Sad to say but the fight most likely BOMBED on PPV (Under 100K buys)

    The fight itself wasn't any way exciting so if it does flop it doesn't look good for Crawford's next outing unless it's against a big name.

    Only way to turn him into a ppv star is if he fought and beat up Pac

    Things I don't give a **** about #176: PPV numbers. Be they Crawford's, GGG's or anyone else's.

    I ended up buying it but it probably will bomb. Dumb move to put this fight on ppv.

    The purse for the entire card was around 2m, right?
    So at 60$ that would mean they need around 35000 buys to break even. Then they have the gate, sponsors, foreign rights, merc, replay...

    It all comes down to what kind of deal they have with the cable provider. How much will they have to cough up to them? If it´s 50% then they will have to sell a lot more than just 35000.

    Anything around 100k will be a success.

    I'd expect terrible numbers, but the fight was either going to happen on PPV or not at all. I'm glad it happened.

    Whatever hombre.

    I'm still utterly bemused at you describing me wanting to see Wilder take on a legit threat as 'sick'.
