      Some cheap skates. Your telling me if the arena was near by you wouldnt pay 50$ for front row seats and roy jones jr's voice?

      This is a great fight and I think It surprises people and does 175k

      Get used to it.

      Canelo ,TC are gonna be ppv guys now.


      If I was bob id put lomachenko on the card
      He's not even well known... boxing ppvs back in the days were $29.99- $34.99 for fighters just starting off on PPV... Man **** has changed dramatically over the last 7 or so years.

        Of course it won't do big numbers, Boxing have probably the worse fans of all sports especially here in the US so you can't really depend on that to buy PPV's regardless of how much they claim they "LOVE THE SPORT OF BOXING". Keep the budget down and find creative ways to promote it without spending too much money. Some fights have to be PPV because of HBO budget unfortunately, I would rather the fight be PPV than the fight not happening at all

            Based on the rumored undercard I might be skipping this one. I like Postol vs Crawford but I'm not paying $50 to watch Valdez and Ramirez fight tuneups.

            Give me something like the PAC vs Bradley undercard and I'll gladly hand out me money.

            Edit: actually the Valdez fight looks solid. One more solid fight and I'm in.

              People in the Omaha area will load up on this fight. Arum knows this. I'd be shocked if total viewership is less than 100k

                This PPV will probably do about 1300-1500 sales.

                  50k would be shocking. Nobody knows either of them outside of real hardcore boxing fans

                    If GGG and Canelo were scheduled to go, you could make the case that supporting this could lead to bigger fights occurring sooner. How long will Crawford marinate and and who would he cook with worthy of an 80 buck meal? Senator Pacquiao???

                      Shoot I highly doubt it can reach the 100k mark. A realistic mark I'd honestly say is 30-60k max.

                      And that is by no means a disrespect to either fighter who I both think are very good. It's just nobody and I mean nobody knows them outside hardcore fans. And those same hardcore fans are not going to buy PPV for this fight.
