        Not surprised at all. Millions will sit there and watch them play a damn video game. Of course they can get a couple hundred thousand suckers to pay to watch them fight.

            Its funny how promoters are clueless just copy these youtube stars they have zero talent but knew you can make money off well edited videos direted toward teens, if boxing promoters would build up some young fighters like Gervonta Davis or Ryan Garcia on youtube put them a channel like KSI and the Paul bros and film them 3 episodes a week they would gain a youth fan base and then charge a good fee on youtube ppv thats money in the bank and they could fight 3 times a year and make 20 million total off that.

            The fights were very good too, nobody on that card came to lay down they showed more will than a lot of pro boxers so you know they gave the fans their moneys worth and only 10 bucks? thats a deal

            Thats a lot of money for these guys

            This youtube boxing cards are fun to watch too, at least they settling their beefs as men and not being *****es or using guns.

            Don't forget these guys make millions off their youtube as well this fight was highly searched so I wouldn't doubt they made 10 million this month alone from the build up off their youtube.

                Not bad..

                Im guessing youtube as distributor will take their typical dist. Fee of around 50% leaving Paul and KSI to split about 5 to 6.5 million.

                Definitely made over a million bucks each after taxes not bad at all!!

                Didn't become the "most watched boxing match ever" some predicted - and would do 5 million buys (figure I heard being tossed around).

                Still this is great for boxing. Just bring more attention to the sport we love. Which means more people investing money in it which means better fights more often for us.

                  I'm not sure who won, but they could probably make a bunch more money doing a "but how would they do against a realboxer" fight. They may get seriously injured or brain damaged, but tons of people would pay to see the winner of that fight Canelo Alvarez or something.

                    I don't know who's who or who deserved to win, saw it was a draw, but well done to them. They found a way to exponentially improve their worth. Hopefully this brings attention to the actual sport of boxing, but I don't know.
