    So let's take a look at Canelo's "face of boxing" numbers against Smith.

    Canelo "face of boxing" "Super A-Side" sold 45k tickets against Smith. And 250-300k PPVs.

    WOW, impressive right? not really. The tickets were so cheap that the total gate was just 5 millions. Source.

    Golovkin numbers 2 years ago against Lemieux:

    20k seats, 2 or 2.5 millions in gate.
    150k in PPVs.

    For comparison, Ward-Kovalev sold 3.3 millions in gate. So Canelo did more than that fight, but not a great difference.

    As we see, by himself Canelo doesn't sell as good as he says. He doubles Golovkin's numbers, but that's it.

    And I expect Golovkin-Jacobs to sell better than Golovkin-Lemieux with a gate between 3 and 4 millions and 200k PPVs. So maybe the gap is even less.

              Lol Canelo sold 45k in a 100k stadium. Golovkin sold out msg which is much more impressive.

                  Lol. He's in perpetual failure mode today. One thread backfires, start another, and another, and...

                  Maxi. Break the chain, brother. There's more to boxing than hating on fighters you don't like. Some of us actually have fun watching this stuff. Try rocking a sig that doesn't fighter bash. It feels good. Trust me.
