Who in their right mind is going to pay $89.99 for this fight ? I like Turk idea and make PPV $20 to curb piracy and increase PPV buys.

Eddie knows Berlanga doesn't have much of a chance of beating Canelo.

I would 100% pay 20 dollars so I don't have to move my PC setup to the living to connect to the big screen. $90 bucks? There's not a single fight I'm paying that price for. UNLESS there's actually a card with 4 main event worthy fights back to back.

Imagine a card that was:

Canelo vs Benavidez
Crawford vs Boots
Tank vs Stevenson
Ortiz vs Tszyu

(or switch up the bold and make either of those guys fight each other)

Take my money, I'll pay $100 for a stacked card.

Boxing is in such a ****** place. People don't illegally stream because they're broke. People illegally stream because they're not gonna pay a ridiculous amount to see a ****** card with one DECENT main event. This Canelo-Berlanga card isn't even good, and the main event makes Mayweather exhibitions more desirable.

*side note... this forum is becoming so pathetic. the word above that is blocked out is 'STVPID' - obviously replace the V with a U......

Eddie says, "Edgar will have to rematch Canelo when he beats Canelo on Sept. 14, and we will go from there"
Such a comedian.

You underestimate the lack of dignity canelo fans have. They’d gladly pay for this trash fight. Problem is, there isn’t enough of them to really make this ppv successful. That’s why canelo hasn’t hit really big ppv numbers in 6 yrs. This card is worth $20 tops so yes, Turks idea makes sense.

A whole lot of nothing was said in this article. Hearn worships the ground Canelo walks on and Turki wants to match Canelo with a fighter two weight classes down and who moved up from lightweight. We already knew all this…
