ward - golovkin is a ppv fight. it's either ppv, or it doesn't happen at all.
HBO cannot pay both guys several million for a world championship boxing broadcast.
for these guys to get an amount of money that will make them take the fight, it will take PPV revenue.

It does have to be a PPV fight, that's why they aren't making it yet.

If Ward wants the fight so bad then they should meet at 164, and fight in a neutral venue like Vegas. Ward needs to take a chance if he wants the reward.

Originally posted by Pigeons View PostThe insinuation that GGG wouldn't make more than E-Rod did vs. Ward is hard to stomach. I ask again, how much is GGG making vs. Geale?
Also if golovkin makes more and this was the same situation as e-rod on HBO, it cuts into wards money

if ward's promotor's idea of selling a fight wasn't to put a bumper sticker on his car, this fight could be built into a ppv.
goossen doesn't ahve that kind of muscle. he's done well in getting ward contracts with TV networks, but that's all he's really done.
as for golovkin's promotional team, they're doing well in turning golovkin into a star, and i don't think it's unreasonable to assume that he will one day be on PPV with the proper opponent.
american fans who arne't willing to pay $60-$70 for this fight are in no position to complain when it doesn't happen, and that's what's important for our discussion.
