Comments Thread For: Errol Spence-Danny Garcia Generates $2,615,075 Live Gate From 14,508 Tickets Sold

[#1PaperChamp]

The commission received these reports on December 14, try again.

The headline remains the same:

Spence is ducking Crawford

[NC Uppercut]

I just cannot understand why they don't release PPV numbers. That is odd.
But also tells its own story

[Nomadic]

I dont get any of this idea at all, I dont understand why fans eliminate the best fights by saying one doesnt deserve the fight it makes no sense to me, its like the few idiots that say Spence and Crawford are not worthy of Pac yet all these B graders that fight them are worthy,

I want the best fighters to fight each other, I dont care one iota about worthy or draw I just want to see the best fight the best.

I totally agree. I don't care who makes the most money, drive the fastest car, or have the most fans.

The best fights the best, period!

250k was not a projection, it was the official number, which was said to be in EXCESS of 250k.

Stop making up garbage biased numbers.

225k exists only in your own ****** little head.

It was a reported number and by one outlet. It's not the official number since those figures were never released. Neither one of us make any money off of the PPV regardless of the final figure, so nothing gained by claiming it to be more or less. Just explaining to you why different outlets report different figures.

Lovely, though, that I've now been accused of bias both towards (from this report) and (according to you) against the same fighter.

No wonder they wanna make Spence vs Canelo would be HUGE $$$

Good for Spence. He doesn't do too bad in this awful era of American Boxing. However monetary don't really matter when it comes to Crawford, we can argue splits and A side B side but at the end of the day Errol is scared of Bud and doesn't want to fight him.

The best is always a little tongue in cheek but you must arrive at some sort of conclusion based on a combination of opponents ratings and the eye test, if a guy is an active undefeated WT holder not had any forced major surgery or long forced layoffs, then he is worthy of any other title holder in his division in my view, I dont understand when fans say this type of fighter is not worthy, we may as well have no titles and just pull names out of a hat.

Fair enough.

You didn't see the video of them in the same room talking smack? Whatever else anyone wants to say about this fight happening, fear from Spence is obviously not a part of it. The body language in the video makes that clear ...

PS - I understand a lot of fans throw the "fear" word out there as if that is gonna compel a fighter to do what they want them to do (manipulation basically). So yeah, I understand the rhetoric ...

I did see the vid where they smack talked, well Crawford smack talked, Spence just gave reasons why this fight shouldn't be any time soon. He may of well just of said outright that he is scared.

It's a sign pf confidence and power when you don't bother trying to go word for word with nonsense. Spence didn't bother with talking a lot of noise. But he was walking, lounging, and relaxing like he was in his own kitchen, distracted looking for food. Bud was barking kinda non-stop and nervous-like. Body language.

Anyway, both are excellent. I'm not sure who wins, but I'll be betting on Spence. I think he beats TC down like all the rest ... with relentlessness. He won't be denied.
