    Arum must be making money with these cards, why else would he keep putting them on PPV. Someone is buying them

    True MJ maybe it's because he does'nt have to split money with any major network and does'nt have to pay the fighters a whole lot of money because they're not stars yet,so in the end he's making a pretty good profit from these minor ppv cards.

    If this is true, Arum is hurting Juanma's carreer. Economic situation is not good right now. And Juanma need to be seen in the US.

    Juanma could be a big star.

    Putting him on ppv right now in this fight isn't helping much.

    Not many people are gonna see this.

    There's 2 ppv cards and an HBo tripleheader all on Sat.

    A lot of fights but also a lot of competition.

    Too bad Arum didn't still have his exclusive deal with Versus.

    He could put this on there and it would be a great fit.

    But he'd opt for Tye Fields instead so it wouldn't matter anyhow.

    This is not a Bob Arum show, yes Lopez is promoted by him, but in Puerto Rico Lopez fights are promoted by PR Best Boxing just like Calderon and in one time Cotto too. Those latin ppv are from PR Best Boxing and is a local ppv, Yuo can see it but is made to ba ppc local ppv. there is no local channel that will spend to myuch money on those cards thats why is ppv becaseu local gate will not be enought to grant a hit. Tv only put those show like HBO do with their PPV fights air it the other week or two. But not the same date. Thats why this fight is ppv still a disgrace because they could chose a better oponent, but sadly almost everyone turn him down, maybe are little afarind of the monster they view on HBO a few monthas ago, maybe they accpet the fight when they see him in a few more fights, and see what this kid is capable.
