ggg vs canelo breaks 2 million ppv buys.

Lol. If Canada actually was as bad a market as you want to say, why in the **** did Kovalev head there twice for his first two multi-million dollar paydays? Population numbers don't mean **** when you're talking about PPV boxing.

On his own name, Alvarez is already a draw on PPV; him vs TBA is likely good for 600k-700k PPV buys without any real worry. And, as much as you are openly trying to minimize things, David Lemieux is a draw in Montreal.

You're drastically overstating the size of draw and business that Golovkin brings to the table, lol

Canelo did under 350 vs Lara and Others. Him vs TBA isn't doing ****. Same as it's always been, when you make a compelling fight, people buy it. Make a **** fight and they'll pass

I read somehwere that Canelo was going to cash between 30 - 40 millions $$$ with this fight and GGG somewhere around 25 - 30 millions $$$

5 million seems way too low, especially for a fight of this magnitude.

A newspaper in the U.K. said that Canelo was guaranteed £11 million and GGG £8 million (before PPV revenues)...

This fight definitely was very huge, my friends who DKSAB came over to my place to watch this fight. While the Canelo vs Chavez fight no one around me even knew it was happening yet that got 1 mill PPV buys, so it does not surprise me that this fight could have done 2 mill PPV's

Why is it taking so long to reveal the REAL numbers? No way they did anywhere close to that. Just not believable.

I was actually wondering the same thing

If true, that's amazing..

Great for boxing, give us the fights we want and fans will spend money.


At 2 million buys, a rematch is guaranteed either in may or September 2018

Cotto-Canelo did almost a million homes, Canelo-ChavezJr apparently did a million homes, Canelo-Khan did over 600k homes, etc.

Even if Canelo vs TBA is locked in at ~400k homes, that's still a $30m take on the US TV ($15m one all of the outside parties are paid).

CashNelo with two 2M+ PPVs.

Give people the fights they want to see and they actually buy them.
