    Tank is the draw people come out to see him. He's actually one of the biggest draws in boxing.

    But Rolly's talk elevated the fight to a great extent

    I'm always very skeptical of PPV numbers but somehow that fight filled Barclay's and I'm sure tickets weren't cheap so who knows?

    You have to give the young buck credit for all that trash talk.
    Yes Tank is a draw on his own but Rolly sold this fight to the casual boxing fans with his over the top trashing of Tank.

    Great numbers for this PPV especially knowing folks just tossed out money weeks ago for a Canelo PPV

    He packed the house in ATL too so Tank is on a roll—Rolley—Roll

    I'm calling BS.

    Tank only did like 100k buys in his last fight. Are we to believe that the relatively unknown Rolly brought in at least 250k ppvs?

    I had so many non hardcore boxing friends asking me more questions about this fight than the dang Canelo fight. Rolly built a brand of his own with the casual

    No one knows who the hell Bivol is. Rolly is a star.

    He talks like he is STAR and sometimes that creates a star. I was floored more folks ask me about this fight compared to Canelo.
