    That was to be expected so it seems he & Tank are neck & neck when it comes to fighting no namers in PPV not that shocking really.

    everyone knows you gotta have a dance partner to crack 500k PPV

    For most casuals it was a watch-the-highlights-in-the-morning type of fight and might have been dismissed as Canelo post-injury warm up. Hardcores knew that Ryder is a different breed, and that he repeteadly went against the odds to get that shot.

    Yeah the DAZN feed was messed up. I think in order for them to send you a free code for the Canelo fight, you had to fill out a form with POP. proof of purchase.

    The difference is in the double-standard. 200k+ were considered "PPV star" numbers for Tank but disappointing numbers for Canelo.

    Also, there's no doubt that mud-slinging helps sell a fight and Canelo's last 3 opponents have refused to play that game.

    Nice Nuance , but that was Elllerbe just using his mouth piece (disgusting):ohno

    Canelo vs Berlanga will definitely crack the 500k mark.
    But so will Tank vs Pitbull 2
    Neck & neck says I.

    Agree on Canelo/Berlanga numbers but I hope Canelo doesn't go that route.
    I would be surprised if Tank/Pitbull2 did over 350k.

    You could be right on tank vs Pitbull 2
    As for Canelo vs berlanga freshly acquired by matchroom

    is being discussed after the impass by bivol & stubbornness by Canelo
    Both refusing to budge… Canelo wants 175lbs
    Bivol wants 168lbs - so talks have died down

    enter Edward Berlanga stage left.

    Pitbull doesn't have a big fan base. & he'll get blasted in the rematch in most ppls opinion. At least I think

    Oh crap, seems like this fight is closer to becoming reality than I thought. I'm not opposed to it but simply feel that at this point a win over Berlanga does nothing for Canelo's legacy.

    It should be Bivol, Benavidez, Charlo.

    Yeah the only selling point to this fight would be that Pitbull gave a good account of himself.

    What tech companies are going belly up?

    They're laying people off because they can, and because it means big profits. Most tech companies are doing fine.
