Errol Spence Jr vs Shawn Porter Sells 13k Tickets, $2.3M Live Gate

Here is the full report:

Spence's guarantee was around 7-8M, NOT 2M. Reported purse is not the same as guaranteed purse. Fury's reported purse was 1M last fight when he is making over 10M a fight with his ESPN deal.

Source? I didn’t hear anything about Spence being guaranteed $7M.

Don't worry, soon enough boxingscene and other sites will start posting this information.

im shocked. Kudos to spence

[KTFOKING]

same with USA. Especially when mgm buys a few thousand tix to como to their players. Still counts as a ticket sold

Nah, UK is WAY more secretive with their information. You still get A LOT more in the US. Literally not one UK reporter will get their hands on a commission report or even have a feel for PPV buys.

From Coppinger's chat. He said his guarantee is $7-8M which is a little less than his 9M guarantee against Mikey but that fight was also predicted to do more buys and better gate…..Which it did.

Edit: Here is what he wrote in response to being asked if there is any chance Spence/DSG is on regular FOX:

@Tyler S. I don't see them budging, hard to do so when Spence is being guaranteed in the neighborhood of $7/8 million

I’m not buying it. All other real sources quote only $2M guarantee and neither of them ever disputed that.

L-O-L, if you believe he only made 2M. Those other sites are just using the reported figure amount. The man was making more than 2M against O'Campo, yet you're saying he only made 2M against Porter in a PPV fight? Hilarious, so are you then saying he only made 3M against Mikey since that was the reported purse?
