Strangely I'm not sure he'd sell that well in the UK right now. He's obviously known, but doesn't speak great English and isn't in a particularly 'sexy' division for casual fans.
Him vs BJS drove apparently 200,000 subs I think they said. Whether you believe that or not. GGG would sell, but for as much as Bivol is thr better fight I doubt it would
That's interesting. Yeah, agreed on GGG - I think others in the division are a tough sell especially if no UK fighter involved.
If I was a paying customer and I got told to fork out £20 to watch Canello at 4am I think I would be cancelling mu £8 a month. It will be interesting how big the backlash will be.
Canelo has replied to Mike Coppinger who reported this basically telling him to stop making sources up. This content is protected
He certainly on a downward spiral He's already turning bitter, keeps putting the Khan Brook fight down, even though he bid more than anyone else for it. Also is claiming he won't watch the fight which is a definite lie He's being frozen much more often than he's used to and he's spitting his dummy out
AJ would be a fool not to stay with Sky. The whole platform / exposure, everything with them is/has been great for him. In terms of Canelo he won’t be PPV UK. DAZN is a global business. It should be generating enough subs world wide to cover him. Reportedly around 10 million worldwide.
Both will be non PPV in UK. They are still working on numbers to potentially make bivol included in US but GGG a PPV in US. DAZN only plan on making fights PPV they physically cannot make without it. Whyte vs Fury for instance.
AJ is still with Hearn regardless of the platform and Hearn has a tv deal with DAZN. He literally loses nothing. canelo has a preference to work with Hearn going forward but knows it depends where the fights are. He will work with PBC and Matchroomngping forward. Essentially he will likely take both deals, one this year the other next year.
Earn will have suddenly turned Matchroom FC into more Leyton Orient FC than Liverpool FC. The problem with regularly scamming the public is that one day it becomes obvious.
