    What? :lol:
    That is wild!

    I wonder just how does this make Arum feel. He won´t be able to do his own thing with ESPN, but then again, he has an easier time meeting Lopez´s ridiculous demands.

    Thats pretty insane. That company must have a trilly in the bank to be splashing that much cash.

    They made an absolute killing with the Tyson-Jones exhibition.

    Arum shouldn't be upset at all here. They get a nice cut from Lopez's purse and they will get Lopez back soon enough.

    Basically this saves top rank most of the costs of the event while they still get their percentage and triller assumes the risk. its great business for arum

    The Tyson-Jones fight made them around $80m.

    If they're smart they won't over-leverage and they'll build a smart and sustainable business model.

    Bob Arum probably wants do the Joshua vs Fury fights and retire. He doesn't want to deal with stuff like this anymore.

    Floyd Mayweather made out here as well since he has a percentage of Triller. Expect to see some TMT fighters not named Gervonta Davis on the undercard

    Outbidded the next highest bidder by £2.5m...that's a massive fail on them.. I'm sorry but Triller are marketing rejects/rtards

    They lost over half of that putting the event on. Plus this is one way to eat into that profit margin. As much as Teo is great this fight does not make them the money back

    Not sure how fight makes money other then i guess as main support to a big tyson fight as has been suggested.
    Was hoping it would be on a big outdoor show in australia but now seems unlikely

    Told you J-Paul is revolutionizing the game and that he's going shake things up like we've never seen before. Triller will make their money back tenfold if they stick him on the card too and he'll walk away with another Floyd type payday too even though he's still only a baby in the game.

    Triller throwing around money and making DAZN look like pussies in comparison, love it. We have a real disruptive force in the market!
