    You keep bringing up casuals. Trying to tie Garcia's popularity to that of his promoter. You don't even know how to use proper English FFS, or evidently what your words actually mean. Please go to college, take a course on communication. You seriously need that you mumble mouth illiterate...

    No Dren, I was explaining that being Garcias promoter isn't going to sell this more. And BTW, if only SOME casuals know who Oscar is, how does that help then to begin with??? Casuals buy tickets for mostly big name fights. Got that??? Neither Garcia nor Ryan are big names in boxing. They are decently known, but for a PPV?? Hell no.

    And like I asked, what were Ryan's last PPV #'s. Got that?

    I mentioned non title fights that were successful on PPV and you bring up that those guys were more popular. Which to the casual just isnt true. Then i bring up some know De La Hoya, then you get your butt tickled and start ranting about PPV buys and all this mumbo jumbo. Will the casuals help the PPV buy figure if it does happen to be on PPV? Do birds fly in the sky?

    :lol: those guys were more popular DUE to having more casual fans, you don't know that? Do you even know WTF you are talking about here w/ causals???

    those non-title fights involved guys who could sell consistently and high numbers. The mere fact that this needs to be explained easily tells me you were not watching boxing all that long ago. You're just a casual who decided to stick around on a boxing board of mostly die-hards. Go find a new hobby child....

    That’s my point exactly in these times and that 250K/300K at todays pricing point makes a lot of money hence the likes of Gervonta Davi’s and Erroll Spence Jr have become multimillionaires.

    They generate more than Haney at the box office by far. That is just a fact.

    They've become millionaire due to being over paid to fight scrubs for the most part. A 30yo with ESjr's resume at his age would be laughed at 15 years ago.

    How is tank a bona-fide champ when Haney holds every belt?

    Both Garcia’s, Kell Brook as champion ,Porter as champion and Ugas as champion is nothing to sniff at by any means.

    You forget. He beat the champions at 130. Haney will get his shot at Tank.

    30 years old...those are the best. That's really not good. It disappoints me greatly how TC and Spence floundered most of their primes w/ low level fighters.

    He wouldn't face Loma, he wasn't ready to face the champ at 130.

    I believe with Tanks trinket he's actually the mandatory challenger for Haney, and entitle to 25% of the purse.

    Is he gonna accept that split for a shot at greatness? I doubt it. He's held a title for 7 years now and not stepped up once.

    That’s unfair. EJ has fought the best available to him and is getting ready for Crawford. Both guys want it. Thurman talks a good game but he does not want it from either.

    I leave in the real world and you and I both know Tank will get the lions share of the purse and Haney will be grateful for his share as it’s a lot than he can ever earn elsewhere.
