Golovkin/Lemieux PPV Price

Yeah MVC, what this guy said!!!

 

Going back to the old days!!! Count me in as a buyer!

 

It'll be $60 in HD, similar to Canelo/Lara and Canelo/Angulo. Should do at least 200k buys, making a $6M overall profit for the promotion.

If you put Gonzalez/Viloria on the undercard, and Ortiz/Stiverne, this is like a World Championship Boxing card on steroids. Can't miss all around.

I know some around here like defense, and will pay the $75 for Mayweather/Berto. I'll probably buy it at a movie theater just for some comic relief.

Wonder if Paulie will be back commentating. Last time he lost he wasn't able to commentate for a few weeks after recovering from the whipping he received from Broner's daddy.

They'll probably pull in 500k buys, and since the Alvarez and Pacquiao fights were so successful Showtime can probably withstand the loss.

 

GGG/Lemieux is 20-1. May/Berto is 50-1. At least Lemieux has a puncher's chance. I'm not sure how a rational being could describe this fight the way you did in your censored description.

 

Good man, save your money for child support.

 

I'll be making the trip from Montreal with my son to see this fight live.

 

If you knew there was no way else the money the fighters wanted to fight each other could be generated, and the fighters did not end up fighting each other because there was no such thing as ppv would you still feel the same? Because that's probably what happened, ppv is a way to generate more money than hbo or showtime is willing to give without having to beg any network who really doesn't want to take a chance on boxing and probably will either not do it, or not put up the money it's worth either. PPV circumvents all that, put it on ppv, put a price you think it's worth, and let the people decide.

 

So glad, I saw someone saying it would be $75. I was not paying that. This is the top end of what I expected/was willing to pay for, they barely hit their mark with me, but they hit it.

 

It's nice having another PPV fighter around, if anyone deserved it it's Golovkin.

 

It it a much better event than the Mayweather's one... for less money... go figure.

 

Unfortunately, I have to agree with Rik today.

In the current market, without PPV.... it would be difficult if not impossible to get two dangerous guys with something to lose to face each other.

In the context of this current fight, theres just no way anyone with either a fanbase or a title faces GGG unless theres at least a couple million on the table. Even if HBO didnt want to play ball, SHO or just Canadian TV and ticket sales could have given Lemieux a couple-few hundred thousand a pop to KO random IBF ranked nobodies in Montreal.

 

Bet u won't.but ur gon pay you 75$ to watch mayweather against Berto's corpse lol
