Would be nice if it did that much.
My sensible reasoning on why I am firmly confident the Charlos did around 300k-350k

If it does 300k I’d be impressed. I wanted to order it but the Laker game was on. So I streamed it but felt guilty watching it for free.Comment

This is what we really want.
Take your million rate this controversial fight so I can ********** to flame wars threads back and give us the damn footage or come around and fess up that you were lying.Comment

LMFAO green k sent for that one buddy I literally laughed out loudComment

I say 75-100k and that’s good being that they are relatively unknown outside of the boxing world. I think it’s a good start. They are some of my favorite fighters and I hope that they grown from here. All they need is marketing and you will see a huge difference in the number of their next ppv.Comment

Can't nobody convince me otherwise neither.

They have a combined 100k followers on twitter. 50k each.
Crawford, who has 185k followers, can't draw ***** to flies for his PPV's. He sold 50k vs Postol, and 150k vs Amir Khan.
In fact, Bob Arum said has said he actually LOSSES money on Crawford PPV's.
Terence Crawford and Amir Khan are much bigger names and have a larger following than the Charlo's and anyone on that card put together. Their PPV fight sold 150k.
You are saying this Charlo PPV sold 300-350k. Double what other fighters with bigger following than them did.
The Charlo's are about as unknown as you can get. They have 50,000 twitter followers each. They generate zero buzz on google. Nobody talks about them outside of boxingscene.com.
Am I a Charlo hater? No, just saying they need to get their resume up. The kings of PPV of yesterday (Mayweather/Pacquiao) fight top rated fighters, dangerous fighters, consistently, before they become big PPV stars and demand you pay $75-$100 to watch them. The Charlos haven't done that. Gervonta Davis hasn't done that. Promoters don't do this anymore. Mainly because fighters want too much money and the way only to try to pay them this money is with PPV money. They want PPV money but they do PPV numbers. Nobody wants to put in the work anymore.
Floyd Mayweather Jr got on his first PPV headline vs Arturo Gatti, 10 years into his career and 3 weight classes in. With Lineal and Ring titles to his name and a slew of top 1-10 wins, top 10 P4P recognition, and having been ranked as the best at 130 and 135 prior to climbing to 140 to dethrone The Ring's #1 ranked and WBC champion there.
Now fighters want their very first step up fight to be a big PPV fight where they make millions of dollars. Many boxing fans don't like Mayweather but he hustled his way to the top with top wins and accomplishments before he was demanding PPV money.
Is it really a surprise that Bob lost money on that fight?Comment
