GGG vs Brook. Who was the PPV draw?

[robertzimmerman]

All those are against British fighters, which would be the draw. If Golovkin fought Jacobs in the UK how well would it do?

As always, you've completely missed the point.

Yes, a British fighter will interest the fans. But in this case, it was GG who helped generate the huge numbers.

You really think GG was just an opponent, and it was Kell who most people were interested in?

Get real.

A Spence fight at the O2 wouldn't generate anywhere near the revenue that GG did. It would bomb in comparison.

You've been told to look at the figures for when Brook fought Gavin and he had AJ etc on the card.

Kell Brook isn't a big draw.

You'll find anything you can to hate on GG. It's pathetic.

FOTY. RIP ginger kid.

Of course Golovkin was part of the draw, but he wasn't the A-side. If you need a British fighter to sell PPV then the British fighter is the main draw. It's common fucking sense.

In the U.K. It was brook easily over here in the states it was ggg easily

Kell Brook was not the main reason that the fight generated 600k. That's the point dumbass.

What if GG came back to the U.K. and fought a guy like Martin Murray? That would do respectful numbers on PPV, and without being disrespectful, hardly anybody would care about Murray.

What about Eubank?

Keep hating.

No, no it wouldn't.

Again you keep naming British fighters. If Golovkin is the draw in Britain he wouldn't need to fight a British fighter.

[robertzimmerman]

No, no it wouldn't.

Yes, it would do respectful numbers. British fans can't wait to see his return. They would pay to see him against a Murray or Smith type opponent.

Regarding Brook, it was his first fight in Britain you absolute SIMPLETON.

Of course he needed a British opponent to garner interest in his DEBUT. But again, most of the people tuned in to see what the hype was all about. He was the main reason that the fight generated the huge numbers.

You don't need to be Columbo to work it out.

Again, go and look at Kell's figures when he fought Gavin, that included AJ and a host of title fights on the bill. Then look at the fact that he's never headlined another PPV.

Now that GG and Brook was so successful, GG could come here and do well again on PPV. But it's obvious if Matchroom had him back it would be part of a British bill. Why wouldn't it be!? They're a British promotional company with a big stable of British fighters. Why would they bring him over but not feature their own guys?? It would never happen. But that doesn't mean that under different circumstances they wouldn't be able to sell him to the U.K. public against a non British/British based fighter though.

No he wasn't. A British fighter fighting a "P4P" fighter is what sold it. Brits always turn out to support their own in big events. Golovkin wouldn't sell shit without a Brit in the other corner. If he was the draw you think he is he would have all his fights in the UK.

I know what sold it you clown. But GG was more responsible than Kell was for the viewing figures.

If he'd have fought Eubank, it would have been the same result.


The bottom line is:

You'll do ANYTHING to discredit GG because you hate the guy.

You love quoting the Lemieux figures, but when he's involved in a 600k PPV, it was all Kell's doing, even though his history proves otherwise.

You're an absolute clown.

[Pigeons]

If GG was to come back to the U.K. to fight Eubank on PPV, and Spence was to come over and fight Brook on PPV, GG's fight would obliterate it in terms of revenue.

You have no evidence of this. You're just projecting. Straight up guessing and trying to pass it as fact.
