    It is over. The last castle is delusional UK fans. PPV is dead without Europe.

      DAZN was supposed to get rid of PPV. Now they have PPV. I can't stand hypocrites like that. Plus they upped their subscription fee while making bigger fights PPV. They deserve to fail.

        Based on the Caleb Plant fight doing 800k. Based on a Bivol fight who nobody knew doing 500k. A Mexican-American fighter like Benavidez vs Mexican Canelo is an easy fight to market and sell. Charlo is more of un an unknown but is an American undefeated fighter with KO power. Easier to market than Bivol or Beterbiev as opponents.

          Poor number for what's supposed to be a big fight.

          I didn't expect big numbers, ship sailed on this years ago.

                Wow you're a Floyd superfan. Who knew. That was impossible to predict from all your posts/sarcasm

                If you were any more transparent you'd be clear lol

                  DAZN just isn't able to get traction. Canelo is keeping them afloat.

                  Not everyone can just wake up and be the big leagues.

                    It did about what I thought it would tbh. 3rd fight, 4 years after the last, one guy 40 years old + its being hosted on lets face kind of an obscure streaming service. If it had been on traditional PPV i'd have expected 700-800k so better than this but still a drop off from the second fight.

                      Need better undercards. The match making on this one was so boring that the people I was watching with where getting antsy and/or yawning
