    I like how he left out the $7 mil hate for Khan. Fifteen thousand in attendance, $7 mil hate. GGG vs Lemieux, 21K in attendance, $2 mil gate.

    Another question, who besides Canelo is doing $5 mil gates outside of Vegas?

      He also made a bigger gate with Cotto... but the point is Canelo vs a no name. Just like we will compare later Golovkin-Jacobs results. Jacobs can't sell or draw ratings so it's the same.

          We will compare against GGG vs Jacobs which is also GGG vs a no name. Lemieux is also a "no name", don't tell me he was known for casual fans...

          I'm not talking about their fighting skills, but it's known that Jacobs can't sell well. (8k seats on the biggest fight of his life, on his hometown, 300k in ratings). He's the #2 MW but he doesn't sell much unfortuntely.

              Jacobs is a no name now?

              Wade was a no name which is why it wasn't PPV for Golovkin. Jacobs is a bigger name than Smith in America, that's just fact ******. If Canelo fought Jacobs it would do over 500k.

                Maxi Pad taking L's again. You dumb phuk if Canelo faces Jacobs or Lemieux it does way more PPVs then Smith because those guys have ACTUALLY headlined fights on HBO/Showtime. Smith has NEVER fought on US soil or on US TV before. And still it drew 2X PPVs more attendance then GGG fighting bigger names against fighters fans have actually seen before.

                Sorry there is no way spinning GGG in his biggest fight doing half as well as Canelo fighting his worst name opponent who americans and mexicans have never seen before.

                  Maxi Pad making posts that backfire again. LMAO Now trying to tell us that Smith is just as known as Jacobs? How many would show up in NY or any other state in the US if Smith fought anyone NOT named Canelo? And would HBO/Showtime or any network pay for it? Smith is closer to Wade then Jacobs or Lemieux.

                    Don't worry guys, this Maxi guy is just taking blows to the dome for your entertainment. I guess he's a lot like his hero GGG, seeing as how both love to block punches with their face and do it to put on a "big drama show".

                      He's drawing what he drew against Lara & Angulo. The only time he drew more was with Cotto & Mayweather. Two established names.

                      What do you mean he can't get ratings with no names? He got over 2mil viewers with Kirkland.

                      If he were fighting Jacobs the fight would be sold out.

                      And you didn't answer my question. Who else is doing $5 mil gates outside of Vegas?
