    You do realize why Jake and Nate got 600 bucks? It´s because under law, they had to pay them the minimum of 600USD. Otherwise their purses would have been 0.
    Nate and Robinson got paid according to PPV buys, meaning their draw power. So Triller took 0 risk with them.

    Seems like someone new comes along and throw money at fighters and then ends up running out. We saw HBO, Showtime, PBC , DAZN, now Triller. Problem is they throw money at mismatch fight just to screw the other promoter . If they make quality fights they can make money.

    So they didn’t walk away with $80m profit which is what I was making a point of. Read the exchange.
    My point was all th guys got paid big money and therefore Triller didn’t make mega profit from t of $80m on the card. That was the revenue.

    mall the fighters got paid big money

    You're being obtuse and using idiotic strawman arguments.

    It's an utterly pointless exercise even trying to have a rational debate with you.

    They could have it in Melbourne. Stadium's are open a 50% capacity. Even at 50% MCG holds 50,000 and Docklands holds 25,000. ........but you're probably right.

    Kambosis isn't even a name in Australia.

    So you made zero sense. It’s cool..

    your statement made very little sense and that’s fair play that you recognise it now. Glad you were educated kid

    Business is long term, not short term, taking loses early in the piece is normal, they investing for the future.

    I think they're going to put it on in the Philippines.

    It's going to be called "The Thrilla in Manila" promoted by Triller.

    Should be killa.

    Certainly shaping up to be another freak show card. I would agree that they have to have big freak show names in mind. I won't spend money on this fight most likely, but happy for the fighters that they are getting good paydays.
