i can go off in a rant about this...as ive done..but lets just say there are only 2 fighters on that side i understand the ppv route because they are draws: pacquiao and broner..the rest depends on who they are facing

I would definitely add Spence to the list. He has a certain “it” factor and star quality about him that was evident way before he got to the championship level. He has a great opportunity to take it to the next level.

Jarrell Miller Helping Dinu Prepare To Take Down Daniel Dubois

BOGDAN DINU has brought in the world’s most controversial boxer Jarrell Miller to help cause the downfall of Daniel Dubois.

The Romanian powerhouse challenges Dubois (15-1, 14 KOs) for the vacant WBA interim Heavyweight title at Telford International Centre on Saturday June 5, live on BT Sport.

Miller is currently banned from boxing after a string of failed drug tests, but has been flown from the United States to Bucharest by Dinu (20-2, 16 KOs) for sparring ahead of the big Dubois showdown.

Dinu who will be risking his number two ranking for the WBA world title held by Anthony Joshua when he meets Dubois was beaten by Miller in 2018.

“Jarrell has a great style and I needed him for this fight,” said 34-year-old Dinu

“The preparation has been one of the best I have had. It has been a great training camp with good sparring, good coaches and I’m healthy.

“It has been good having Jarrell Miller in camp. He puts good pressure on, is heavy handed and is a strong guy. That is what I need for big fights like this.

“He is a nice guy, a funny guy and we train together. After every spar he gives me advice on what he believes will work in the fight

“I think it is a big difference between Dubois and Jarrell. Jarrell has power, skills, experience.”

Dubois is returning after suffering an injury loss against Joe Joyce last November and still holds a healthy world ranking with WBA and WBO.

The Londoner will be hoping that 6ft 5in Dinu goes the same way as his previous Romanian opponent, Razvan Cojanu who he toppled inside two rounds in March 2019.

Dinu told the Unibet Lowdown: “Cojanu never had a good strategy against Daniel. I will have a better one. I will get revenge for my old amateur team-mate.”

What evidence is there that either dude generates interest?
We not talking about Mayweather here. Crawford has had more PPVs and make more than Loma so you reaching with the prioritizing shyt
Honestly I don't know why Shawn Porter is not bigger than he is, but naan nikka on here is talking about why PBC couldn't build a dude like him into a star :jbhmm:
Again, this boils down to ppl being mad TR isn't willing to pay more than what PBC was even paying Porter for PPV bouts, make it make sense. Apparently PBC realized it had to be a cap on what he got

bruh not everyone is going to be a star or can be a star. There aint nothing special about Porter that would make him a star. He’s lost every step up fight in his career. He’s right where he should be popularity wise imo

nah way too many examples of ppl who ain't nothing special who still got fan bases and got built up :unimpressed:
shyt even Danny Garcia had his lil era of selling out Barclays
anyway. long as people concede that Porter brings nothing to the table far as generating sales :ufdup:
combined with the fact Bud already be flopping. it's going be a cap on the money available for that
moving on
