question: why do ward fans make fun of 97k when he's never headlined a ppv himself?

[Motorcity Cobra]

that's not the case. only ward fans make fun of 97k. everyone else says it was rather expected.

I'm telling you that's the case with me. As a Ward, Pacquiao, Cotto, Caneo, and Mayweather fan I make fun of 97k

These fools still bring up that fake number from Twitter guy even though all official sites reported it did over 150k.

While fighters like Cotto did 50k in his first PPV and i think Crawford will probably do less than 150k as well.

GGG is also much more popular now than he was back then, you realize he is the only fighter in sport who sells out huge venues all over the USA and now even in the UK

He does what a world champion has to do, fight all around the world, not like some of these fake champs who only sit in their backyard with all the advantages in the world and otherwise duck all offers (like Ward never travels outside the USA, even refused a huge rematch vs Froch in England, while GGG accepted the fight in a heartbeat)

Amercians are desperate for some guy because since their beloved God aka womenbeater IVloyd is gladly retired. Ward has no charism and is not exciting, but fights rather dirty, thats why he barely has any fans and that's why there is barely any hype for Ward fights whatsoever.

who is calling him great? he's a knockout machine who is fun and exciting to watch. but he is not great because no one wants to fight him, the onyl way to become great is to beat other greats, and if other greats run away like ward did how is he supposed to earn that title?

No one on earth thinks Kov is an easier fight than gg for ward ward would bully little g

How you losers keep telling yourself and others that false number just shows you can't be taken seriously.

Over 150k is the real number and the PPV did a profit. Is that bad? No, is it great? No.

For a first PPV 150k for a Kazakh fighter in the US is really decent.

Strange that all real boxing sites reported the fight did 150k+ huh?
