    Based on what has been happening in PPV lately with anyone not named Canelo (even Canelo's numbers have come down quite a lot and he IS a household name in the US. His last fight with GGG only did 550K and everyone knows Canelo) I can see it bombing and doing 200-300K. Ryan only fights on an app so many don't know who he is and Tank has been on PPV fights averaging 75K for a few years now so even he is not on TV anymore available to be discovered by casual fans. Instagram followers does not relate to PPV buys. There are many bots on there and secondly, Ryan's fan base trends much younger so the high cost of PPV is somewhat of a hurdle.

    In addition, the reality of the market is there is stealing and Youtube and it makes it tough to sell alot of PPV and even besides that boxing ratings have been very low and trending down for years now EVEN ON FREE TV.

    So I see this doing anywhere from 200-450K.

    Because of Mexican fans, Ryan's social media clout, and the buildup, a shade under or over 1 million.....

    My guess is right around Spence's highest numbers (mid to late 300k).

    The winner, unless they stink up the fight, becomes a mini-superstar.

    Think it’ll do very well. Both guys are pretty well known amongst casuals and Garcia really knows how to sell a fight. I’m predicting an exciting build up.

    500k at least. Its top 3 one of the biggest fights to be made in boxing right now. The build up will be epic.

    Yeah i don't know for this one, will have to think about it & with all the bad news with Tank this will only further rise up the interest.

    If we use Canelo's PPV numbers as reference, he did 800k against Plant (on Showtime PPV), and around 500-550k against both Bivol and GGG 3 on DAZN PPV.

    Assuming the reports saying that Tank-Ryan will be a joint Showtime and DAZN PPV are correct, this bodes well for them, as opposed to being a DAZN-only PPV which doesn't have as many American viewers as Showtime.

    Based on this, Tank-Ryan almost certainly does at least 600k, and I'm going to go even further and say that it will do around the 800k that Canelo-Plant did.

    One thing for sure though is that Twink, for all the supporters he supposedly has can't sell a PPV for the life of him. Probably has a bunch of broke fans

    Yeah all made up stuff retweeted by Ellerbes/Espinozas ass kissers,

    it's why SHOWTIME don't officially leak them as they can be sued by their false projecting, so then they get their stooges to go out there & throw out those figures to perpetuate more lies to the public,

    So much for MR PPV.

    Depends on the promotion really how hard they go for it media tours promos etc.

    But I'd be shocked if it did less than 300-350

    Garcia has a huge social media presence among young girls and old gays. I predict >750.
