halfafa.g ginger fans that too. As for Davis specifically,nothin but smoke n mirrors. Constantly defending a 2ndary title calling himself a 3 time champ? F.o.h....this ppv and the last were weak af. Hell, most of his fights have been too. 27 years old and aint fought the real champs at 135/140. But his defenders will claim otherwise.....and yes,those are some d!ckridin fanboys

                      I think the issue is people want to watch Tank fight but won't pay $75 for garbage PPV shows. I streamed the sh** because I like watching him fight but I will never pay for a PPV of his unless it's against one of the big names. People keep buying this garbage and they'll keep feeding it to them. Imagine Tanks numbers if he was in that fight last night on ESPN, they would have had like 2 million people watching and that's how he grows as a young star in the sport. They have their way of doing business and that's fine but it's bad for the sport and the fans. All that said, we aren't forced to buy it and I don't but I still find a way to watch him fight.
