    Ive probably been to more fights in my life than you. It has nothing to do with being poor, idiot. It has to do with my having IPTV. So go and ead, weirdo.

      I havent paid for a ppv in years. I dont see the point tbh. Majority of ppv cards nowadays are HORRIBLE. I used to throw fight parties all the time. Now, I go to other peoples houses or enjoy fights on iptv.

        Silly to make such a claim, sets yourself up a fail.

        A sensible guy would be far more conservative and say 1 mil which would still have sounded awesome, Infact 750k would have been ok. So to say 750k minimum sounds positive. Now if they make 1.5 mil everyone will be screaming it’s an epic failure .

        The danger I guess is they need 2 mil to break even?

        For what it’s worth I doubt I’ll pay ppv prices for these. It depends on the undercard - but I can’t see it being an exciting fight. The last card was boring in my opinion, it just happened to have a knockdown late on which fury got up from - if that didn’t happen it would have been another fury/Klitschko which nobody was happy about!

            It is a bad habit of promoters to insist that their events will break records, but you can't expect them to give honest assessments on these types of things. Still though, 2M PPV buys is a pipe dream.

              Yup, that's very sensible. I used to order a lot of fights before too. Now I stream or go to a movie theater or a sports bar or friends house.

                I'll stream it, but the last fight ******. Fury outboxed for 10 rounds and played spoiler and made Wilder look amateur. Wilder landed 2 lucky punches to score 2 KDs. Nothing else happened.

                The predictions for this event are hysterical XD XD XD

                    Lol.....you don't sound convinced like the first.
                    Am sure you have learnt one or two things from the first fight.
