Which was more dissapointing? Floyds 389k ppv buys or GGG's 97k buys.

    Neither belonged in PPV. One fight was overhyped, the other fight was pointless and was announced with one month to go. I'd say nothing beats 97k unless the main event fighters were Mosley vs Mayorga III, then 97k would have been pretty impressive.

        Floyd's were disappointing and probably resulted in red figures in someone's bank account. But, everyone was trash talking this fight and setting expectations low.

        GGG's probably resulted in less loss financially. But, the numbers were not as exciting as his hype/media reception would lead you to believe.
