With the gate, international rights plus merchandise yeah I can see why GGG won't take flat $10 mil. Fight is guaranteed to make over a $100 mil is my point and given that I know GGG wants his cut, however given his age DLH knows GGG needs a big payday soon and this may be his only chance. GGG needs the bread DLH needs to rebuild his stable and company so he needs this fight as well. It will happen fans both actually need each other it's just DLH has the higher ground.
    Even if the fight does 2m at $60 a pop (when there's no indication that the interest in Golovkin is anywhere enough to even get to half of that amount), you'd still be talking about $60m after paying the outside parties, and $45m available to the fighters after the promoters get their piece. $10m to Golovkin and $35m to Alvarez, and you'd still be talking about a 75/25 split of the pot (when Golovkin's actual fight business merits him no more than 85/15, and likely 90/10 after not having to give up any weight).

    If Golovkin was really going to be a part of an event that does 2m, how do you get to that figure after Golovkin could barely get 100k people to pay to see him fight?

        Insane post. GGG could end up being the A side over Canelo by the end of next year.

        • $10mil and have the fight at 157. Get it done!

          What I find strange is, who makes an offer if the fight isn't till a year away with both fighters taking fights in between? Anything can happen between now and next sept. Especially with GGG looking to take on Jacobs in December.

            The matchup is the draw. Not either fighter. What did Canelo do vs Smith? I can guarantee you its a very disappointing number or else it would have already been released.

            Canelo/GGG is a highly anticipated matchup that will probably hit 1mil or slightly over. No way is it hitting 2mil ppv buys though. GGG is still working on becoming a household name while Canelo isn't the superstar that he thinks he is.

              Based on what, lol? Golovkin's going to finally stage The Forum's full building?

              And I'm the insane one?

                The fight was literally just this past Saturday! Even for just the initial estimates, it usually takes till at least the fight re-airs on HBO for anyone to even guess at numbers.

                Yet you're expecting the PPV numbers to have been announced in less than 3 days? when has that ever happened?

                  Even if the fight does 1m PPV buys (which is still a stretch imo, as I don't see the audience that Golovkin is going to bring that'll buy the fight to back him), the money left to the fighters after everyone else is paid (cable companies, HBO, promoters, etc) would basically have things 60/40 Alvarez (on a fight where Alvarez likely ends up bringing 90% of the money).

                    I clearly recall numbers for the May/Pac fight being floated around just days after the fight took place.

                      Numbers that were shown to be utter bull**** once the actual initial numbers came out with the initial satellite numbers (with the number on the event getting up to 4.6 million PPV buys before the updates stopped coming).

                      A quick Google search will show you that near every source that came up waited till 10 days after the event to post numbers on the PPV buys.
