      PPV is non-existent or for the Uber rich and 90% of them do not care for boxing.
      This is one of the dumbest thing’s I’ve heard lol. AFCON soccer cup in Africa got sponsored with a deal worth more than $1 Billion. Seems like you & other ignoramuses watch too much CNN…

      there are about 165,000 very wealthy individuals in Africa with a combined net wealth holdings of more than $660 billion. This equates to roughly 28% of total individual wealth held on the continent. From 2000 to 2013, Africa’s very wealthy individuals increased by more than 150% compared to the worldwide growth rate of 73%. In 2013, South Africa topped the list with 48,800 dollar millionaires, followed by Egypt with 23,000, Nigeria with 15,900 and Kenya with 9,000.

          Explaining this to ignorant individuals that know nothing outside of the U.S is a challenge.

            Nigeria is in the top 5 most corrupt and mismanaged country on earth.
            Two, why would a Saudi promoter back an event that’s not in the kingdom?
            If you had mentioned South Africa, maybe that’s a possibility after all Lewis-Rahman II happened there.
            What does that Nigeria being mismanaged have to do with anything he just said?

                    Now it looks like wilder is also starting to throw in extra roadblocks to this fight.....bottom line is fight in Saudi and if it’s a classic then both of you sign for the rematch otherwise just get the 1 fight deal over the line......stop talking gumbo wilder
