Wilder - Helinius PPV numbers.......

[TMLT87]

Boxing and PPV just dont mix unless its a legit big fight or the rare instance of a Canelo type who can draw against pretty much anybody. Both those fights would have been much better off on network tv.

Hahhahhahahahahhaahhahahahhahahahahaah

Again only real ppv star today is canelo even his low numbers do 5x better than everyone else. Lol

PPV is pretty much dead for boxing. UFC is the only sport that really does well on PPV because they are similar to WWE people pay for the Company and Brand of UFC and push the fighters well in social media and youtube so fans develop a bond and pick which personality they like.

Plus they stack their cards and the biggest available fights get made relatively consistently. A lot of these recent boxing PPVs are so complacent its ****ing insane. Main events that arent really PPV worthy and then weak undercards as well, I dont know what kind of numbers the promoters are expecting.

This fight should never have been a ppv…

[Silence]

PPV era is over. I said that 438382 times. Only delusional UK fans keep PPV a bit alive lately.

PPV era is over.

It probably wouldnt be if those PPVs were actual big fights with strong undercards rather than Wilder/Helenius and Tank vs Who.

[elfag]

they charge too much and a lot of these would have been on regular HBO 20 years ago. A losing fighters tuneup should not be a ***ing PPV.

[ShoulderRoll]

Even Dud Crawford does better numbers than that.

[QueensburyRules]

Rafael is reporting the fight did between 65,000 and 75,000 buys.


Take that for what you will........

To be honest its not really stacked cards, its promotion, in order for casuals or views to want to watch a card they have to know the fighters first, and UFC promotes thier fighters to the masses well. Boxing can stack the cards but who is going to watch but hardcores? they could stack a boxing card but if its not promoted or the public have no clue who those fighters are it wont sell.


I love watching UFC fights, they know how to market and promote thier fighters, so fans develop a fanatic view of the fighter and get to know them, this is what boxing fails to do in this era you need to go hard on youtube and twitter, tiktok, and interviews.

Watch thos countdown shows for UFC, they did an amazing show that helps promote the fights, it shows during the week of the fight called Embedded on youtube they show like 5 parts its awesome short and sweet like 10 to 15 minutes long only but it follows the fighters on the card in little glimpses.

Boxing needs to promote better. This why Jake Paul is the big draw in boxing, he is part of that media era that UFC markets too the new wave. Jake Paul promotes himself on social big time thats how he got famous, boxing needs to follow that
