    Spence/Crawford viewership history. 50/50 fair or not?

    Spence vs Ocampo = 726k peak
    Spence vs Peterson = 695k peak
    Spence vs Brook = 337k peak

    Crawford vs Benavidez = 2.7mil peak
    Crawford vs Indongo = 1.2mil peak
    Crawford vs Diaz = 1mil peak

    Another thing we could take into consideration is the social media buzz on both names. In a recent interview even Hearn is admitting that part of their success in britain is their embracing of the culture, citing a fltv(kugan) youtube interview that garnered 1mil+ views.

    If you search youtube and filter to view count:

    "Terence Crawford" results in:
    3.6mil Crawford v Gamboa highlights
    3.1mil Crawford v Gamboa full fight
    2.7mil Crawford v Horn highlights
    1.8mil Crawford v Benavidez weigh-in
    1.7mil Crawford, Pacquiao, horn video
    1.6mil Crawford v Horn highlights
    1.5mil Crawford v Postol highlights
    1.3mil JMM thoughts on Crawford
    1.1 Crawford V benavidez full fight
    1mil Crawford v Horn highlights

    "Errol Spence" results in:
    1.7mil Errol Spence KO highlights
    1.4mil Errol Spence vs Pacquiao video
    1.3mil Spence, Broner, Davis, Easter clowning
    1mil Spence V Garcia breakdown video

    50/50 fair or not?

    Nope


    Postol Crawford 50K
    Khan Crawford 150K

    Garcia Spence 375k

    One Spence PPV outsold 2 Crawford PPVS and you could argue Lhan is more popular than Garcia. Also we don’t care what Hearn says that’s Britain not USA

    60-40 for Spence

      That doesn’t make any sense. The LDBC themselves hyped a PPV mismatch...

      Was it Spence buyers that wanted to see a mismatch? Or Mikey fans buying, hoping Mikey would win, in a mismatch?

      If mismatches are waived to say Khan was a mismatch, yet he got the KO from
      What fans theorized unlike Spence, then that means Postol is left, and therefore the 50k bout with Postol overrides the Garcia and Khan bouts.

      But of course you’re LDBC.. you said Mikey was suspect because of SNAC and yet you hype the Spence Mikey PPV. That’s ******ed my friend... just sayin..

        By your ****** logic Liam Smith would be the A side vs Charlos and Hurd and Khan would be the A side vs Spence sinde Khan did 600k vs Canelo.

        Lets see Spence vs a none Mexican fighter on PPV.

        Lets see how Spence does against Porter.. ohh wait, the fight wont be on PPV right? Why do you think that is so?

            He came out dressed as Captain Mexico and it wasnt a Mexican holiday. There are plenty of black people in Texas so why wasnt he repping his people or at least Texas state colors. Why Mexico. I know what majority fanbase bought the fight and who they were rooting for. The Porter fight not being PPV further drives home the point.

                Bottom line is money. Crawford has earned 3x what Spence earned in the three fights prior to their last fight. Thye likely earned about the same for their PPV fights since Bud was guaranteed more on the front end plus a percentage. They are equally matched, thye each hold a belt, and it’s a 50/50 fight. Money should be 50/50.

                  If you can justify wilder getting 50% for aj you can certainly justify Crawford getting 50% for Spence.

                    When has the Charlos headlined a PPV ******? When the Charlos headline a PPV then you can try to make that comparison.
                    Use your brain before you post something ******. Spence Bundu did 6m views more than any Crawford fight. Was Bundu Mexican? Spence Thurman is going to outsell both of Crawford ppvs also.
                    The fight won’t be on PPV but if it was it would definitely do more than Khan Crawford.
