Comments Thread For: Canelo Alvarez is Confident About Angulo PPV Sales

[HeroBando]

I feel Canelo is doing his fans a disservice with this match as a PPV....IMO of course.

Money has a lot of voices

His purse demands are too high for regular Showtime

Do you think it's smart?

for canelo it is, but this has been goin on for a while now. how many ppvs have been worthy of the 60-70 dollars the casual fans fork out? Most of the ppv fights this year are crap yet people will still buy them.

[Cinci Champ]

its a good card it just depends on what they try to charge if its on the low end of ppv i might buy it like 35 or so but if its anything close to 50 or more not a chance id rather stream it and i buy pretty much every ppv i do think canelos will sell more ppv buys then people think his fans didnt go any where. its like people have counted him out because floyd schooled him. He did some things in that fight that no one else was able to do on mayweather i give the kid credit and hes only 23 hes going to get so much better. No doubt in my mind hes a ppv star win lose or draw thats one thing thats for certain

I think this fight is a great sell @ $29.95. Anything more & it's replay material. Plus it gives Canelo a chance to get his fan base back since he let'm down for $75...,# it's OK to laugh

Great fight and will sell. Plus Alvarez gets the win.he can fight either cotto,Martinez and Lara down the line. This fight right here will define Alvarez on his chances with those three fighters I mentioned.

Ppv, seriously. Showtime yes but ppv. I dont think it hits 250k buys. Im not going to fork up the $$$. Good matchup, should be exciting but not ppv worthy, and i am a canelo fan but no cheerleader.

I agree this should be on regular showtime I can't see myself coughing up PPV money for it I think its a decent matchup and a 50/50 fight though

[Drunk Punch]

The cost of PPV in America is ridiculous. You buy a ticket to the actual event for less than the $75 they charge for an HD feed. Why don't they make it $20 and attract a much larger audience.

Who can afford $75 to watch a tv program?

This is a good fight but it shouldn't be on PPV.

[Wyvceo]

Simple economics,Marquez versus Bradley did in excess of 350,000 ppv buys and Canelo is a bigger name than both of them combined. GBP would be ****** not to have this on pay per view.

Your smoking this fights does 250-300000 and that's after they exaggerate numbers ...if he was fighting Lara who I think beats him easy ill oay 39.99 for that

He hasn't beat anyone fan these fighters fight the Goat then price theirselves out the game like dumb ass Guerrero
