    It’s PPV because the Showtime execs don’t want anything to do in paying premiums for the card. What are the guarantees to the fighters?

      I think both cards are fine. I think the issue is pricing. Charlos and Tank Shouldn’t be charging the same as Spence or wilder imo.

      If they get top dollar, great. I just think the better way right now is $19-30 cost.

        Tank-LSC likely isn’t going to do super well & going head-head with UFC (Khabib-Gaethje) it’s only looking worse now.

          As long as all networks stop having shows on the same dates.. I don't know what was going on this last year but it seemed like when PBC had a show then DAZN had a show or ESPN. It drove me crazy

            When was the last PPV that cost $19. Even 30 years ago they weren't $19.

              Understand that but imo that is a price range that these cards should be priced at to get those that might not plan to buy it to change their mind.

                Unfortunately guys, we might as well get used it because it's the way of the world. It's the only outlet we have in order to see the kind of fights that we want to see. These fighters have been promised guarantees for taking on these risky opponents and the only way they can receive it is through pay per view.

                  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
                  Yeah Floyd needs to start hyping that up as a promoter. Tank needs to start trash talk ing also.


                  He could do it obviously.

                    $50 would be fine.

                      You get what you pay for in life. This is by far the best boxing lineup of the 3 major promotions, it’s not even close. I just hope all the fighters stay free of the Rona leading up to the fights
