    The context was PPV is more important in terms of revenue than the people in attendance. Nowhere did I say PPV is more important than boxing. Otherwise Floyd v Pac would be the greatest fight ever, when it was a stinkfest in reality.

    Its just another way for GGG haters to talk ****. The fact that a guy from khazakstan, a place 99% of Americans can't even point out on a map, is even making waves in US boxing is amazing especially since he fought a canadian that doesn't have a big fan base.

    Didn't cotto-malignaggi do 60k? The us is filled with millions of puerto ricans and italians..

    great night of boxing? what were you smoking, it was a scam. and I'm glad it did terrible buys, it means less people bought the PPV and got ****ed off and turned off by boxing more for shelling out cash for an even that was not worth PPV. it also doesn't encourage HBO to put on more ****ty PPVs.

    PPV is a measurement stick for future negotiations is like your resume when looking for a good level in a fight this low PPV won't help GGG.

    :lol::lol::lol::lol: damn MVC is a detective he shut that dude the hell up. And all the GGG fans were talking about how it would do at least 300k, or around the same as Floyd/Berto LOL!

    I watch fights because I like watching fights. GGG is one of the best fighters in the world.
    Just because you Floydbois need a father figure/love interest, doesn't mean that's why everyone else watches boxing :rofl
