    This is more of one of those $40 ppv specials where the real money comes from the european networks buying live telecast rights.

      Protecting their investment. A mora fight isn't TV friendly, may have hurt GGG's image, so they didn't approve it. IF this happened with other fighters we'd call it the same thing.

      Lampley already annointed him better than Sergio. Sergio isn't looking to fight GGG. So go fight someone else.

        Wrong crowd to ask.

        Take a random sampling of people at Wal-Mart, at your barbershop and at the sports bar on a busy NFL Sunday. And then survey several club/bar owners and ask them if they would show the PPV.

          I see it now. Ward his gonna move up to 175 and ask GGG to balloon up.

          Dude taking a page out of all these people's book. Drain them and balloon them up.

            GGG/Ward shouldn't be that much. This fight should be no more than $45 (us).

            Obviously money is always a motivating factor-but if you keep this price low I can see you getting 500k if you market it properly.

                You do know Mora has called out everyone, including Martinez. Lucky SM that he received protection from HBO, just like Showtime is also aggressively protecting Floyd and Canelo from this monster.

                  Ward-GGG just seems halfassed right now, Ward is right with this
                  not even thinking of the luster, just the merit
                  GGG has good opponents to face at MW still
                  surprised if Ward stays at 168 at this point, guess he wants to though
                  even if Ward was willing to do it right now, GGG is dumb to rush it
                  wanna see GGG take on some greater threats at MW first
                  That or beat someone relevant at 168. Until then, no point talking about this.

                    I see, much like Showtime is protecting Floyd and Canelo from this guy, and much like Sergio got protection from HBO

                    What's your opinion, in addition to Mora, why is Floyd being protected from Alexander and Randall Bailey?

                      Not enough money in this fight and a lot of risk for both at the moment. Ward is right essentially
