No announcement yet.
Is the "GGG" a major draw in the UK (using Brook's name) the biggest stretch?

A GG-Eubank fight at the O2 would have sold out and replicated the numbers set by GG-Brook. Again, which is why it was set for PPV and the terms were exactly the same. If Brook accepted the exact same terms as what Jr was offered and walked away with £5m, then we know that that's what Jr would have made. So Eddie Hearn and Matchroom had huge confidence in the amount of PPV's buys it would have generated.
If Brook fought Spence at the O2, it would probably still sell out, but not as quick, and it wouldn't generate anywhere near as much in PPV as GG-Eubank.
GG is the main reason why the fight did 500k in PPV revenue, not Brook.
Brook wasn't offered different terms because he simply told Eddie he'll take the fight under any terms, he wanted a big fight against a good opponent.
Eddie Hearn will put anything on PPV (Haye-Bellew, Joshua-Martin, Bellew-Cleverley, etc...), it's really not important.
Kell Brook sold that fight, everyone was hoping to see him pull off something special. He had all the support, he was already a big draw in the UK and he would have got the same response had he moved up to fight any other MW with a belt.
Golovkin still isn't a big deal here.

Canelo is a big name. If Khan was an Hearn fighter that would have been PPV too.
You don't know shit.
You're on a roll.
Yes, that's EXACTLY what I'm saying.
If Canelo came to the U.K. to fight Brook at the O2 or in a football stadium, Matchroom would put it on PPV and surround the fight with other fighters from their stable. They would try and have guys like Crolla, Bellew and Eubank etc as part of the card and sell it as a big event as a whole. They could also try to have AJ on there as a double main event. It would be a big event that would sell out instantly and do good numbers on PPV. People would definitely purchase it.
Brook fighting Canelo on Oscar's promotion in the U.S. would be a different thing entirely.
Kell Brook is not Ricky Hatton.
The only other time he was on PPV, was when Matchroom had Crolla and AJ on etc, and the figures were poor.
None of Brook's fights after Gavin were on PPV.
Eddie Hearn and Matchroom could never charge PPV to see Brook fight Canelo in Texas.
Hardly anyone would purchase it.
You are absolutely deluded.
Completely clueless.Last edited by robertzimmerman; 12-06-2016, 11:30 AM.

People stayed up to see Ricky Hatton fight Floyd and Manny, but not many people would buy a £17 PPV to stay up for Brook-Canelo.
He doesn't have the fan base. You could only put Brook on PPV if it was in Britain with a stacked card featuring other Matchroom fighters.

You can pretend he's a superstar all you want, it still doesn't make him one.
How many times are you going to type:
"Golovkin was the draw though"
?
Pathetic.
GG was the main reason why the fight did 600k, but you can't admit it due to your absolute hatred of the man.
What sort of person has his life taken over by a boxer?
You need to see a psychiatrist.

You're just digging a bigger hole for yourself and it's cringeworthy.
Eddie Hearn WOULD NEVER put Brook-Canelo on U.K. PPV at 4am because it would be a like you, a ****ing disaster.
Did you not see the Gavin figures, WITH AJ??
What about his fights against Bizier and Dan?
He can't sell PPV's on his own.
Just stop.
Nobody is interested enough.
Stop hating on a Khazakstan MW and sort yourself out.
