Khan vs Canelo only did $27.7 million

[UNBIASED BOXING]

$7.4 million was the live gate.
$60 SD & $70 HD was the cost for the PPV in America.


I guess Canelo isn't as big of a star as peole say he is. Those 330k estimates sound real accurate insteas of the 400-600 BS.

Maybe he really did sell around 200000 PPVs for the Liam Smith fight.

Damn, 27 million must be chump change to you!

Of course not. He is pretty big but he's nowhere close to being a superstar. Floyd and Manny were stars.

HBO and Golden Boy are trying so hard to make Canelo the face of boxing and tell people he's a superstar but it's just not sticking. It's like they feel if they throw enough sh1it, some will stick and people will believe it, but it's not working. Everyone knew who Floyd and Manny were and knew they were top fighters. Most people outside of "hardcore" fans know Canelo as the ginger Mexican that lost to Mayweather.

He might sell more PPV's than anybody else, but the numbers are still not great, it's just everyone else's are low.

Also, this will put to bed those ****** figures like Khan was getting $13m or something. Khan's guaranteed purse for the fight was $2m and Canelo $3.5m + whatever they made on the back end. It's still good money but not superstar and face of boxing money.

Face of boxing doeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

How many ppv did your hero Mexican style gg sell

[NEETzsche]

Didn't HBO decide to stop publishing official PPV figures just before this fight? The numbers seemed bogus from the start

[WesternChamp]

anyone who says canelo is the new face of boxing is an idiot lol. canelo is popular but he's not a household name. he only has a strong backing from his people. aside from the mexicans/americans, nobody really knows who he is.

[aldo5408]

I love how you nerds don't mention how Canelo made 13M that fight
He's offering gg more than what he made himself

[Robbie Barrett]

THat makes that $15 mil Golovkin turned down a fantastic deal then doesn't it?
