I also doubt it did 18000 ppv buys, we're all boxing fans obviously on this forum and i don't remember anyone on here, (except stifflers mum :yep) buying the fight. So who else would have bothered buying it ?
dont forget merchandice brought at the events, mundine sells his own brand of clothing at his promotions, boxa t shirts etc and they are not cheap but cost him next to nothing to purchase from china, i think around 2-3$ a T shirt and they sell for around $50. i dont think the woods fight got 18,000 PPV buys either, hardly anyone seen it and many rushed to youtube to watch highlights etc, one clip had around 100,000 hits, i think this shows the lack of PPV sales as there wasnt much intrest for this fight, thus the mainevent internet advertise campain to drum up more sales, they threw a bit into it paying Garth and it wasnt going to see much of a return. it should be also noted that no ones been able to hand pick local opponents and contuine to earn the money mundine has been earning, the public are somewhat at fault imo.
No denying he's made good coin, but all this **** about making 20 mil is well wide. Tax, stadiums, marketing, hangers on, and let's not forget Khoder. Khoder would have made more money out of mundane than mundine himself. Soon as the honeymoons over Khoder will drop Mandy like a piece of pork crackling....
Khoder will disappear once Mundine is finished. I dont doubt Khoder has made more than choc but Jnr is his meal ticket

It's changed all right Lead Right. For a start your avitar with Mundine standing over a decked opponent is out of date - these days it's Mundine who's admiring the stadium ceiling, not his opponent!
True, but he brought that upon himself. After that Solimon 2 fight he had two choices, he took the wrong one.
