Lord have mercy... 1. Prices differ. 2. These are domestic fights. 3. Golovkin is a bigger star in the US, Joshua is a bigger star in the UK. I'm surprised Joshua was headlining a PPV already, he hasn't done anything. I didn't think Golovkin's should've been PPV either. I like both fighters though, can't wait for Golovkin to find a worthy opponent. And I think Joshua can beat both Fury and Wilder. Two awesome fighters, regardless who sold more.
If the HBO hype machine had given AJ the hard sell to the public like they did for GGG he'd be tripling 97k at the very least. More fan friendly fighter and a superb role model, gets the ladies onboard too. Joshua will be a huge star in America.
It's all about nationality. If Golovkin was british he would have been a PPV star a long time ago. Actually I take that back. Had he been british he would have had a glass jaw and been knocked out several times already.
Firstly, Lewis didn't have the best set whiskers. Not pure glass, but certainly not a great chin. And Calzaghe was knocked down by chronic feather fist Hopkins and shot to pieces Roy Jones. Secondly, what do those names all have in common? Neither of them are enitirely british, they all have bloodlines belonging to other nationalites, either directly from their parents or grandparents. Had the mentioned boxers been entirely british, their jaws would have been entirely glass aswell. That's just a fact. And the reason for that is that the vikings back in the day took all the good looking women with good genes and killed all the tough men who tried to fight back. The genetic pool of England still hasn't recovered from that brutal set back and to this day the defining characteristics of brits are bad teeth, glass chins and poor looks.
You're too british , too dumb and have no clue what you talking about. Joshua is a flat footed stiff , that's all , btw GGG sold 150k , get beck to me when any brit with non-american opponent does that , ok?
I wonder if Lee beats Saunders this weekend and Jacobs beats Eubank jr, the rematch between those 2 guys will be PPV? :think I actually expect it does, and it would have a good number of buys to boot.
Ironic that the only good boxer Denmark ever produced is half English atsch No wonder you have a massive inferiority complex
Brits are a gullible bunch so it wouldn't surprise me. GGG-Lemeiux wasn't PPV worthy and I think most people who know Boxing realized that and didn't buy it.
