    No, idiot.

    Kovalev had to wait because he had a fight with Yarde.

      Dude I am talking about the night of the Canelo-Kovalev fight, where DAZN made them wait over 90 min after the co-main was over because the UFC was going on. Someone said that Fox wouldnt dare go head-to-head with a Canelo fight (Spence-Pac for example) and I was pointing out that ESPN/UFC went head to head on the same night with Canelo-Kovalev and did very well

        The fact that Canelo vs an unknown Liam Smith had comparable PPV numbers to the biggest stars on PBC shows why this is not a good idea.

        Wilder Vs Fury - Top 3 Heavyweights
        Spence Vs Porter - Unification fight
        Spence Vs Garcia - Two undefeated p4p fighters

        Pacquiao does sell PPVs, but the live gate for his fights against Thurman and Broner was around 6M. Canelo's live gate Vs Jacobs and Kovalev was 8M+ in Vegas. In fact the live gate against Liam Smith was 5M in Texas, he had 50K people in attendance against the unknown fighter.

        Canelo is a superstar, PBC does not have a single comparable star. Pacquiao is formidable but he's on his way out.
        Fury was not known in America. He hadn't fought here since the Eddie Chambers fight and had been off over 2 years. Stop it
