To be fair, it took both to make this number...not just Canelo. Without GGG, Alvarez wouldn't have been able to pull off a million buys with anyone besides a Mayweather or PAC.
Gate was supposed to be 30 million. Anybody still think that GGG should have just taken Goldenboy's flat 10 million offer?
GGG (97K) is now a household name thanks to Big Red If the numbers are legit that is good for boxing after the Big Top Show a few weeks prior to this REAL match
It goes over. I said it before the fight and ill say it now this fight does 2m easy. wouldnt be surprised if it approaches 3m.
Yes, credit to you for that prediction. I knew it would be over 1M but didn't think it could get to 2M
I think both GGG and Canelo are very pleased with the results of his promoting. Which two boxers can sell 2 million and make 30 and 70 mil?
But wait... shouldn't Golovkin have agreed to a flat fee? I thought that was the conventional wisdom amongst all you Canelas?
How much did Canelo vs. Chavez and Smith do? How much did Golovkin vs. Lemieux and Jacobs? Canelo entirely drove the PPV. Great news, if true.
But, but, but Golovkin only fights bums. It has being proven many times that you need a good dancing partner to have big PPV numbers. Canelo, Pac or Mayweather could not make big numbers if your opponent is not someone the public is asking for. Golovkin got alot of crtisim here because he couldn't sell a PPV but he sure helped Canelo reach or exceed 2 million PPV. Without the both of them this would not be possible.
