Comments Thread For: GGG's Promoter: Anything Over 200K Buys is a Success

[KnockoutKings]

A lot of yall dudes is funny as hell with yall posts in here. I will say this business wise because of the purses 200K being a success is cool.

But all that trash yall talk about GGG being a star and his popularity is so much better than other fighters. 200K is a terrible number based off the trash his fans talk about his star power and popularity.

200k is good any way you slice it. And why are we going off figher's fan bases? Can we all agree that the majority of the fanbase for boxers, don't know ****.

ggg has a chin.....i have no doubt he can take his punches. lemieux can not take ggg's punches, anyone who follows the sport knows this. lara at least has the defensive skill and chin to withstand ggg's attack.

cmon man, did you type this with a straight face?

If the shot, plodding zombie Angulo can put Lara on the floor, what exactly do you think the technically sound GGG would do to him?

Golovkin ghouls Lara, and its not even close........

IMO the context in which I'm saying 200K isn't a good buy rate is correct. Business wise with the purse breakdowns 200K is probably a good number. But listening to people brag on GGG popularity 200K IMO is not a good number plain and simple.

Even though I believe in my comment its really just for conversing purposes anyway.

100% agree with the bold. I really don't care about the buy rate because I'm not buying the fight only because I don't feel its a ppv worthy fight. GGG vs D. Lemiuex is really an HBO championship boxing fight not a true ppv worthy fight. Just like Mayweather vs Guerrero and Berto and Manny vs Algeri and Rios. None of these fights should have been on ppv.

It's a rip off and I'm not paying for fights that should really be on HBO or Showtime anymore.

Cotto vs Canelo I don't mind paying for.

They better pray it does at least 200 I think it will do 250k

You better pray it doesn't do 100k!

Golovkin is a defensive minded fighter's worst nightmare. Lara and anyone with his style would be destroyed very easily.

Isn't this fight in Madison Square Garden? How can they be content with 200k? that's a failure

[rambov]

Here at NSB we demand at least 400k buys or the fight is a flop!

What's this guy thinking???

[Robbie Barrett]

125k......... Far from a success.
