    In fairness GGG has fought on Channel 5 in front of 750k people- much more than the average Sky card.

    With the right undercard this could do 300k buys.

    I think the fight will tap into the 'casual' market and should do good PPV numbers.

    All your for a bargain price of £16.99.

    I think the potential Kell Brook v Jessie Vargas PPV would be a much more difficult sell to the masses, despite it being a unification clash.

    GGG is unknown to non-boxing addicts.

    Guess the real question is what numbers would be deemed a flop?

    Break even is around 100k for the average card. With such a low target as that you can see why they do it so often now.

    Doesn't matter. SSN showing highlight reel after highlight reel of knock outs means he will he marketed as vicious unbeaten puncher up against the young brash arrogant Eubank. It's money!!

    If the Sky hype machine does it's job, there no reason why this can't do similar numbers to Joshua v Whyte
