    Lol.

    This fight is being promoted by a Las Vegas based promoter, featuring a Philipino fighter and is taking place in CHINA. Why in the hell would the NYC media give a ****?

    If this fight had that much potential, it wouldn't be taking place in China.

    Because the challanger to Manny Pacquiao is an undefeated champion white boy with a unique story from NY, thats why. Dude has already been on ESPN shows, on the unforgettables on CBS and even Fox business news had him on as a guest...and all in the last month since the fight. He has been in every NY newspaper this last week and the fight hasnt even been officially signed yet.

    2 things.

    1. Pac's stock was at an all-time low going into the Rios fight. that produced 350-400k.

    2. Pac Bradley did around 750k buys, and that was Bradleys third time on PPV.

    This fight, Pac's stock is decent, two victories. Algieri is pretty much a no name. Bradley is known in the boxing community and amongst casuals.

    If a revenge fight, against the top 3 P4P guy, who's been on PPV 2 times prior, where the casuals know you were robbed, and the hardcores want to see if you've actually bounced back, only did 750k buys. Then this fight maxes out at 500k. Im thinking somewhere around 425k. Maxing at 500k.

    This fight doesn't do well at the box office, period. Unless all of his fans band together and agree to watch it at their own houses.

    Few enjoyed Canelo-Lara; most didn't.

    Similar fight here.

    750K minimum...call me crazy but I say 750 with an outside chance at 1 million buys. Why do you think they made this fight? Because he earned it with his one espn fight and one HBO fight? Hell no! Its because they KNEW its sellable. Its the storyline. But the crazy part of the whole thing is that what they probably don't realize is that this kid has a shot. It is an interesting storyline
