Oscar De La Hoya Expects Ryan Garcia-Gervonta Davis PPV To Do Roughly 2.5 Million Buys

Oscar De La Hoya is confident the pay-per-view between Ryan Garcia and Gervonta Davis will do big numbers.

Garcia and Davis have talked about fighting one another for years and it is now expected to happen on April 15 on pay-per-view. When it does happen, De La Hoya – who promotes Garcia – believes it will do around 2.5 million buys.

“We’re all working together to blow this one out of the water,” De La Hoya said on The MMA Hour. “We want to make sure that this event here, because it’s such a special fight, we want to make sure that this fight does 2, 2.5, 3 million homes. This is that type of event. Realistically, close to 2.5.”

Although many are questioning if the fight will happen, Oscar De La Hoya says it will happen and he has the contract right now and is still going over it. However, he says Ryan Garcia vs. Gervonta Davis is 100% on for April 15.

“It’s real. I can assure you it’s going to happen April 15. A hundred percent. It’s a matter of just crossing the ts, dotting the is. We have the contract in our hands. It’s a very complex, very complicated contract, these big fights take a big deal of patience and negotiations,” De La Hoya said. “But it’s actually been a pleasure to work with the other side, with PBC. Making this fight, they understand that this is the biggest fight in boxing to make. This is a fight where you have two undefeated fighters, you have two fighters who are in their prime. You have two fighters who are the best at what they do, so yeah, this is the biggest fight that boxing can have. So I’m excited about it.”

De La Hoya says the fight will likely be official in the next week or two and once that happens it will be full court press on promoting the fight.
