Comments Thread For: Stephen Espinoza: Market Will Respond To Showtime PPVs

[tokon]

I like these fights but still feels a bit iffy throwing them on PPV. If anything, this would seem like a good opportunity to put on a PPV at a slightly lower price point & see how things shake out.

Although prices have not been announced yet, a cheaper-than-usual price for these would have been a nice touch.

Tank - Santa Cruz is a showcase for the much bigger guy. Unless I got two or three to split the cost, in good conscience I can't see paying for that.
I'd gladly pay $50 for the Charlo fights... $75, hmmmm...????

Tank and widely unpopular fighters does not go hand in hand.....

He's the only semi-popular guy on either PPV and even then he isn't really that popular. We shall see though, I expect his PPV to do better than the Charlo bros as nobody really knows them at all, even though they have the better match ups

Should be like Hearn's PPVs. No more than $30

Who are the popular fighters stateside in your opinion?

Canelo, unfortunately Ryan Garcia as I'm told on social media apps but I don't subscribe to them, Pacquiao, Wilder gained more popularity from Fury fights as did Fury, GGG. There aren't many as boxing isn't a major sport. The guys I mentioned casuals at work actually ask me about

And I am pretty damn sure Tank will out do any of non-Canelo PPVs that GGG had. Fury? Without Wilder he sells like 4-5k tickets and does only a million gate or even a little below it. Garcia? We shall see as he continues to headline cards but nothing Garcia has done has topped Tank's 2M+ gate he did against Gamboa.

You are missing Spence on the list but the guys over Tank unquestionably are Canelo, Pacquiao and Wilder. He can compete with any other fighter in terms of popularity and drawing power.

I think Spence is popular but i'm a boxing fan and he isn't talked about too much among casuals I know, I think he's growing and will be up there though if he can pick up where he left off. I hope Tank can carry a PPV, they are at least doing something smart with matching him with a Hispanic fighter but I don't even think LSC is that popular as casuals don't pay too much attention to the lower weights. We shall see if he can do well on PPV while asking people to spend 60-75 dollars during a rough economic time. I don't think those things coupled together will lead to that much success, but I hope I'm wrong as I want to see boxing flourish and we need young exciting fighters to carry the sport

Charlo Brothers Card is fine I think that can do some respectable number for their first PPV if promoted properly

Tank vs Leo...of course they will need Mayweather out promoter that one for that to do well and they need to load up the Card

[djb914]

The Charlo Card is a GREAT PPV, I will HAPPILY buy it.
