Teofimo Lopez vs George Kambosos Jr

Post by maverick23 »

Triller have just won the purse bids with $6m!

Eddie bid $3.5m whilst Top Rank only bid $2.3m.

They certainly won’t find it as easy to sell as a Mike Tyson exhibition but certainly looks like there’s another big time player in boxing.

Iv heard madness about this under carding for mike Tyson vs Evandro hollifeild. Great for getting casuals to see teo, especially considering it’s billed as undisputed with an overmatched opponent, but feels a bit fucked up to have a mabey undisputed fight undercard for an exhibition...

At 6 million its a steal. Bob Arum offering 2.3m$ kinda indicates that Top Rank is over and done.

This is a great fight and I'm simply not brave enough to predict a winner. This fight coupled with Tyson vs Holy III will be a great card, just hope neither man gets hurt, but if they do atleast both men have had lots of fun during their lifetimes.

The ain’t isn’t worth $6m..

Loma-Lopez wasn’t even worth that much.

Depending on what else they add to the card, they might be able to make it work, but even DAZN bid $3.5m

You have valid points. But if Loma-Lopez isnt worth 6m$ then what kind of sport is this? The quality of the fight on paper was off the charts a once in 5 years kind of thing. I think that this is a bit like the story of the blonde twin sisters with the big boobs. One found a guy with a big cock and a good heart and they had lots of kiddies and a good life together. The other one found a fellow that did nothing but beat her and abuse her mentally and her life didnt turn out that good. So the value depends on whose hands the product is. I think that these Triller guys can make cash from this one as a stand alone product or if used as an undercard bout for Holy vs Tyson they are really getting their monies worth.

They arleady said it's gonna be it's own PPV headliner.

It's all about mainstream and TBH, 90% of all active boxers are just not known to the general population..

Let's see what Triller can do. Hopefully it can work out for them.

I predict that all of Teofimos championship reign fights will be broadcast by Triller. Wouldnt be surprised if Bob sells Top Rank to them.

I just realized how easily this prediction comes true; Teo loses by Ko to Kambosos and retires. Ofcourse thats not what I meant.
