    You think?
    If they start aggressively advertising this and having them do some sports center verbal throwdowns it could sell a million, maybe.

    They just not doing anything, both of them ghosted the fans....could have advertised it during tank PPV.....what a failed opportunity

    That's my point. They both brought something to the table but clearly FLoyd brought more.


    Same here, It's obvious who was responsible for the majority of the PPV buys here(Garcia) but some people aren't willing to just accept that and move on.

    But the fact that a man who wears high heels, thongs, suspenders and lip stick has a resume 100,000 x better than Twink's and Ryan's only makes them look even worse. Granted Oscar's resume is amazing though

    It's not obvious because tank has had better live gate success than Ryan had. Of course both are draws and both will bring a crowd and do good ppv numbers. If it was so obvious then Ryan would've been the A side here that's what you fail to understand. Ryan has head lined cards before and his live gates haven't been as big as tank's those are facts. This was his first ppv if he had a ppv facing Fortuna or campbell he damn sure wouldn't get this many buys. They both had a part in doing good numbers not just one fighter.

    Crawford is past his prime and never really been that big of a draw except in Nebraska. Had they fought 3 years ago the fight would've done much better now not so much.

    LOL This is simple math and you're trying to bring liberal math into it.

    Garcia was/is a social media star with a following that tripled Tanks, it doesn't take a genius to figure out who's responsible for the majority of PPV buys. Just give credit where it's do and move on otherwise you're just going to look as silly as Olu.

    DAZN executives are now worried the problems with ordering the Garcia-Davis fight could impact the Canelo-Ryder PPV in a couple weeks. People who would've ordered may not now, given all the troubles with Garcia-Davis ordering. DAZN subscribers got a discount, compared to Showtime's costs. So a lot of people ordered at DAZN first. When that didn't work, they went to Showtime.

    I guys the total buys being posted are including all the multiple clicks from people now demanding refunds because the streams didn't work.

    Those social media followers sure didn't show up at his live fights to do more than Tank did in his.:deal: Wtf you talking about? You're just hating tank was A side for a reason and is the bigger draw.

    Really, you're going the "you're hating on Tank" route? That's weak. SMH

    Twink is clout chasing Ryan. Piggybacking off his fame and celebrity. Think about it. Ryan is 24 and hadn't fought anyone but his number of followers dwarfs dwarf Twink's.

    It ain't weak because that's what you're doing. If ryan was the bigger draw he would've been the A side and dictated terms to tank. Also garcias bigger social media followers didnt tranlate to more ticket sells than tank has had with a smaller social media platform. Your argument couldn't be more flawed.

    I'm basing my opinion on facts and logic, you just pulled the victim card.

    I'll give you one last try to redeem yourself. If Tank was averaging in the mid 200K ppv buys where in the hell did the supposed extra 1mill buys come from?
