    Marquez-Rios, Alvarado-Herrera, Gesta-Abril.....Why not just do that???

    Marquez vs. Rios
    Alvarado vs. Herrera
    Gesta vs. Abril

    Why not just make those fights for the PPV??? I'd actually probably buy that one, since April 14th is right around my payday. That would be a legit card.

    Marquez, one of the Top 10 P4P fighters and best LW in the world, fighting unbeaten Rios. That'd be big. Alvarado, an all action fighter, taking one a good JWW fighter in Herrera, a fight that could be preporationg for a title fight. And Gesta, a rising prospect, against Abril, who beat Acosta and has looked good lately.

    Why not just do that????

    JMM-Rios can be done for July

    How can you promote such a fight, have press conferences etc etc with just 4 weeks out?

          doubt it. i have my doubts as to whether marqez would want to fight rios. mebbe for the right amount of money. but i think marqez feels he has nothing left to prove legacy wise and hes after his mega payday in another pac fight. and honestly, hes very justified in feeling that way.

            no

            cmon man no way in the world that is PPV worthy

            as popular as Rios is becoming he has still not drawn a sizable enough of a fanbase to say this can be a successful PPV

            hell when was the last time JMM was the A-side to a PPV? Casamayor?

            case to run those PPV #s?

              Diaz 2. Pretty sure it turned a profit too. I think it did like 200k buys and it drew like 8,000 fans to the MGM.

              JMM/Rios can be a PPV with a decent undercard I think. Expectations just need to be managed, if you manage the budget for the event where 250,000 buys will be satisfactory then they can do it.

                between 150 and 200k

                prior to that

                JMM Casamayor- 80k

                so I don't know about this being a PPV

                  Because there is the rabid fan perspective and the actual boxer perspective.

                  If the fans chose the fights, everyone would only fight murderers row.

                  If Marquez wants to go out with his health let him.

                    you out of all people should know Marquez doesn't fight undefeated boxers, the last two he fought outclassed him then made him do the walk of shame. he isn't what you call a risk taker, hell last risk he took was Pacquiao. he took that fight a lil too carefully and blew it. you will find alot of videos of Rios saying he wants to fight Marquez. but you won't find any of Marquez saying he wants to fight Rios. FACT your idol is a pissy puss
