Comments Thread For: Arum: Pacquiao vs. Algieri in Serious Talks For 11/22

[-PBP-]

IIRC the Rios PPV was $5 in China right? Were any numbers ever released in regards to Chinese PPV buys, or how much $ it amounted to?

I'm just wondering where the profit comes from. Unless it's just something Top Rank is doing in order to get the Chinese public accustomed to boxing.

I never read about how successful that was. The profit comes from the site fee, the gate, advertising, PPV revenue and cheap purses for the opponent and the undercard.

none of the fights are good so doesn't really matter.....

No they are both equally crap.

But if Salko wins then he will be ranked and have belts. Isnt that how Algeri got his ranking and shot

Yes if he wins he will rightfully be the best at 140 and deserving of a big payday fight. But he's not beating Danny. Be serious with yourself and find Jesus. I pray you will.

Algieri went through fire to beat Provo and he represents America proudly and is an honorable man. He deserves a shot the big times.

What a joke lol

Who would seriously spend money to see this fight?

Algieri, even before knocking off Ruslan, was top 20 in his class. Salka ain't even top 50. Hell he ain't even top 60....or top 70!!!! lmfao

There really isn't anyone else for Pac to fight at this point honestly. If Floyd won't fight him in May, he might as well retire.

I thought his first chinese ppv bombed so hard that he had to retract all of his whining about the mgm and have a fight again in America

Nah. Timothy Bradley wasn't going to Asia and his purse would probably be too expensive to test the market.

I remember when many were saying that about Algeri. That was when they had no idea who he was. Right before Provo

Stop comparing this fight to Garcia/Salka, that actually makes this fight look good. Pac is fighting a junior welter who never fought at 147 and arguably lost his last fight. But no pacquiao and roach don't cherry pick
