Big day on Saturday with two major telecasts to end January 2022.
Hall of Fame promoter Don King presents a $49.99 pay-per-view world title double doubleheader in Warren, Ohio, featuring WBA heavyweight champion Trevor Bryan (21-0, 15 KOs) defending against #13 rated Jonathan Guidry (17-0-2, 10 KOs) and WBC cruiserweight champion Ilunga Junior Makabu (28-2 with 25 KOs) defending against Thabiso Mchunu (23-5, 13 KOs).
The DKP show will go head-to-head with an ESPN telecast promoted by none other than King’s former arch-rival Bob Arum/Top Rank. The Top Rank show from Tulsa, Oklahoma has a pair of ten round junior lightweight bouts in the spotlight as Robson Conceicao (16-1, 8 KOs) returns against Xavier Martinez (17-0, 11 KOs, and Rene Tellez Giron (16-1, 10 KOs) meets Luis Melendez (17-1, 13 KOs.
As always, there may be some streams popping up here and there. For example, Thursday’s card in Spain featuring former world champion Sergio Martinez (54-3-2, 30 KOs) vs. Macaulay McGowan (14-2-1, 3 KOs) will likely surface somewhere.
Sorry, $49 for this PPV card does not perk up my interests. I wish all the fighters good luck this upcoming weekend.
This will get less then $1000 buys.
“The DKP show will be completely forgotten in comparison to an ESPN telecast promoted by none other than King’s former arch-rival Bob Arum/Top Rank.”
There. FTFY
Can’t see $50 for this PPV extravaganza in the mecca of Boxing, Warren, Ohio……
Add: I forgot that Don King is from Ohio.
Lol Don King must be broke af thinking anyone gonna pay to watch that card and sorry wba is the worst and most non relavant organization in Boxing.
Oh he’s not broke! He’s just a pitiful conman through and through! Wander how many idiots will fork over even a dime to that man
Aw HELL NO!! After all the crooked things Don King productions have done for decades, he should come out of his own pocket for this one! Not like he’s gonna take his millions with him after he dies right?!
good luck with this dkp.
once again trying to confirm that there is a sucker born every minute
If Guidry manages to win this somehow, he would be, by far, the most out of the blue Heavyweight belt holder in the history of boxing. It seems that even the most hard-core posters on this site had never heard of Guidry until the WBA/King decided to insert him into the top 15 to ensure King’s fighter Bryan got to keep his paper title. This is more absurd the the WWE.
I already buy DAZN, ESPN+ and Showtime and still have to pay for PPV? Not this card for sure.
ESPN+ and Showtime will also charge ppv even though you also pay a subscription
Good luck for the great Sergio “maravilla” Martinez in his third comeback fight. Maybe his best luck would be to loose and don’t risk more his 47 years old body.
– I always liked Sergio Martinez.
– Saw him live in Atlantic City, NJ, vs Kelly Pavlik.
Hard pass. I wonder if Guidry has roots in Louisiana because I have come across several Guidry folks from Louisiana.
The only Guidry I’ve heard of was Ron Guidry, who was a pitcher for the Yankees I believe, and he was from Louisiana as well….
no ppv for me never heard of these guys
No one is gonna order this PPV. And no one is gonna shell out $50 a month to watch Adrien Broner have sex on his Only Fans page!
