Comments Thread For: Golovkin Promoter: Lemieux Had To Be PPV To Happen

GGG should be taking less to get opponents in the ring with him not making the fans shell out for a BS ppv...but hbo set terrible precedent when they pay him 1.75 to fight monroe simply bc they are tying to compete with haymon purses

Well they most likely won't give us a money total... best chance of seeing that is if the NYSAC releases purses week of the fight or so.

But money has always been a big priority for them taking the fight... they always said if the money was right

I still say money or not this fight should be ppv. HBO could be sorta testing GGG's numbers...

if they come out good.... oh boy!

Supposedly HBO is expecting a 250k buy rate

GGG is in wat floyd called a "slave contract" from HBO...so all this good work ppl think tom lof is doing is a joke..he signed his fighter to the hinges...they will Doniare your ass in a heartbeat..

Ima go out on a limb and say 350-400K

GGG should have offered froch about 70/30..even 75/25...at w/e weight...this is the greediest move i've seen in a while simply bc they are tying to sell u lower class opponent just bc of power...but i thought u all said GGG had a great defense?

if they come out good our pockets are in ***ing trouble..if they can throw him in with david and do good numbers..i wouldn't be surprised to be paing for t.johnson as an opponent on ppv

they wont even bother offering quillen/jacobs winner..and no one will care

[AKAcronym]

You done talking to yourself yet?

[Cinci Champ]
