    HBO is just gravy. HBO wouldn't pay for Chavez either, that's a ppv. As is Froch vs GGG in the UK, cheaper but many more buys. Gate probably is better in the UK. Most importantly Froch takes a smaller cut vs Chavez, much bigger vs GGG.

      Froch-Chavez is a duel PPV. The gate clearly generates more in Vegas. These are facts which have literally been worked out by people involved in putting the fights together.

      Not guess work, half truths and "probablys" like you present.

        Chavez would be at like 5am in the UK, which severely impacts the buy rate. Hard to tell on the gate, Chavez last fight well underwhelmed and Froch doesn't bring much beyond rep here. Same as GGG in the UK, just to a smaller extent, partly due to the big pond factor

          It would affect the UK buyrate but that would be made up by the fact it would be on at prime time in America where the PPV price is much more expensive anyway. Froch-Golovkin wouldn't even draw as much as the first Groves fight on Sky PPV in the UK, let alone Kessler or Groves II.

          It's not hard to tell on the gate at all. A Vegas casino would generate more than 30k tickets at a football stadium in Nottingham. Golovkin isn't going to Wembley.

          Again -these are facts which have been worked out now your skewed fanboy guesswork.

            There's no way to tell who's right here. Hard to tell whether the Us ppv would offset the lost UK sales, given that ppv numbers have been dropping here, and most importantly, the far lower percentage Froch would be taking in the Us.

              Well no because the people who are actually behind making these fights are aware of this.

              You, a rabid and desperate Golovkin fantard is not and refuses to accept reality.

              Neither Chavez or Golovkin are big names in the UK so the "lost UK sales" isn't as large as you're desperately trying to make out and it becomes even more negligible given the fact that the price of Sky PPV is far less.

              Just for the kicker, if what you're saying is true, wouldn't that make Froch-Golovkin a bigger money fight in the UK than in the US? So are you saying that Hearn/Froch want to take less money to fight Golovkin since their demand is for a duel PPV Vegas fight?

              "Lost UK sales doe"

              What a ***ing idiot.

                Notice how they avoid mentioning the man they robbed, how they stole his 0 away to not reward him, the deserved wbc super middleweight belt.

                Froch has always been scared to say Andre Dirrell's name.

                  No **** Sherlock, of course Froch GGG is a bigger fight in the UK than here. And it would do far better on Uk ppv than Chavez vs B side Froch at 5am. Hence lost UK sales, slow fcuk

                    So why do Froch and Hearn demand that the Golovkin fight be a duel PPV?

                    You're literally saying that Froch and Hearn want to take less money to fight Golovkin. Absolutely owning and making a right tit out of yourself again. Dear oh dear.

                      They demand it cause its an out. Listen Im not saying GGG is the biggest money out there for Froch. Its up there, and IMO it does make him more than the much less risky Chavez. But no doubt GGG carries a ton of momentum and p4p points way beyond Chavez. Unlike Jr, smaller guy coming up in weight, gives up homecourt advantage. What's not to like, other than your chances?
