    They need a really good card. Fighters that can sell PPV buys.

    REALLY? It was on Sport Center today?
    They should really promote the ***** out of that fight.
    Do First Take, Undisputed whatever they can do to promote it.
    Would be great if Tyson Fury had his training camp at Big Bear. He would be more available to the media.

    This is the biggest heavyweight fight in the USA since Lewis vs. Tyson, which was 16 years ago.

      If they are really smart. They put Mickey vs. Spence as co-main event.
      Then they definitely will do 500K.
      I don't think that's smart because it's not feasible all four are going to want massive pay days which one PPV isn't going to be able to cover.

      They are going to look to have Mikey and Spence headline a PPV not be a co-main of one.

        Maybe it's Mikey vs Spence?
        That's what the translation said but I was confused because he called him Alvarez and that's not the guys name. Unless his name is Alvarez and he's using a different screen name.

        And this is the second part of the tweet where it looks like they're talking about something different

          I think they’ll do all of those. And more. Plenty of time to promote it.

              Maybe you are right. But Mickey vs. Spence is a really weak PPV headliner.
              Don't know if a joint PPV card don't do more with the buys and gate together than separately.

                I’d be surprised if that’s the co. Highly unlikely. I’d be surprised if it’s a PPV period

                  Rumblings are it will be if it happens.

                  I'm skeptical it happens though.

                  I'd way rather they just do Wilder-Fury and have Spence fight Porter-Danny winner and Mikey fight Lomachenko.

                    Same here. Not buying the rumblings. But of course, I don't see Mikey fighting Loma anytime soon, if ever.

                      Not sure who the **** is Alvarez tbh. Seems like they're talking about some other fighter there.
