Comments Thread For: De La Hoya Backs Tank-Garcia To Generate Close To 2.5 Million Buys

Sad Oscar is doing lines again. This is a trash fight between two fighters reluctant to fight the best at their weight. It won't do 500k PPVs, let alone 2 million. You can always tell when Oscar is bag on the pipe.

Boxing has really lost it's attractiveness. Die hard boxing fans always tune in regardless, but those on the outside looking in haven't had a reason to want to watch boxing in a long time. None of today's boxers are really household names. And the last boxing kingpin, Mayweather, wasn't known for having memorable fights.

2.5 million is out of the question. However if this matchup turns out to be a classic, perhaps the world of boxing might begin to start tuning in going forward.

Even die hard fans are only tuning in half the time. Boxing is in big big trouble.

Oscar is dreaming here imo ... He's the expert so maybe I don't know what I'm talking about but only wicked special fights can eclipse that fabled 2M mark. I would say about half his prediction is more reasonable and that itself is not a bad number really.

The only fight that could potentially reach 1 mil is Fury vs Usyk and that's only because it's a historic boxing event and heavyweights. We will never see 2 mil within this decade.

Not a snowball's chance in hell.

Oscar’s on the pure sh** tonight.

If it broke a 1m I’d be amazed. Around 500k I reckon. If it even happens.

I thought PPV was dead?

Only if they charge $5 for the Ppv.

Snort it up you absolute moron. Porky can't even crack 300k on his own. Garcia has never headlined a PPV. This fight is nowhere near as big as these fools imagine. It's 2 contenders fighting for a fake belt. I'm not paying for this, and the people they are relying on are tech savy and will find a free way to watch this.
