    Also you said that [I]"1 million dollars worth of tickets doesn't even begin to show it would be a PPV success. They are not connected".[/I] This just goes to show how unhinged and insane you are. At this pace that it is currently selling; It could potentially not only break many box office records but also potentially Pay per view records as well.

    As far as Fury is concerned; Who knows him? He is hardly even known in the states. He fought here only once in his career against a light heavyweight by the name of Steve Cunningham who knocked him on his ass. In a sense you are right. He may be driving up the ticket sales but not by any of his fans but by fans who want to see Deontay Wilder knock him flat on his ass for good this time.
    I never said you lived in the UK. WTF are you talking about?

    So selling tickets means it's going to be a PPV success? That doesn't even make any sense. It could be a sell out and still flop on PPV.

    You think this fight between 2 unknowns is going to break PPV records? You're mentally ill aren't you? You've escaped from the asylum and you're on the run. But to keep yourself entertained, you've decided to come on this forum. It all makes sense now. Haha. Damn are you ****ing crazy.

    Of Course it's Fury selling those tickets. As I've already said, we know that Wilder can't sell tickets for ****. 40 fights tell us this fact regardless of you not taking your medication.

Ortiz was the fighter no one wanted to fight because he was the the kost dangerous hw out there. In fact i still believe ortiz beats ANY hw out there right now except wilder. Now team wilder are parlaying the recent found popularity into a huge fight with fury.. If he kos fury, he will be a huge star! I think this ppv can do over 1 million buys here in usa if not way more. Team aj is going to have a major problem dealing with wilder when he kos fury simply because WILDER will then become the BIGGEST money producer in all of boxing. Call me deluded all you want but lets sit back and see if my prediction comes true. Americans have been foaming at the mouth for a great hw champion and i have a funny feeling wilder will explode in popularity during and after the fight with fury. lets see what happens my friend.
      Wilder won't make any money outside of Fury, Whyte and Joshua. So you're living in dream world.

      Mexicans buy the most PPV's but you think it will do the same as the Canelo/Golovkin fights or more? Well aren't you going to be disappointed.

Americans are fickle, they ain't going wild over the average fights ... but go really big on the big fights. You Celts & Scots aren't used to having the center-of-attention heavyweights. You'all are spending crazy bucks to see Joshua vs anyone.

        Americans are fickle, but big fights will always do better here than anywhere. Wilder is NOW getting big fights. His Team knows the US market, that's why they could offer and guarantee $50 million to the story changer

        Why are Brits such fangirls though? I support US fighters, and any other fighters that show they have it and want it. But you girls are such shameless cheerleaders ...

        Miller has already ducked Whyte. So he isn't going to get the chance to KO him. And even if he did take the fight, Whyte smacks ten shades of **** out of him in one sided fashion. But Miller doesn't want anything to do with him. He likes fighting shot bums too much.


        That 50 mill guarantee was all down to the star power of Joshua. Nothing more, nothing less. Not because Wilder is a star, because he isn't even close to being one.

        I'm not Celt or a Scot. I'm English. Nor has there been any good Heavyweights that were Scot or Celt. They were all English.

          I don't know where to begin with you. Listen if there is a huge demand for tickets to a concert or sporting event and there are not enough tickets to sale or go around because they are all sold out, then tell me what are the consumers going to do?

          They are going to purchase the event on a platform such as pay per view, closed circuit television or even watching it on an online sports streaming service. Historically, When tickets to an event sell out that fast. It is the greatest projection that the event is going to be a pay per view success Sherlock.

          C'mon You are an intelligent guy. You are of the smartest cats on this forum. You should know this already. For instance, Joshua/Povetkin sold out Wembley because there was a huge demand for the fight. So what did the fans do that couldn't buy tickets to the event, for them being all sold out? They purchase it on Pay per view; More than 1.2 Mil of them.

          You are one entertaining dude

            But Whyte? In the US??????

            Whyte, beaten by Joshua and barely surviving Parker
            Whyte, refusing to fight Ortiz who YOU say is washed up, which would GUARANTEE a fight with Wilder
            Whyte, who won't even accept the challenge from Breazeale to replace him as the WBC mandatory

            Whyte?
            What's up with Whyte?
            Why are you and Hearn always pushing WHYTE???
            Hearn offered Wilder by far his biggest payday to fight Whyte. Have you all of a sudden forgotten that?

            Whyte is fresher and more proven than anyone Wilder has fought, so save yourself from arguing otherwise.

            Beating Ortiz wouldn't guarantee Whyte anything. Wilder has already said he'll make Whyte wait for 2 years to get his shot if he takes that fight. Therefore it would be pointless.

            There's a piece on the front page from the WBC saying Brezeale has just been moved to the 4th spot, so I don't think he's even mandatory any more. So a fight at this point doesn't do anything for Whyte.

                    Dude, use your brain. The tickets just went on sale yesterday! They have several weeks to sale this event out.

                      Its like i said, i truly believe american boxing fans both casual and die hards have been foaming at the mouth for a great american hw boxer for around 15 fkn years now! The last good american hws were tyson and holyfield and they were relevant around 15 years ago.. I can definitely see casuals getting behind wilder in a big way if he kos fury.. lets see if im right. we will
                      see how many ppvs wilder fury does.
