    I think they would be lucky to get over 150k PPV buys.

    Your right Pac and Floyd was just years and years of waiting. I seem to be the only one who didn't buy that fight. I usually always buy fights also. Bought the Postol/Crawford snoozefest

    Berto or Connor werent on those days.

      Canelo really messed up this situation, I can see why GGG would be pissed off at him. Canelo now needs GGG to clear his name and GGG has all the belts that Canelo wants

      Hope they can save the May 5 date for GGG, I’ve already booked flights and hotels to see the big drama show

        I'll watch GGG's fight the following Saturday.

        Loma/Linares
        Beefy/Ali
        GGG/Hopefully Andrade/Charlo/Sergiey

          I know it won't happen but Zurdo/GGG on Cinco De Mayo would do solid numbers.

            I bought that fight but have streamed most fights since. The only ones I actually paid for since then were cotto vs canelo and Canelo vs ggg. I paid for mayweather vs mcgregor also but strictly to have a fight party, otherwise I would've streamed that one too. Mayweather vs berto was on the Sept Mexican holiday weekend but did **** numbers. Ggg is basically short on options since charlo and jacobs have scheduled fights already and saunders won't be ready for may. He could move up to 168 but that's high risk low reward. He's basically screwed because of this so I understand him being pissed.

              You obviously don't follow boxing. Jermall has been calling this bum out. Matter of fact he even went on a rant on Nelo, lil g, Tank & broner.

              Since he has the fight on the april 21st he could scrap that fight & fight lil g 2 weeks later! But of course it threatens your fake hype lil g & you lil g fans DON'T want that! #Lions Only!

                  Why don't they just ask Jermall to forget his fight which is only 2 weeks from May 5 to fight golovkin?

Charlo already has a fight scheduled just two weeks before that, so his training camp and all that is pretty close to the same.

                    Of course, I doubt we see that. If its not Saunders, then it will almost certainly be someone of no worth. As for Andrade, what can you say except, when you never even have a fight scheduled, that does always make you available should something like this happen.
                    You hit it right on the money!

                      If they must keep that date then fair enough.

                      Still you can't deny that GGG vs BJS would be the second biggest fight in the division for all the belts that would make for a better replacement. Jermall is completely unproven at 160.
