You think another 500k are gonna buy the fight to see Triple G? :mjlol: :dahell: :dafukkyouthinkingson?:
I think you're under-estimating how much hype this fight has. it's going to attract people from every demographic. it's not because little g himself has 500k worth of drawing power, but because the world knows this fight is going to be great. two p4p stars with exciting styles. after the disappointment of floyd-pac, people are clamoring for a true mega fight that lives up to the hype. canelo will bring every mexican fan in the country....hardcore and casual. floyd's last fight barely did 350k but if he fought little g it would do well over 1 mil too. people just wanna see the superstars in there with great fighters. people will tune in simply because they know canelo can actually lose. this isn't gonna be a fight with much running around....both guys love to exchange and both guys got big time power. enough to hurt eachother. there's a great chance this fight ends in KO....at the very least both guys will be bloodied up. this shyt will do massive numbers. especially if the promotion is on point.

Anthony Joshua informs his promoter Eddie Hearn of who he wants to fight next following his big win over Klitschko.

Anthony Joshua is a man in demand at the moment following his monumental win over Wladimir Klitschko that sold a staggering 90,000 tickets at Wembley stadium.

Everyone wants a piece of the heavyweight champion now and the likes of Deontay Wilder, Tyson Fury, Joseph Parker, a Klitschko rematch and many others have already been mentioned as possibilities.

It could be argued that Joshua following the win over Klitschko is now most likely the biggest star in world boxing. If he’s not, he could just be a close second to Canelo Alvarez in terms of star power.

Although the pay per view records he shattered in the UK for the Klitschko fight suggest that Joshua is already a bigger star than Canelo.

Certainly on a worldwide basis – as Joshua’s fights also drew big numbers in the US and in Germany.

Despite all the offers out there at the moment and possibilities of unification world title fights, Joshua wants one rematch more than any other.

Speaking to The Times, Joshua said he has told his promoter Eddie Hearn that he would like to fight old foe Dillian Whyte next up.:skip:

Joshua fought Whyte in December of 2015 and knocked him out cold via a brutal uppercut.

However the feelings between the two have seemed to continue on since the fight and Joshua, who lost to Whyte in the amateurs – clearly wants to make it 2-1 overall between amateur and pro






naw I like josh but I cant get jiggy with this shyt:francis:

the PPV king:CaneloRejoice:......and they said million buy ppv's were a thing of the past:wow:


almost bitter sweet because bytch boy disgraced the sport with his performance. still can't believe he went out like that:scust:


I think canelo little g will do around 1.5 though. most people are strictly blaming julio for saturday night and they'll be back for the little g fight. there's so much hype surrounding this....this is a fight that will bring in all races, casuals, and even MMA fans. word of mouth alone will bring in a few hundred thousand.
Impressive numbers.

Lends credence to the fact Canelo-GGG will go over a million as well and do excellent financially.

Also more evidence that if you make good matchups odds are in your favor people will pay attention.

Who Wilder has fought since he won that belt? :sas2:
Sure he would've fought Povetkin who was his mandatory.
He won that belt 2 years ago but now that Joshua beat Klitschko and doesn't call out Wilder right away y'all busting his balls.. alright... :sas1:
