    Private message THAT mfer then.

    I call out corny fanboy & hater sh^t for being corny fanboy & hater sh^t. Thats what your Bizarro Frankie heel turn seems like to me. The initial thread topic was worth talking/commenting on. This random agenda lean you went on is just weirdo sh^t.

    At least use intelligent angles if you are in some battle of wits & cherry picking a dumbass like Frankie2Jabs for some reason.

    That Robbie bet situation got you shook or something I feel like maybe.

    But again to the question you avoided I ask what does gate have to do with PPV buys???

      Wilder and Fury weren’t guaranteed 50million dollars either like Canelo and Jacobs. Does this really have to be explained.

        not true. Look at his dates vs Judah and baldomir. Way under $6 million gates

          doesnt need to sell out. It’s 4k more seats than mgm and floyd didn’t sell out mgm vs marquez, Maidana 1 or 2, Berto or guerrero. Doesn’t need to be a sell out to be a success.

          Wilder fury wasn’t close to a sell out either and people claim those are good numbers

            Don’t stand corrected. He conveniently left out Floyd van baldomir and vs judah which didn’t come close to sniffing those numbers he mentions as Floyd’s lowest.

              These numbers are alright, not amazing, but probably better than anyone in North America not named Pacquiao. Canelo is the cashcow in North America, but he's not as compelling as a prime Mayweather, Pacquiao, De La Hoya, Tyson, etc....

              I don't think its fair to put him up against those legit PPV monsters. I wouldn't expect him to do the numbers of the other PPV boxing kings before him. He barely speaks any English how is the average American supposed to relate. He really only appeals to Mexicans, and Mex-Americans. A big goddamn market don't get me wrong, but still only 1 market.

                I know that he left those out, but Floyd wasn't a cash cow then like Canelo.

                  Nah he specifically said Floyd’s lowest numbers in Vegas. He blatantly lied

                    Those numbers are not that bad, I mean Jacobs is not a star

                      Kudos to Canelo and Jacobs. I'm surprised people would pay 9 mil to see a boxing event. Boxing is doing well. Boxers need to step up more.
