Its not hatred breh... How do you see any fight with ggg doing a million buys when he can barely muster up 97k-150k buys in a unification bout marketed as Hagler and Hearns2??.. He has yet to prove he's a ppv draw in the states...

Its nowhere close to situation like cotto/canelo where both guys are guatanteed to bring in good ppv numbers..

There is no guarantee with ggg..

Yeah because HBO really built up and promoted that GGG ppv.

Ya'll keep looking at individual shyt, the match up itself is what's gonna sell. The casuals that will buy Canelo/GGG won't give a fukk about the 100k ppv that ya'll keep bringing up.

GGG gets good tv ratings and fills up arenas. Canelo ain't fighting nobody that does that shyt. BJS can barely get a fight with his own fukking shadow, but he's gonna be the guy that makes Canelo do 500k in ppvs

The reason I say it's hatred is because getting some of you nikkas to be objective or say something good about GGG is like pulling teeth.

HBO not building ggg up tobe a ppv star is not Canelo problem.. My thing is this sense of entitlement that some of these fighters have that aint done shiat, but think they "deserve" shyt.. Flops on ppv but wants to turn his nose down a guaranteed $10 million split becasue he wants a Pacquiao split

Like I said.. Canelo can rematch Cotto and probably do at least 500k.. and cant nobody really doubt it since the last fight did 900k..

Yall wanna give ggg's ppv drawing power the benefit of the doubt based on selling out the garden yet ignoring that he simultaneously flopped on ppv

Anybody that isn't bias will agree that HBO dropped the ball in building Lemieux as a ppv opponent for GGG debut.

Cotto vs Canelo 2 is a horrible fight and Canelo will look real bad for taking it. Especially if Cotto's not coming off some good type of win (like Bradley or better) That shyt will struggle to make 500k
if that.

Nobody wants to see 2 nikkas afraid of GGG fight each other again.

Especially if they not giving us some type of Gatti/Ward level of entertainment.

1.can u go in depth on that?

2.also u can agree that ggg is promoted a lot by hbo tho. I mean come on they cant go 10 secs in a fight without saying something bout ggg. watch the next hbo broadcast.....Kellerman them gone mention something bout him. u know this.

Why should I go in depth on that. Do you disagree?

answer that first before this goes any further breh.

Breh let these lil g stans live in lala land. they been forcing lil g down our throats for 2 years now and he still ain't shyt. like I said earlier there's is not a fight in boxing that will do 750k ppv buys

 

[LauderdaleBoss]

at nikkas forcing GGG down anybody throat round here.

fukking haters and the media do that enough all ready.

nikkas will say GGG ducking Ward, but then can't say Canelo ducking GGG. (#ConsistencyCops)

nikkas think the casuals and general boxing public care more about a past it Cotto vs prime Canelo, than prime undefeated destroying nikkas GGG vs prime Canelo.

nikkas is happy that Canelo still ain't switch the difficulty setting in FN UK career mode from PRO to CHAMPION.

nikkas is Kellerman with the spirit of Eddie Futch on his shoulder when it comes to analyzing other fighters, but turn into advanced casuals when discussing GGG.
Acting all blind to the obvious.

 

[krackdagawd]

Canelo/Cotto 2 isn't a bad fight. Especially since Cotto actually has a fanbase that cops his ppvs

GGG is the biggest hbo promoted fighter in the last idk how many years no other fighter exclusive to that network gets the promo he does. Canelo is their biggest draw and doesn't get the promo he gets. Hell pre Oscar Floyd did a lot more while given a lot less of promo from hbo. nikkas still making excuses for this dude

Exactly.


Khan is nowhere near the draw GGG is, and never been on PPV, but yet Canelo/Khan did 600k....and they saying Canelo/GGG can't do shyt

 

[Newzz]

nikkas will say GGG ducking Ward, but then can't say Canelo ducking GGG. (#ConsistencyCops)

Yep

nikkas think the casuals and general boxing public care more about a past it Cotto vs prime Canelo, than prime undefeated destroying nikkas GGG vs prime Canelo.

Right

nikkas is happy that Canelo still ain't switch the difficulty setting in FN UK career mode from PRO to CHAMPION.

Silly

nikkas is Kellerman with the spirit of Eddie Futch on his shoulder when it comes to analyzing other fighters, but turn into advanced casuals when discussing GGG.

Flawless victory

Why should I go in depth on that. Do you disagree?

answer that first before this goes any further breh.

well I would have to say no for now cause I think they always promote his fights all the time whenever I watch hbo.

that's why I wanted u go indepth.....maybe im forgetting something.

now for other ex...ill say I think this ward-kov fight is not being promoted good......shyt I don't think may-pac was promoted good. I can pull up that thread right now where people saying that shyt has no buzz.lol

shyt nelo fight with liam just came n went to me. I heard Oscar on a Monday night football talking bout it with a banner at the bottom. but other than that none his promotion was spectacular.

so u could make the argument that big draws sale(more than 97k-100k) regardless of promotion or opponent, but I could see yall side saying that the match up(of combined names) is gonna make it a big ppv number.

also breh those days of fights leading to something are very rare these days. like both ggg and nelo on the same card fighting then they fight each other next. fighting the same opponents(at least pac may did this at first even tho they didn't capatilize off of it in 07-09)...all kinda lil shyt like that to build fights rarely happen these days. so in short compared to those strategies back in the don-king era, yeah ggg-lemieux probably was promoted bad and pretty much 90% of the other fights these days.

Yes it is...it's even worse than the 1st right now

 

[krackdagawd]

Well if I recall in the thread a lot of people thought it was close and Cotto actually has a fanbase that cops his ppv soooooo
