There will, of course, be no titles on the line, but it is an opportunity for both to cash in financially. The fight is expected to be a pay-for-view blockbuster, as organizers are hoping it can challenge the 4.6 million pay-per-view buys for Mayweather-Pacquiao. “This is really an unprecedented event,” said Stephen Espinoza, who heads Showtime Sports, which will handle the pay-per-view. “Really we haven’t seen anything in modern history that resembles it, it’s impossible to predict how many sales this will do.” “All parties were motivated and reasonable and thrilled we could get everything done. The sky’s the limit on this. As with every Mayweather and McGregor fight part of the appeal is the spectacle and outsize personalities who are participating in it." The trash-talking Irishman has a dedicated fan base and knows how to sell tickets. In his last fight, McGregor won the lightweight title from Alvarez in November 2015 in UFC's first Madison Square Garden card. At one time promoters were looking at a September 16 date for Mayweather-McGregor but it is now taken by a Canelo Alvarez-Gennady Golovkin middleweight world championship fight at T-Mobile Arena. McGregor received a California boxing license last year but is still waiting for his Nevada boxing license application to be approved. - See more at: http://www.boxingscene.com/shos- ... thash.K1O57YEV.dpuf |
