It's not clear it has. Mayweather vs Pacquiao did 4.7 million then around 1.2 million in the UK so it would be close. Only thing we know for sure is that Mayweather vs McGregor didn't beat Mayweather vs Pacquiao in the US

Boxing PPV this year: Mayweather vs McGregor 4.4 million (US Only) Canelo vs Golovkin 1.3 million Joshua vs Klitschko 1.2 million Canelo vs Chavez 1 million Haye vs Bellew approx 700k
Misses: Golovkin vs Jacobs 170k Ward vs Kovalev 2 125k Parker vs Fury around 150 people
Connor Nelson
>Ward vs Kovalev 2 125k Holy shit, Ward get's no burn lmao!
Jace Robinson
Ward basically sabotaged that PPV to fuck over Kovalev
Kayden Wilson
Kovalev really got fucked
Sebastian Martinez
what? that can't be real
Connor Morgan
Kovalev's pay was tied to the PPV, Ward got 6.5 guaranteed from Roc nation
Aiden Jones
yea kovalev got absolutely ruined by ever agreeing to fight ward, he could have ducked him and been considered a light heavy atg
Henry Bennett
I'll bet Kovalev and Roc Nation both lost money
Wyatt Barnes
Loma > Rigo
Nolan Powell
+++
Aiden Watson
Loma probably wins on activity alone.
Jack Phillips
He's going to KO Rigo
Elijah Powell
i think finding asylum in the usa was enough for him post a fantastic amateur career.
Asher Jones
ward pushed for ppv, got his guarantee and then dropped all promotion of the fight
Xavier Wilson
nope. Loma is not a big puncher and rigo runs and defends well. loma by UD based on activity.
Carter Campbell
>Loma is not a big puncher >Literally stops everyone he fights
James Wood
Hopefully so, there's a lot of unbelievably sketchy shit that goes on getting these guys out of Cuba.
Owen Edwards
loma typically stops people by attrition not with big power. I agree loma wins. why insist on being a faggot by saying it'll be by KO against a guy with rigos style? save the constant faggotry for someone else.
Wyatt Ward
Man the boxing calendar is looking amazing
Aaron Clark
>B-b-but boxing is dead
Luke Campbell
October is a fantastic month jammed every weekend
Austin Fisher
Any day now
Carson Turner
You'll see in the ring when you realize just how much bigger Loma is and how fucking dumb the people calling for this fight were.
Ian Fisher
>A guy with Rigos style
The same guy who got dropped twice by Hisashi Amagasa. Wow what a legend he is
Jack Rogers
"dropped"
Christopher Phillips
He got dropped by Donaire as well, for a guy who is meant to be a defensive god he's been dropped a few times
Gavin Hughes
There will be like 8-10 lbs between them in the ring which is standard in a lot of bouts
Noah Martin
His chin is no secret
Elijah Bailey
Literally what did he mean by this post
Lucas James
He's chinny, everyone knows it, and has known it for literally years
You're not saying anything revelatory here
Jordan Carter
So we both agree that a chinny 36 year old coming up two weight classes to fight maybe the most talented fighter on earth is only going to end up one way, with him getting stretched
Evan Walker
David 'Red Flag' Benavidez
Lucas Wright
Pretty much yeah, fingers crossed Rigo pushes his shit in, Loma walks into punches when he gets cocky, and Rigo can punch, but it's a long shot, every intangible is against him.
Christopher Nelson
Loma won't impose his strength on him and Rigo's monkey arms and fleet feet will keep him at bay. He only touches canvas when he gets cocky and takes too many risks, it's a balance issue, but he won't do that against Loma
Joseph Collins
Why haven't the WBC reinstated Yamanka as the champ yet?
Ryder Sullivan
Maybe they're waiting for the match result to be formally overturned. He's expected to be reinstated very soon
Easton Scott
david benavidez vs caleb plant, who wins?
Liam Mitchell
Benavidez crushes him. Benavidez vs Zurdo is the fight I want to see

lol fucking casuals, please exit the thread.
Juan Evans
>The sport is being carried by Floyd (retired), Manny (Soon to be reitred), Klitschko (retired) and an mma fighter
kek nice sport
Aiden Carter
Joshua and Canelo are going to be active for another 6 years and they're both clearing a million on PPV everytime. UFC is relying on Michael fucking Bisping lmao
Adam Martin
>Michael fucking Bisping never even heard of the faggot
Noah James
Dont hate buddeh
Matthew Ross
Neither has the average person in his home country
David Baker
>He doesn't have any reading comprehension Which shit sport do you follow? The NFL?
Jose Roberts
>barely manages 1mill PPV buys >muh mega star
Jaxson Parker
Stop responding to redditors you fucking tards
Jason Martinez
UFC is relying on Georges St. Pierre and his French-Canadian fanbase
Jason Long
Roc lost a shit ton on the fight according to promoters
Benjamin Myers

