    And idk that there are more casuals in the game. What makes you think that.

    I think casuals come around when big fights come around & we got less big fights now then back when Floyd & Manny were becoming who they would become.
    I think you read me wrong
    I’m agreeing with you
    I thought this would hit max 200000
    And to me that was a real push
    So if it hit the numbers they are saying that would be fughin impressive to me

                What are you looking for. I seen boxing fans more excited for this one than any one since Wilder vs Fury. When you see the hardcores excited on SM thats a good bet its in the 300k range.

                Its too bad Manny isnt next. I think that would be a great next fight to get him into the 500k range & getting more casuals throwing money at him. I think Danny could be a dip in buys.
                Just buzz from normal fight/sport fans...I just think boxing pretty clearly has been fading as a sport here for a while, and numbers like this would indicate a big revival in a way...just hard to believe imo.

                It's hard to quantify how big of a star someone is...but I just don't see any basis where Spence is a bigger star currently than Crawford or Gervonta Davis or Kovalev or Loma or Jermall Charlo...like where are the 200k+ ppv buys coming in for him vs Crawford or Charlo...I just don't see the buzz for him being a PPV guy...I think him vs Mikey was probably inflated some and most of those buys were probably from Mikey's fans.

                As I said I will be looking forward to what the payouts for this fight are...if anyone has that data please let me know...if Spence/Porter make about 2 million for this fight then it is clear enough that the fight sold no more than 100k PPV.

                Also, if this sold 300+ PPV, and they then do Spence-Garcia PPV, then I would expect Spence's purse for that fight to be close to $10 million.

                I personally just think those are bogus numbers and that even if they become 'official' it is likely from PBC inflating them as they pretty clearly have motive to make Spence/their fighters look very successful right now...that could take Spence Crawford from a 50-50 split to 70-30 which is potentially 10 million dollars difference.

                So yeah I will be looking at what Spence and Porter are paid here and nothing else really.

                  Why would anyone want high priced PPVs to become a thing, especially for fights that should be on TV or like $10-15 bucks
