    A no name? Weren't you Little G fans hyping him up as a big draw before the fight? Making bold predictions 400k PPV buys etc?

      He's a solid draw in Montreal, not so much in the States. So whos bringing in 2m in gate in the US vs a Lemieux type?

        Who cares? PPV is where the real money is and Little G is a failure, kicked back to regular HBO begging Canelo for another PPV outing.

          OK, so how many active fighters can sell 150k on HBO ppv vs a Lemieux type? My guess is 3, with 2 of them close to retirement.

            97k? Lots of fighters could sell 97k but it's not worth it for HBO to put fights like that on, which is why Little G is back on regular HBO.

            Shot to **** Mosley v Mayorga did more than that didn't it?

              Glaser says Mosley Mayorga did 3300. Try again?

                  I don't know if this is the answer. Still not in favor of day before weigh-ins. Sounds great and safe, but I'm more in favor of having weigh-ins be day of. Discipline, self control and responsibility. If the fighter doesn't have the maturity or intelligence to be able to do that then that's his and his team's fault.

                      bu bu but they ducking doe....GGG is a very good fighter and there comes a point where he is going to have to take charge in his career.



                      Fighting the wades and Monroes of the world on the regular and a lemmy and murray type every now and then wont cut it if he wants to be considered a great fighter or become a star
