Would Ward vs GGG have sold more ppv's than GGG vs Lemeiux?

      Good observation. What does that say about the quality of a fight when everyone is talking about the guy he passed on?

          Definitely. Although with the updated GGG PPV numbers thats not saying a whole lot.

            Little G-Ward does 300k+. The hardcore fans opinion goes a long way with casuals, when the casuals ask if this fight is a good fight the answer will be yes.

              Wuhout a doubt. Lemeuiex is a nobody. Everyone knew he would lose. Ward is one if the best boxers of the past 20 years. For those reasons alone if nothing else.

                  Yes. Probably would have done anywhere from 275-325k


                  Hell.


                  Tim Bradley vs Jessie Vargas could have pulled off 125-150k

                    I'll be in the minority and say no, or about the same. I don't see the Ward-GGG storyline being much more thrilling than a unification fight. Noone remembers Ward, or knows why he would fight GGG.

                      2 all time Olympian and amateur boxers.

                      the king of 160 vs the king of 168

                      both undefeated

                      boxer vs puncher

                      what more of a storyline do you need?

                      300k easy, its the fight that everybody in boxing was talking about this summer.
                      and when I say everybody in boxing, I don't mean us the fans, I mean fighters
                      (current and retired),commentators, and promoters.
