Golovkin-Geale Attendance lower than Hopkins-Shumenov

So, a US American sold more cards in his homecountry than a Kazakh and a Aussi in the US? Wow ..

 

And according to other sources they've already sold over 7,000 as of Wednesday afternoon.

Which is great.

 

Should have done this in australia, yeh ggg is prob the A side but because aus rarely has a world class boxer we usually turn out for the event, and alot of idiotic fans would rock up betting on daniel to ko the unknown GGG

Or maybe im just biased because i dont get to see any good boxing matches down in sunny old melbourne

 

So you're comparing Hopkins, who has been on the major boxing front for two decades, to a guy who has only been seen in America maybe four times?

I'd venture to bet that by the time Saturday night comes, there will be close to 9,000 people at M.S.G. For a guy who isn't up against a well-known opponent, and doesn't speak much English, GGG is doing just fine.

 

SweetSci Owned again.

 

What time are the US fights on in Australia. I think us Europeans get it worst, since the US fights are on a 5am!

Although in fairness at least we have some decent fight here as well.

 

Itll be 10 k by fight time.

Most ppl just buy late unless its a huge fight. many fight tickets are sold thursday,friday and saturday.

 

We have not got it that bad, most of the time its a sunday morning like 11am or midday when the card starts main event at about 3

 

We have 2am - 6am cards. It sucks.

Thank god for tivo.
