Spence criticizes Arum favoring Loma over Crawford and Fury getting $100 million in comparison

[TheNig]

He's starting to talk a little too much.

boy stop..

Bob according to many Boxing pundits might have single handedly destroyed the PPV. business model as it has existed here in America..

Due to this recent. Khan Crawford fiasco

He predicted 1 million buys.. Yet it took in less than 150k which less then half of what Spence and Garcia Brought in.....

Arum ain't sh1t

Arum predicts Crawford-Khan does 1 million+ PPV buys

That's misleading, Spence and Garcia attracted a large audience, due largely, to the fact that it captured the Latino/American market as well as the American market.

I'm not an Arum fan, but you can't compare the two considering ones a fight containing a regional, Nebraskan champion and a non (white) American & the other is a Texan champion vs a Californian latino/american champion.

Worlds apart as far as ppv stakes.

Dude it was Arum with his senile Azz saying they would do better PPV numbers than Spence Garcia. ..

He claimed 1 million....

Which was stupid on his part...

And since then ARUM has been quiet....

Well that's seriously wishful thinking on Arums part, no way that was ever going to get big PPV in America.

it didn't help that people don't care for Amir Khan

Exactly why nobody took Arum serious. Fight was destined to flop from jump no matter what his old ass said.
If it wasn't for the good undercard they put on it, the ppv buys would have prolly been like 80k

I don't think you know the difference between LA Mexican-Americans and Tejanos (south Texas Mexican-Americans).

you make zero sense

first off, mikey is mexican not latino, if you don't understand there is a difference you don't know shyt about this country let alone boxing when mexicans and latinos have the biggest rivalry especially between mexican and puerto rican fighters

and if what you said were true mikey could've fought another mexican or latino fighter instead of spence, he needed spence as well

spence already did well at the cowboy stadiun, spence already was on tv with millions of viewers which mikey has never done

crawford is a nobody, spence is damn mainstream, he was on a huge media tour after beating mikey, crawford has been nowhere at the khan fight

also, its the fact spence pulled off a big fight, he pulled it off, its getting it done and not getting it done at the end of day, crawford ain't getting it done

spence got another big fight with porter coming up, crawford has nothing lined up he only making it worst the longer bob arum plays these games

That's true, I fukked that up, i typed quickly without checking what i'd written, when in fact i should have said Californian Mexicans, Mexican/Americans, Tejanos etc and nowhere near latino. I'll cop that.

My point is still valid though, and the discussion at hand which is worth considering here is that the boxing viewership is going to romp it home when there's a Mexican or Mexican American with a profile, comparatively, rather than an English/Pakistani at the American gate (which is the discussion.) That's all.

That Spence V Porter fight only just got announced, however Porter is as hot as dog food atm, scraped through that fight with Ugas due to home ground advantage and Cuban fighters lack for hunt/kill (they prefer And1 ball if you catch my drift, Gamboa aside.)

I'm not sure what you're trying to read into this, i'm not in the Arum camp, if anything i'm vehemently opposed to it, i merely highlighted that the American gate is going to prosper with a Mexican American vs a English/Pakistani.

Texas footing as a boxing mecca/viewership stronghold is obviously apparent too.

Spence sounds dumb. Arum is lining Crawford up for PPVs and guarantees despite barely having any WW
Spence side has all the WW and he fighting lightweights moving up
Ppl asking who Crawford going fight next, who the fukk Spence going fight next?
His promoter hasn't been able to make any fight he wanted in over 2 YEARS (spence didn't even want to garcia fight initially)
Spence (and Crawford) need to start publicly demanding to fight each other. The money is there and the promoters will work it out like they eventually always do

He’s fighting options are slim and look what bob is still able to do.

If the khan and brook fight don’t happen Crawford could fight brook overseas.

Brook is DONE
