    Crawford ppv buys this weekend?

    Hearn says it will do 10k. I think it could do as much as 50k if marketed properly on a major platform but I haven't seen a single ad for this fight and it's days away. It's also not on a major platform so I'm guessing 30 - 35 k. It will be a MAJOR financial disaster based on the purse for Crawford.

        It's a wonder that I had forgotten the fight is the weekend. Oh wait, it's not a wonder, it's been marketed worse than blue suede hush puppies.

            He has a strong incentive to lie about all of this so should be taken with a pinch of salt.

                0 promotion, 0 PPV level draws and the fight is in Nebraska in December.
                Based on Crawford’s purse it would have to do 250k buys just to hit that number. Not including expenses and paying other fighters on the card.

                After losing millions for Bob Arum and Top Rank Crawford is about to light $10 million of BLK Primes, whoever that is, money on fire.

                Has any fighter lost more of promoters money in their career? Bud has to be #1 right?
