Damn.... Wilder's stock really gonna take a hit when those ppv numbers don't come in looking so hot. PBC was looking strong after HBO bowed out, but both DAZN and ESPN really applying pressure now.

Say what you will About him ...but there’s a reason why Arum has been near or on top of the sports for literally 5 decades

embarrasing

Arum got them in a bad spot now, they have to overpay if they don't want to lose Wilder, their biggest investment. But with this being a PPV (I guess) everybody gonna laugh at how few buys it did once the number are in so it's really a lose-lose to them. Also Wilder got used to pay a certain amount on his last fights so I guess no way back now.

deserves more money than fury got in his deal. His fights are worth the money unlike that awkward blob. But its whatever. Get paid kazakh thunder

they said hes getting 8 figures per fight but we dont know the amount...knowing how DAZN is throwing money around it could surpass fury's deal

What is Fury’s deal though?? Bob Arum already came out and said the figures that’s been out in the media(80m pounds) was bullshyt and he don’t know where they came from

Canelo said a few days back he's going for undisputed in September so if Golovkin wants to fight him in September he should take on Andrade.

2 scenarios I see both assuming Canelo beats Jacobs:

Golovkin fights Andrade in June, winner fights Canelo in September

Golovkin won't risk fighting Andrade in June, rather waits until May 2020 to get the rubber match

I think the latter one is more likely
