    Lol, so they are taking advantage of NO sports? You do realize when these PPVs happen that sports like MLB, NBA and NFL will be back, correct?

    Would Charlo vs Derevyanchenko as a stand alone be a PPV? No, but that wouldn't have been PPV even with Covid. They had to put his brother on the same card in a unification bout with some other solid names. Derevyanchenko is making probably at least 3M, and then both Charlo's are going to make that range if not a little more. A network wouldn't have been able to afford that card without PPV.

    UFC does monthly PPVs all the time. Nothing changed in that regard. And you said journeyman just did 1.3M buys? He's one of the most popular fighters in combat sports. Wins and losses doesn't determine popularity in the UFC. Nick Diaz became a huge name after the two McGregor fights and Masvidal just headlined a PPV against Diaz the fight prior. Trust me, VERY few boxers are bigger names than Masvidal.
    You are getting defensive Af. You getting paid for defending PBC on here?

    It is taking advantage of a long period of time without any boxing let alone good fights like this one. Boxing fans are starving for a good, big fight. I think some of those fans who normally wouldn't have bought this card will do now

    If you don't think UFC being the only sport during the pandemic had anything to do with that fight doing 1.3 million thwn you're a fool

    when he fought Diaz for that bmf belt that fight was getting huge publicity for months prior yet the final buys weren't even released. Hmm iwonder why.
    Masvidal might be a big name in UFC but he was a late replacement in this fight yet the numbers for this fight were huge. What a coincidence

      Defensive? No, but you just make no sense. First it was there are no sports and now it is because fans are craving for good, big fights? I mean in that case, the buys should be GREAT for these cards, correct? Yet, I bet the Charlo card does under 250k buys, and maybe even under 200k buys.

      Final buys weren't released? Since when were the final buys released for Masvidal vs Usman? Did I miss something? Coppinger is the one that broke how many buys it did, a number that was then disputed by others like Meltzer. But Masvidal is even bigger after the Diaz fight.

      Late replacement? Sure, still a weeks notice and how many people buy the PPVs a week out before the fight? And Usman was coming off a big win against Covington that was made into a race war so he had good momentum.

      But did the other UFC PPVs also do big buys during the pandemic since they were the only sport out? And again, by the time these two PPVs take place, you will have damn near every sport league in business while also have a Canelo fight.

      As I said, Tank vs LSC was always going to be PPV with or without Covid. Par for course there.

      SHO nor FOX would have been able to afford the Charlo brothers card though, not when the opponent for one of the fights is making around 3M. And Rosario being a unified champion isn't going to take chump change against Jermell either. Then you add no gate revenue plus other revenue in the arena? Yeah, PPV was the only way this was going to work.

        Yeah same here man, people forget how big of an upset that was, Showtime were pushing Darchinyan hard at the time.

        Nonito is one of those few fighters who will literally fight anyone.

              I doubt it but it would be great if cards were between $25-30. I'd be willing to pay more if you make unification fights or fights between top guys.
              Make it 50$ and put 3 championship worthy fights on the card. Stack that b!tch ala Don King.

                That is always another option because I think people will pay if they see the product is worth it.
