    Canelo - Cotto 900,000
    Joshua - Whyte 400,000+
    GGG - Lemieux 150,000

    You can get a million with Pacquiao against the right opponent. It looks like the only person Cotto will fight before he retires is Canelo again. That won't get a million if the first one didn't. I disagree with the other posters on this topic that say GGG - Canelo won't get a million. GGG's PPV numbers will go up with more popular opponents plus the Apple commercials will also help his recognition with casuals. Golovkin - Canelo will break a million PPV's I am sure of that. With Bradley looking good lately Golovkin - Bradley with a good undercard might do it. Cotto -Bradley with a good undercard is reaching but who knows. Joshua - Whyte doing 400,000+ in England with no titles on the line is a great number. I could see Joshua being a PPV star if he is good enough to win one of the belts.

    Fury - Wilder would be a great fight. An undercard with a title or two on the line can get you 1,000,000 PPV's.

    I can't see Fury-Wilder coming anywhere close to 1,000,000.

    No it wouldn't. Neither have a big following, Wilder is unproven. Of course this would sell out a big venue in the UK, but it wouldn't gather any US interest at all. Nobody in the US knows who Wilder or Fury are.

    Mentally incapable losers like you are the reason why GGG will continue to fight hopeless bums and only call out smaller fighters.
