    Canelo-Khan bombed in ppv buys, Canelo needs GGG as much as GGG needs Canelo if they both want huge ratings and buys.

    Wrong

    The PPV was a success

    600k PPVs and $7.4 million in ticket sales

    97k PPvs was a bust

    GG probably owes HBO money for that mess

    ya canelo needs handicaps to get wins over his opponents. not like ggg, ggg doesn't need "advantages" "catchweights" over his opponents.

    Wait. Didn't the same source you quote for the 97K also quote much less for Canelo/Kahn? Just want to be clear that you are using the same "universally recognized" numbers

    600K > 150K

    :deal
     
  7. Baby Bowe:deal

    Funny I was calling him this before he dumped the belt to DUCK GGG. ESB posted an article on front page - Lewis vs Bowe

    Told you his cowardice would stick with him for life!!

    LMAO

    Well sure it's more. I've never argued which is more.
    .it just seems if you guys are gonna quote 97K as the numberr, then to be fair, you need to use the same sources number for Canelo/Kahn, which I believe is 332K

    You guys accuse GGG fans of bias, yet your own bias shows when you throw around these PPV numbers. You use the lowest quoted numbers for GGG, but you ignore the Glaser numbers for Canelo/Kahn.

    The #1 guy wasn't the same size as GGG. Canelo is and is such a chicken **** its not even funny. One of the most despicable things I've seen from a "champ" since Floyd retired instead of honoring his rematch clause with oscar.

    been on this board a long time and i've been a boxing fan since i was a little kid so i can tell you that canelo is good for the sport of boxing. however, the fact remains that the lineal mw champ dragged a horribly china chinned jww up for his one and only defense and then dropped the title rather than take on his mandatory at the mw limit aside from whatever money issues are present (and i know there are legit money issues). i'm just saying as someone who has a bias towards the mw division...i've never really seen that before.
