Fight no.1 will bring the highest PPVs in 2015. Gennady has much shorter arms than Floyd, and their size difference will be rather modest at 154lbs, which Gennady is willing to go down to. The size difference between Floyd and Juan Manuel Marques was much bigger with almost 20lbs difference in the ring, plus the enormous reach advantage for Floyd.

The weight difference in the ring between Floyd and Gennady, will probably be less than it was between Floyd and Canelo, and Floyd will have the reach advantage. If Floyd thinks he is an ATG he should definitely fight Gennady Golovkin, who is skilled but maybe not as skilled as Floyd.

Any fan of Floyd who thinks he has a better skill-set than Gennady should demand this fight immediately, so the world can admire Floyd's skills. However, when it comes to real fights many realize that Floyd's resume is rather thin and that maybe he isn't as skilled as they initially thought, therefore arguing for Floyd to avoid fights with boxers who has great skill-set.


Fight no.2 will still bring high PPVs because these two fighters have been media's main focus point during the last 7 years. One of them claiming he has unique skills, but rather fights less dangerous opponents. The other being a knockout artist without knockouts in the last few years. However, Floyd seems more willing now than ever to take risks if he can make a lot of money, and the reason Manny has no knockouts in the last few years is that he eases up on his opponents nowadays when he knows he's won the fights.


Fight no.3 is very attractive because Canelo is a young strong fighter with good chin who has great power in both hands. Gennady has much better footwork, but will probably be forced to be more careful not exchanging shots too wildly with Canelo. However, a multifold of very hard punches will fly in this fight and the fans will definitely be willing to pay their PPV to watch it.


Fight no.4 has good potential to be made in the end of 2015 because accountant Juan Manuel's favorite hobby is to count his doughs, so he will soon be salivating a fifth encounter.


Fight no.5 initially looks like a terrible mismatch, but Floyd's legs are not as fast as Algieri's so Ruslan might be able to cut off the ring as he occasionally did against Timothy. Ruslan is always dangerous when he is able to get close to his opponents. Since Ruslan has the capacity to knockout his opponents with one punch, the audience will be on the edge of their seat. Few boxing fans can resist watching this PPV.



*This fight has very evenly matched boxers where Erislandy, having the hardest punch, should be the favorite. Hence the fight having the potential to attract many more casual boxing fans and more PPVs.







P.S. This thread asks Khan's fans to focus on Khan in other threads, because this thread is not discussing British boxing but American PPVs.

Mayweather vs Pacquiao would sell better than GGG based on their names alone, Mayweather vs Pacquiao is still the biggest PPV fight out there. Many casual fans don't have a clue who GGG is.

Mayweather vs Golovkin would not surpass 2m buys IMO. In fact I think it would take A LOT of promoting for it to sell more than 1.5m.

Pacquiao is of course more known than GGG, but the main reason Pacquiao became popular was his ferociousness in the ring knocking his opponents out. Nowadays GGG is that ferocious fighter and it would be very easy to sell Mayweather vs Golovkin with suitable promotion. GGG is already well known among most sports-interested people because of him having the world's highest knockout record.

Pacquiao vs Mayweather is an easy sell, but Mayweather vs Golovkin will be an even easier sell because of GGG's current form.

Nobody would want to miss when Floyd takes on an in form knockouts-artist because of the uncertainty of the situation...

...What will happen? Will Floyd's skills be enough? Will Floyd be able to counterpunch himself out of GGG's pressure? Will Floyd be knocked down? etc. etc...there will be so many questions that everyone would like to see the answers to. Hence it being a more attractive match today than Pacquiao vs Mayweather, where there will be fewer questions.

Go walk down your street and ask the first 50 people you see who Gennady Golovkin is and 95% of them will have a vacant stare on their faces.

Boxing isn't a mainstream sport any more. No one cares who has the world's highest knockout record and doesn't Wilder hold that distinction anyway?

Several people have agreed with me and laughed at your ridiculous idea that a PPV could sell 4million. Show me one person who has agreed with you.

And what was that? Do you really think casual fans will spend $70 to see if Mayweather can counter-punch Golovkin's pressure? Most of them don't even know what the *** that even means....lol people will pay for Mayweather-Pacquiao because of who they are and their name value. Do you think casuals pay for Mayweather fights because of his style of boxing? Lol..
