        Terrible analogy.

        Those fights were in China - they got most of their revenue from the ginormous amount the casinos paid to host the fights there.

        It was an experiment, and no money was invested in the buildup in USA.

          This will be considered by some a success, after all will Golovkin Lemieux sell this many? And it will be considered by others a failure because Showtime will ultimately lose money which any of us could have predicted. It doesn't matter to them apparently because they made so much money in May then what was the point of this event again?

            they put GGG lemieux as ppv?

            i would have waited until GGG got a named opponent.

            this could work because of his offensive ko style unlike ward's head butting and ****sexual boundary crossing excessive man hugging which has gotten better over the years i must admit he doesnt do it as much as he used to although that could change to bruce jenner level if he finds the balls to fight kovalev.

                What do PPV buys have to do with the gate?
                The event was far from a sell out, not to mention many of the tickets were given away for free.

                  Fat Dan, everyone knows you have no sources.
                  Easily one of the most reliable guys out there.
