Why do boxing writers & personalities care so much about Jay Z personally schilling for the fight through personal appearances and social media? Someone please make sense of this.

He's the lead promoter and he hasn't done anything to increase the viewership/number of buys in preparation for this PPV fight. With as many casual fans of Boxing there are, a Jay-Z co-sign would definitely help boost the buys....he's a promoter who hasn't lifted 1 finger to help promote this fight in the public's eye:wow:


Word is, RNS needs this PPV to crack 1 million buys in order for it to be a success for them, due to the large purse they gave Cotto:wow:

He could've and probably should've done a media tour for this fight. I'd even venture to say RNS wanted him to, but he couldn't be bothered. But why does it matter to the boxing media? It's weird and it comes off as them just alienating the newcomer.

And I was told they plan on making a 6 to 8 million dollar profit this weekend.

He's a promoter breh...since when has a promoter NOT actually physically been there during fight week or done any press/media/conferences/interviews promoting the fight. Especially for a PPV of this magnitude:ohhh:


I agree with them:wow:

Maybe, but Cotto is getting $15 million off top plus a percentage of the RNS PPV split. 6-8 million profit in the arena/tickets/merchandising doesn't sound like much at all when keeping that in mind:yeshrug:


Idk though:manny:
