Whether they're making money or not in the long term, who knows, but I'll take what I can get while the getting is good. I'm not promised tomorrow and neither is anyone else.

He's spending millions of $$$ on promotions alone. You could tell just by seeing so many moving parts in his press cons. Reality is only a few souls are spending money on their PPVs. It stands to reason people watch everything for free including those in the US. No difference. If they can pirate that, they can pirate this.
Point of this thread is if Fat Dan can still come up with numbers when it comes to PPVs on PBC fights, where are Alalshikh's numbers? They're massive compared to the US's.
The answer is they're all fake numbers which are severely exaggerated. Everything in this sport is exaggerated when it comes to numbers. Everyone is making up numbers pulled out of their asses. Why do you think HBO, NBC, CBS, Fox, Showtime left boxing? Exactly. They don't make any profit. So when you see fake reports saying fighter A, B, C made $25 mil, $30 mil, etc., don't believe it.Last edited by brettWall; 12-20-2024, 12:49 PM.

Simply put, it doesn't matter if they are profitable in terms of sales (I highly doubt they are). It's not what it's about.MulaKO likes this.

They're obviously losing **** tons of money on every single one of these fights. Theres no way they can come close to generating the necessary PPV revenue and gates to cover it.
Its not about that to them though, they foolishly think they're somehow gonna change peoples perceptions of their backwater by throwing away money. As long as we benefit by getting big fights and cards regularly, let em.

How many of you never pay a dime in watching these fights and just pirating them?
