    If these figures are correct, then it represents the highest PPV buys since a certain Floyd Mayweather and confirms Tank is the new face of boxing:

    ryan garcia made sure every one of his instagram and tik tok followers bought the tickets....every casual came to see garcia...all those celebrities and influencers were rooting for garcia...garcia is a master at sales... tank has garcia to thank for getting his biggest purse and highest ppv sale of his entire career... after these tank will be remembered as the guy who punched the boxing influencer and then proceed to ignore him because he has neither the charisma, nor the face, nor the intelligence to sell himself to the big leagues like ryan garcia... if ryan garcia improves his boxing fundamentals, he will be the next great boxing star, surpassing floyd...

    It was the biggest fight in boxing since Fury vs Wilder 3. We don't have good match ups as frequently. Of course people bought it.

    The face of boxing is someone that casual boxing fans know. In America, there is no one like that unless you want to count Jake Paul. I don't know who it would be in Europe but I would think a lot of casuals know Tyson Fury. In Asia, I could not tell you how popular and known Naoya Inoue is outside of Japan.

    All that's due to Ryan Garcia and his legion of teeny bopper TikTok fangirls. Ryan even in losing, is still the face of boxing.:deal: Ryan Garcia pulled in over 1.2 million buys, all on his own.

    If you need the proof, here's Tank PPV buys sans the drawing power of Ryan Garcia. The contrast is ****ing jarring.:eek:

    Tank vs. Santa Cruz 200,000
    Tank vs. Barrios 210,000
    Tank vs. Pitbull Cruz 150,000
    Tank vs. Romero 250,000
    Tank vs. Hector Garcia 210,000

    This fight was massive for casuals. Not surprised it did huge numbers.

    Oh dear still salty and bitter 4 days later. Of course Garcia contributed to it but it takes 2 to Tango that’s for sure. Garcia fans are deserting him for Tank after he got outclassed.

    To be honest I don't think Tank will ever be as popular as Floyd.

    So Ryan disappointed about 1.2 million of his paying casuals. They'll probably never buy another of his fights again. Ok, some single, good job having females might.

    Because of all of the theft there is no way the fight did that much. Canelo's last PPV dd 550K vs GGG and that would be 3 times more that for guys who are way less known then Canelo

    Tank needs mexicans to do any kind of numbers and we all know that.
