Rick Glaser: "Stephen Espinoza is a liar"

It just shows how Mayweather needs a solid opponent and a solid card to get them numbers!

even if 700k is a legit number is is by far the ppv king...no 1 else is even coming close

What are you talking about? Pacquiao's last fight did the same amount of buys as Glaser claims Mayweather's last fight did.

And I wonder who Rick's source at GBP is. Must be someone high up because he's been getting details that only the main executives would be privy to (the Schaefer saga, Canelo's move to HBO, PPV figures). Could it be the Golden Boy himself? That would be a hell of a twist

[Hougigo]

again....numbers out this fast? Doubt it

[SUBZER0ED]

The only purpose that posting the PPV numbers serves, is to show how many of us got taken by that lackluster, BS card.

A thread we have seen like 5 times already with news that is 2 or 3 days old.

Are you the forum police or something?

Like I said, you don't even need Glaser, Iole, Fat Dan, and others to know the truth, or something close to the truth.

For example, Schaefer and Espinoza never released an official number in the Guerrero fight, likewise, in the Maidana 1 fight. Months later Espinoza came out announcing they're no longer releasing PPV results unless it breaks 2M.

Common sense tells you that they did significantly less. It makes you wonder what's so wrong with reporting 600K to 900K? So they must be so embarrassingly low.

I had my own doubts with these fraudulent numbers for years. It started with the Ortiz/Mayweather fight. A week prior to the fight there was a report saying they were struggling to sell tickets. But lo and behold, weeks after the fight, Schaefer reports that they did more than 1 million.

My point is...who is Glaser? what is his background?? and why should people believe him?

[boxinggod101]

If its 700k buys its still pretty good when u looked at the undercard plus it was a fight that shouldnt have happened. Still good numbers.

Espinoza is a villainous liar. Glaser has never been more right with that statement. It's unfortunate how Showtime has sunk so low, but eventually more things are going to change as they've created an unsustainable environment.
