    The number is the number; i don't even want to argue that, because it's not all that relevant.

    Crawford-Khan is heading to a likely flop on ESPN PPV because Amir Khan is getting $5m and Crawford is getting at least his $3m.

    Paying Wilder $12.5m, paying Breazeale whatever he's going to get (Breazeale is a called WBC mandatory, and Haymon looks after both Wilder and Breazeale), put an undercard under that, yet you still expect all of that to be aired on regular ESPN or even ESPN+. Lol.

      Fury didn’t punk out. He’s making more money now and Fury got wilder more money too. Wilder would have been fighting Breazle for 3 million or less on SHO and thanks rob bob Arum and Fury he will quadruple his salary. Probably even more once he signs with DAZN.

      There’s no reason for him to stay at pbc. A 3-4 fight deal with DAZN or espn would make him the most money and give him legacy defining
      Fights.
      Tyson Fury is set to fight a can on ESPN+ for $4m, with that likely set to be the rate for the rest of the 5-fight deal if Deontay Wilder doesn't come over and give him another title shot on an ESPN PPV, lol. Bob Arum already killed that little story, in case you didn't know, lol.

      We'll see what Wilder-Breazeale will do on May 18th; with the heat that Wilder picked up from the Fury fight, the heat that Wilder picked up after Fury walked away from $17m and half the upside to fight a tune-up for $4m, and Spence-Garcia happening this coming Saturday clearing the next 10 weeks for Showtime/FOX/FS1 to push the PPV with nothing really competing against it, it's pretty much certain that you're wrong.

      With Wilder-Breazeale still covering and making money, your story unravels even further.

      $35m is the take off of 1m homes at $75/$65; Canelo cashed out his next 10 fights because 1)he still got to keep Mexico and his sponsors to himself and 2)someone was ready to front the next 10 Canelo-TBA fights at each drawing 1m homes.

      How much do you think the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world would command in guaranteed money to shun PPV? Especially when Anthony Joshua, the only fight even worth bothering with at the moment, is also not bound to any US broadcaster, lol.

        With you clearly not being from here, it's far more likely that you'll be watching the fight on ITV, while waiting on baited breath to pay the equivalent of $35 to watch Anthony Joshua fight (not Wilder/Fury/Whyte) Jarell "Big Baby" Miller at 3am [not sure what the UK does with HD feeds].

          We can, with some confidence, say that Amir Khan is getting $5m to fight Terence Crawford.

          If you want to now say that Terence Crawford is somehow getting $10m to fight the "dangerous, lol" Amir Khan on PPV, come out and say it, lol.

          Whatever Crawford is getting, he and Khan together aren't getting the $12.5m that Wilder alone has been offered, yet their fight is on PPV (with basically no one talking about it and that fight already being a month out).

          How do you make sense of that? Deontay Wilder getting offered double what Crawford/Khan are likely guaranteed to make, yet Wilder's fight is the one that won't be PPV, lol.

            U also ignore the fact that Joshua makes over 20 mil a fight without showtime. Canelo over 35 mil a fight. Showtime isn’t needed to give wilder his career high payday.

            Wilder is just now learning that Haymon and pbc has been under paying him
            Whatever Crawford makes, it sure as heck isn't near the $12.5m that was offered to Wilder, yet Crawford's fight is headed to a flop on PPV in a few weeks, lol.

            Fury gets $4m for his tune-up, while Wilder gets offered $12.5m; nice.

            Beyond that, Wilder-Joshua is world's bigger than the $20m that Joshua makes in the UK, lol. If you can't see that, that's your problem.

                Eddie Hearn, when the purses and viewing figures for the Wilder vs Breazeale mega fight are released.

                  Most sites of this size subscribe to industry metric reports that suggest new key words to use for headlines based on what is most likely to be clicked or reposted on facebook. You have a good eye. "_____ smiles" is a hot one right now. I've seen it on a lot of sites the last 3-4 weeks.
