No.

Brook’s first PPV fight was getting smashed to bits by GGG.

Eubank Jr is the worst PPV I can think of but that was £10 and on ITV. Against Quinlan an Aussie club fighter.

But there is obvious levels to this. Even our big PPVs are cheap

I don’t even know why Khan is in there with Crawford.

I can’t understand why they’ve blown $5 million dollars on him.

I can understand the Brook thing they’re both winding down.

But this.

In terms of odds of winning vs purse. Khan is being massively over valued basically.

$5 million gets you Khan who took an age out of the ring and has been through the ringer. I don’t even know how he’s got that value over there.

As a Khan fan I know he’ll get in there - give it a go and get knocked out. And then I hope he retires with that sweet pension pot. He’s been a great ambassador for the game over here from the age of 17.

But as a fight fan I can’t actually bring myself to stay up to 5 a.m to watch what is a
showcase fight for Crawford.

Actually Brooks 1st PPV was against Michael Jennings and it did 15k PPV Buys.
Kell Brook vs Frankie Gavin did 139k
Kell Brook vs Spence did 275k
Kell Brook vs GGG did 500k.

Most of your PPVs are Regular HBO and Showtime level. Your PPVs might be cheaper but they're pretty much fights that we dont pay for.
