It seems that on February 2, between the undisputed champion in the heavyweight category, Arthur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol brought 340k PPV to buy around the world.
The ring reports Pay-Per-View Purchases to Betterbiev-Bivol 2 fighting. Although these numbers can seem reasonable at first glance, they do not reveal what PPV is buying for the US, probably the biggest fight market.
They were believed to be low. You cannot celebrate 340K around the world as this neglects the lack of interests that American fans have had in this event because of a bad headliner. Beterbiev Vs. The removal buffalo was a bad idea.
Boring buffalo
Their first fight was boring to watch, and the fans who remembered how bored were not interested in the second conflict four months later. It’s like watching a bad movie and looking for you to watch it again. People don’t want it. Saudis should get the idea and realize that fans are not interested in seeing Beterbiev and Bivol again.
There are not enough fans who want to see these two battles for the third time. Low PPV presents for the event on February 22. He tells you everything you need to know. People hate this match and that’s understandable why. The buffalo is so boring to watch, and Beterbiev became old and slow. He can no longer cut off the ring, and does not let his hands as he used to be younger.
The organizers of the event must understand the market. If they see that the struggle is boring and has low PPV numbers, the setting of rematch is not a good idea. Since the buffalo’s style was terrible to look at us fans, it’s just interesting to reconcile guys like him against young killers. Beterbiev, 40, is too slow and old to persecute a driver like a buffalo around a ring of 12 rounds.
The buffal was supposed to get into a rematch, fighting against one of the main light candidates. He was supposed to be on the background of the event on February 22, ‘Last Cresendo’, not that she got a rematch after loss. Beterbiev beat him in their first fight last October. Like everyone beaten, they should have to get in line and work on their return, not to get them a rematch that American fans do not want to see.
Last Cresend’s backing
- Carlos Adames Vs. Hamzah Sheeraz
- Shakur Stevenson against Josh Padley
- Zhilei Zhang Vs. Agit Kabayel
- Ziyad Almaaayouf Vs. Jonatas Rodrigo Gomes de Oliveira
The type of fighters where the Saudis should match a boring runner like a buffalo against are guys who can cut off the ring and machine guns, such as David Benavidez or someone who has power like David Morrela. 40-year-old Arthur Beterbiev does not have a young man to rush the buffalo around the ring, and fans do not want to watch these annoying fights.
