Errol Spence vs Shawn Porter Trending Over 300k Buys

[Ca$ual Fan]

Is Porter a Mexican?

No but Spence already took Mexican followers with him with his shutout victory over Mikey. This would not surprise me as I predicted it can get around these numbers.

PBC did a good job in building up Spence’s career though but his performance against Porter hurts alot about his reputation

So 340,000 times 75 equals 25.5 mil.... depending on how much the split is that’s great money.

Basically $12.5m+ as the PPV proceed. Plus at least another $2m from the live gate, however much for Sky Sports paying the premium over the ITV deal, etc.

$2m likely turns to $6m/$7m pretty darn quick

Damn the hypocrisy on this site! 😆
A few years ago when Canelo-Smith sold about the same amount of ppvs as Spence-Porter the haters on here were calling it a complete failure and making fun of Canelo and Oscar saying they had failed and all that bullshet!
But now it's Spence and PBC selling about the same amount of ppvs and all of a sudden it's a complete success.....
My how the tables have turned,... 😃😄

Market was different a few years ago; ignore that if you want.

Beyond that, Errol Spence Jr is just beginning his run on PPV, so don't be confused.

The Liam Smith fight was Canelo's 5th PPV fight, after being built up and taking on Floyd in his first shot at PPV, with the Cotto PPV happening two years after that; both fights did great on PPV. lol

Crawford. Please. Beg. Again.

Kneel.

Bob Arum has the audacity to ask 50-50 when Crawford-Khan did 150K buys???

Surprisingly strong. I don't think even Pac would have pulled in much more with Porter. Spence seems to have some drawing power. Dude hasn't even had the star boost a lot of fighters get, like Canelo did from fighting Mayweather. He's getting this momentum on his own.

PAC Bradley 3 did about 400K
PAC Broner did 400K
PAC Thurman did 500K

PAC Porter would probaly do about 400K...

[Scipio2009]

So who would be the guy to shoot Spence up? Pac only one I can think of. As much as I love Bud, he doesnt draw PPV nearly as good and ESPN cant promote him worth ****.

Likely Canelo at 160lbs, tbh.

Spence is going to get the opportunity to organically build his following, so we'll see how that goes (fought Mikey on PPV, fought Porter on PPV, seemingly set to fight Danny on PPV, likely Pacquiao after that on PPV, and then possibly Keith Thurman on PPV, before moving up to 154lbs to fight the WBC/WBA/IBF champ, and staying there); Canelo's going to finish up the DAZN deal, whatever his record is, and he'll likely head back to PPV in need of a major PPV fight.

PAC Bradley 3 did about 400K
PAC Broner did 400K
PAC Thurman did 500K

PAC Porter would probaly do about 400K...

Porter doesn't draw as much as those 3 matches and that would put it exactly where I said, not a lot more than Spence did.

Everyone is calling 300k PPV buys a success and celebrating. All it means is us having to pay for fights that shouldn’t be PPV. 400k ppv sales was laughable not too long ago. 🤦🏽*♂️ #SpencePorter #NoVaseline

I don’t consider PPV success a victory for boxing. Again, we had Porter-Thurman - also a great fight - on free FOX in 2016. Things seemed to be trending in a positive direction. Now? Back to PPV. The way some fans excitedly track PPV buys, it almost seems they prefer spending $75 https://t.co/h56dQHXNCx

thats because canelo was in the market. now that hes gone pbc is trying to swoop in and get the suckers but they arent getting as many suckers unfortunately. at least they are being smart and not handing out huge guarantees except to wilder which is destroying all their profits. they probably have ot guarantee him 10-15 million for that bomb of an ortiz rematch. hearn is doing the same thing that haymon did to hbo. driving up the price and forcing him to pay big money. haymon prob wants to kill himself the dopey cu-nt got played. did he really think wilder was going to be a million dollar ppv attraction? based on...nothing. this is why you dont get emotionally attached like haymon did. wilders numbers were meh but he made a wild gamble that he would turn into a huge star and preemptively paid him that kind of money. now his entire business is huring and bleeding money. showtime is basically dead so there's one outlet down and dazn has even more leverage with more moeny to spend now that they didnt waste it on wilder.

dazn already said they won’t be shelling out like that. this entire post is kinda weird. take out your bias and emotion.
