    Manny Pacman vs Keef Runtime
    DSG vs Mikey
    Spence vs Porter

    surely americans wont fork out for all three of these? should have put DSG vs Mikey as co main for Spence Porter, now that people would pay for

    I’m not buying any of them. Only welterweight fight I would pay PPV money for at the moment is Spence vs Crawford.

    And why is that? Do you not think they'll be competitive? I mean, Spence couldn't even stop a Featherweight the last time out.

    Only one Ill be paying for is Pac Thurman.

    The other ones just aren’t worth PPV money. I’ll stick to DAZN and ESPN +.

    Spence vs Porter wasn't planned as a PPV initially but Spence had a tantrum :smile: and was able to persuade them.
    I expect this fight to fail miserably in terms of PPV numbers.

    Spence-Porter and Danny-Mikey are not PPV caliber fights.

    Spence should have stopped a blown up lightweight and Mikey stunk up the joint so bad people have zero interest in seeing him again, never mind paying to see him. Porter also stinks up most of his fight.

    Glad they brought back "free" boxing. By the time you include taxes & fees, that's almost three years worth of DAZN.

    Showtime have to go PPV. Ask youself how they can pay PBC fighters purse on a $60M budget - lol no chance. Al Haymon really screwed them big time. There in a hole that they can't dig themselves out of.
