UFC needs to stop interfering with traditional Boxing PPV weekends.

This has nothing to do with UFC


If 750.000 boxing fans are going to buy a mismatch then boxing fans are doing this to themselves.

Juneteenth, Cinco de Mayo, and Mex independence weekend have ALWAYS been reserved for BOXING fans. Take this weekend for instance, Canelo and Berlenga pulled 750k buys, It would have easily been 1 Million Plus if Dana White didn't put his greasy little hands in the pot.

Are you sure about that PPV number??? That seems rather high, I didn't think the fight would do more than 500,000 buys...

Its a totally different game. I got no problems with it. I can see a casual being upset by it.
98% of boxing fans could never understand the intricacies of MMA. They just think they rolling around.
Personally i thought the UFC card was HORRIBLE but you wouldn't know that.
Not even a competition with Canelo.
I love boxing and enjoy seeing a great boxer like Canelo fight but I DIDNT BY THAT FIGHT. I want to see him fight Benividas. I wont buy nothing else from him.

Did you watch the actual full card or just the main event? I thought the UFC card was way better tbh, the main and co-main werent great but the rest of the card had solid action. Ortega/Lopes and Zellhuber/Ribovics were better than any of fights on the Canelo card, plus it had the Sphere setting and a much stronger atmosphere. The main event was never gonna be a recipe for fireworks but it was a much more intriguing and hard to call match up than Canelo/Berlanga going in, and the result is much more consequential to the grand scheme of things too. It wasnt a GREAT card but it was a 7/10 UFC card, and a 7/10 UFC card > pretty much all boxing cards.

Earth to Paulf...College Football isn't on PPV

College football doesn't care if boxing is on PPV or not.

Neither does UFC.

Yea decent for people no one really knows. Their was no big names other than the main even. It should of been a Jon Jones and Machachev fighting on the SAME night. Now thats a card worth of Cinco De Mayo!

This weekend's card ****** anyway for boxing. With the exception of Plant-McComby, and if you're not a Canelo diehard, the event was quite lackluster. Garcia-Lara almost put me to sleep and was without a doubt the most disappointing part of the event. I was looking forward to see Garcia come back and he was already a shell of himself. Crazy that the 41yr old did it... yet again.

I’ll be shocked if this card did 400,000 buys. 750k? That’s extremely hard to believe. **** matchups at $90 dollars.

- Stop it please.

- DID NOT DO 750,000 pay per view buys.

- Takes over a week for the REAL numbers to come in.

- PBC are desperate

- Canelo is desperate.

- Joshua vs Dubois sold 95,000 tickets (Wembley Stadium) this weekend. Isn't the PPV ONLY $20 in America?????? Liam Gallagher from Oasis will be singing.

- Here we go, 5,4,3,2,1 enter the haters lol.

You sound insecure and threatened. I thought MMA was completely inferior and posed no threat to boxing?
