    Is he just missing a geographic area? That would be the simplest explanation.
    His numbers for the Floyd, Golovkin, and Canelo/Cotto fights are consistently around 70% of what's widely reported. Maybe he's spot on, or maybe he's trying to get attention. He's Don King's match-maker.

    Personally I come from a profession where you work with ranges and not single numbers. Glazer's numbers provide a potential lower end of the range and the other number is the higher end.

      650,000 to 900,000 is a pretty damn wide "range" lol

Who is feeding the writer tainted info, but lots of great food!!!"


        cant wait for the hate squad to show up and discredit these numbers.


        but but but but 97k doe


        (FYI, I still believe the 900k+ number, but this still is going to be alot of fun)
        Glazer as always must be taken with a grain of salt. But it should be noted those involved with the PPV did drop the expected number according to Dan the Wednesdfay before the fight.

        Glazer's numbers have Canelo outselling GGG by over 500k, about 7x as much as GGG.

        I don't see how GGG is in a position to reject 155 and expect to get a big PPV fight.

          650,000 would be great, great numbers. 900,000 would be outstanding.

          Either way it was a highly successful event.

            rick glazer, unlike the 97K guy, doesn't live with his mother.


            glazer breaks big time NFL stories all the time. not sure why, but he's connected. i think he's with FOX.

            anyway, glazer's #'s legitimacy > 97K's numbers all damn day.


            650K isn't a bad figure for a fight not involving floyd mayweather.

                650,000 (if that is indeed the real number) is still higher than what Mayweather's "retirement" bout against Berto did...

                  Yeah wider than I like, but that's the range we're given. The problem is there's no accountability to the accuracy of all these reports, at the same time there's incentive to lie/embellish from both sources.

                    canelo cotto was a good fight actually, but all the other were not worth to pay $$

                      he replied to me earlier that he was referring to other ppvs like Floyd-Berto, Floyd-Pac, etc, and not the Cotto-Canelo undercard......
