Comments Thread For: Hearn: Deontay Wilder Not a PPV Star; Talks With His Team Better

[uppercut510]

If Wilder fought Povetkin, Parker or Takam in the UK I'm pretty sure they would be PPV. If AJ fought any of those guys in the US, no way they're on PPV. For god sakes, Brook/Gavin was on PPV in the UK. The UK standard for fighting on PPV doesn't say much.

whyte chrisora is on ppv lol

Neither does blocking punches and feinting. Effective aggression anyone?

you my friend ought to read breadman's mailbag, he does a good piece of how incompetent people are when it comes to scoring and im sure u drop right into that category. its boxing, even making someone miss continuously has to be scored. Fury took Wilder to school and now that hes shared the ring with him it will only make the rematch easier for him (ala Ward v Kovalev2)

I was a wilder fan but not anymore. He lost against fury.

You want someone to respond back to you with racism so you can respond with more racist jokes. I figured you race baiting trolls out

Took him to school... That's a very strong statement when you consider how little fury connected and how ineffective the punches we're when he did connect. I thought he did very well in suppressing wilder but in my opinion suppression with no aggression is hardly "taking someone to school". Do I think wilder shut him out? No it was a draw at it's best. Doubt breadman would argue that and even if he did that's his opinion. Everyone's got one.

Then why didn't Wilder give Fury 50%?
Without Fury, Wilder would still be fighting on undercards.

It's been a long time since Wilder was fighting on
somebody's undercard. Fury, in contrast, fought his first
two 'comeback' fights on other people's undercard in the UK.

Hearn showing what a dense promoter he is. Seems not to understand the PPV dynamics in America.

Then why wasn't Wilder vs Ortiz a PPV? Unless you're saying Ortiz is nobody compared to Povetkin, Parker or Takam. Which is it?

I'm saying Wilder vs all those guys u mentioned in the UK would be PPV fights. All of AJs fights in the US wouldn't be PPV but regular cable. The UK PPV standard is so low that they put any decent fight on PPV. IN the US, we get those quality type fights on regular cable, US PPV is for big fights. Ortiz is on the same level as those guys. If you're in the UK, aren't you guys having to pay for Whyte/Chisora and Frampton/Warrington PPVs this weekend? Is that really PPV level fights? Not in the US they aren't, even if they were fighting in the US, they would still be regular cable fights.

Klitchsko is definitely an atg.. also I'm pretty sure ppv numbers are international bozo..Joshua is busy fighting his b level lackies for pennies on the dollar... Sorry Wilder is making more without Joshua don't be butt hurt about it.

He’s an atg? How is that possible because Joshua only fights bums

These Brits are happy to be paying PPV prices for fights that would be regular cable fights. Talking about PPV stars and buys when their PPV standard is so low that they would put Brook/Gavin on PPV. Every big fight that was put on in the US this year would be on PPV if they fought in the UK as opposed to any of the fights that were on UK PPV, would be regular cable fights in the US.
