What if all the stuff about it not even reaching break even is just a massive tax fiddle. Arum playing 3D chess with US treasury...
good luck with that irs don t like to be played hope super bowl push all the media circus the controversy draw breaking barely even ummm And some on here are making it out to be a huge success
Bizarrely, it's both a huge success and a bit of a damp squib all in one! In the black corner we have a record gate for a hw fight, up to 850k PPV, the most popular PPV since Mayw v mcgregor and not least a fantastic fight itself which captured attention seemingly worldwide. Plus a strong reported showing for bt sport in the uk. In the red (ink) corner there's the very high break even figure that Arum and others suggesting they've barely broken even. That's largely due to the massive guarantees each fighter negotiated, which appear to be a big overpayment given what the first fight delivered. From outside, they've overestimated their capacity to convert social media interest into 80 dollar buys. There's an argument for changing this pricing model completely and going for far larger numbers paying a much smaller fee. Could be one of those occasions when dropping your price increases your revenue.
As i said arum needs Joshua fight to make a profit First time i have ever seen bob shell out and not make a dime Well done fury Had the bob father over