Nathaniel Reyes
>Gets two 1 million PPV bouts in one year. >Not a PPV star You still haven't said which sport you follow user. Come on, don't be insecure. You know what I follow, so lets make this fair.
Aaron Williams
Most new fans don't even know him
Dominic Peterson
fucking irish...
Lucas Lewis
It's either this or we let the Rigo or Nery shitposters crowd the thread. Pick your poison.
Aaron Murphy
>Irelands own Canelo Alvarez
Oliver Edwards
Not my problem
Camden Clark
don't you think that's a bit early? I'd rather see benavidez fight some other prospects before a step up like that
Chase Allen
A guy who hasn't had a fight since 2013 and has no personality. It won't clear a million and Wilder vs Ortiz is happening the same day
Grayson Myers
does /box/ rank Francisco Vargas? he's got heart, i like him.
Camden Mitchell
...
Landon Harris
Yes I do
Adam Anderson
>defensive cuban manlet is /ourguy/
no
David Barnes
Yeah but he's probably on the slide now, hasn't fought since losing to Berchelt and Golden Boy had him in back to back wars
Christian Parker
He's not your guy because you don't belong here
Carson Morgan
you have to go back
Jordan Collins
well said
Nolan Wright
I think you'd be suprised
Brandon Thomas
Only contrarians like rigo
Loma was loved in /box/ until he got popular lmao
Luis Torres
>reddit spacing
Adrian Ward
He's a good lad, strong banter game. This was after he came in a 5-1 underdog against this smug prick, said he'd knock him out in the first and then did it
Christian Adams
Lomachenko is only loved by people that just started watching boxing.
Why has there been so much shitposting here all of a sudden? It's not even as if it's just one group of people shitting up the threads, Rigoposters, Neryposters, MMAposters, all of them are striking at once.
Just fucking stop, these threads are supposed to be comfy. Is it because Boxing is starting to get popular with the MMA crowd from May-Mac and Canelo-Golovkin, so now /heem/ is coming over here to ruin us like they did to themselves?
Colton Young
You seem to be an expert on reddit
Brody Evans
>posts le boogeyman hypejob that got starched by Garcia
T. Boxing contrarian
Liam Cook
say it one more time
Xavier Butler
/heem/ has gotten to bad people are started to move over to /box/
It's because there is so many new people here that think Lomachenko is the best thing in boxing. They blatantly ignore the fact that he refused vada.
Gabriel Russell
8 billion people got banned for spamming on /heem/ so they're shitting this place up instead, plus reddit invaded before Canelo-Golovkin and hasn't left. People really just need to stop responding to garbage posts and things will go back to normal
Dominic Scott
ban all illegal mexicans and non-americans (except a few britsharts that know what they're talking about and maybe 1 or 2 leafs/micks)
/box/ will be back to normal then
Jackson Ross
I want to go back to being a dead sport again.
Jackson Cruz
Did some mention Nery?
Colton Johnson
>ban all illegal mexicans
>Did some mention Nery? right on time, spic
Ryder Fisher
> right on time, spic
Not a Nery fan but you need to take that edge someplace else.
Julian Morales
>upset you're the same illegal spic that keeps sucking canelo's dick, aren't you? yea, you can fuck off too, mi carnal.
Aiden Hall
Not upset you just sound like a total moron. Can't imagine someone being a racist boxing fan. I would ban all racist posters.
Gavin Torres
you're always welcome to go back to plebbit, pussy
Daniel Jones
totally agree I was really underwhelmed by red flag in his last fight. Think he needs 2 more high level fights before he fights someone like Zurdo
Christopher Myers
Who are the quintessential boxers for each of the schools of boxing?
Matthew Cook
how do you know what reddit spacing looks like? Do you visit the website a lot and notice patterns in the way their users post?
Leo Diaz
> you're always welcome to go back to plebbit, pussy
Mom let you have mountain dew for breakfast huh?
Lincoln Allen
>Call someone a spic >muh racism Where do think you are you absolute pansy
