Terence Crawford signed a contract to face Viktor Postol

Why does every half decent fight have to be PPV? Damn.

Thurman vs Porter is free thanks to Al Haymon.

Postol should get himself sponsored by the owner of that body shop.

But this lines up with the rumors of Bradley having a PPV in July as well. Bob is probably going to stack this card with names.

Yea I feel like thats the plan or it should be. They can throw Tim on as the headliner vs Cotto or Brook or throw him on as the co-feature vs Jessie Vargas or some other lesser name & it'll only help this card sell. When you don't gotta pay Manny $20M there is a much lower threshold for breaking even & therefore profit.

Rooting on that being the plan anyway. I think it'd be a better way to build up a guy like Crawford as a PPV guy then to just throw GGG vs Lemieux out there in the deep water like K2 did.

Nice, the two top of the division will be squaring off. This fight needed to be made. Sucks is on PPV, but I am still glad they're fighting.

Lol at this being PPV....it won't even make 25K buys

I don't know when this mind set changed for some boxing fans?

Who gives peeeeep about the buys??? We are here for boxing I think buys are the last thing a real boxing fan should worry about. By the way, this is a great fight for true boxing fans.

I think it makes more than Bradley vs PAC 3. Crawford is becoming a star, I don't think they over price this PPV. Comes in the range of 40/50 If they add Bradley with another star it will be pretty big. The point is they are giving him his first headline on a PPV, so they have to promote the crap out of him for this fight. Neither fighter will make 23 million dollars so Top Rank will defiantly not lose money on this fight.

gtfoh!!! crawford is becoming a star? to who? the black community and the few people in omaha! show a little more respect for a legend like manny.

These guys aren't really at that level to be on PPV, but depending on the undercard, it could be worth it.

[Eff Pandas]

Why is this PPV Bob you moron

Don't blame Arum for this, blame HBO. HBO is on a lower n lower budget all the time. Supposedly $30M or less this year.

I think nearly any fight thats legit interesting &/or competitive with 2 notable guys will be a HBO PPV at this point. When your monthly budget is $2.5M or less thats just how things are gonna be.

I don't wanna see names against mediocre opponents. If Bradley is on the card I want to see him fighting the likes of Brook or Garcia. I don't wanna are Bradley vs Vargas II. I want to see Lomachenko-Walters. I'll probably buy the fight because I'm ****** and buy every PPV. But I want to see a stacked undercard with good names against good opponents.

Crawford vs Postal
Bradley vs Brooks
Lomahenko vs Walters

Now thats a PPV worth 50 bones

Because he does't have all the antics BRONER has, you don't consider him a star?

Crawford-Lundy averages 982K
Crawford-Gamboa 1.2M

Crawford is in my top p4p guys and his skills are up there. He is becoming a star and the way you market a star is by promoting the heck out of them. PPVs promote the hello out of fights this will be no different.
