It will do better than the Gavin fight but i still don't see a lot of casuals buying a Brook v Spence PPV. A lot of people knew the name Golovkin, he had been marketed as the most dangerous fighter in the world and a wrecking machine etc. etc. has evidence of KO's and highlight reel ones. He was very sellable.
Even if Spence is supposedly the next big thing for American boxing, i still think it's hard to sell that to the casual market right now without evidence or reputation.
I do think it'll sell alright but not too many casuals will be willing to fork out for PPV for this one i think. I think they should have just put it on Sky Sports 1 personally.
To me, Brook isn't yet a PPV fighter even if the GGG fight sold well. It was the event and the curiosity of Brook fighting GGG that made it sell.
