    The WBC Champ against the last lineal Champ and ticket sales are poor, now that either says heavyweight boxing over the big pond is now of no interest to the public or that these 2 boxers aren't of interest to the ticket buying public.

    Who knows the fight might never actually happen....................

    thats what im saying. you put 20k people in a room for $50 bucks a piece and give them a show, every single one in there is going to tell everyone they know about it, post on fb about it, play the boxing expert in their social circle because of it, and spread how the winner is going to fight aj. the ones that pay $50 are the type that make it feel like an event, they get personally involved in the fight, they yell at the ref, scream for their favorite, join in on songs, etc... i think theyre trying to give it more gravitas than it deserves, and trying to sell it to the high rollers. its not a battle of legends.

    Imo, the tickets for this fight are super overpriced. This fight ain't Mayweather/Pacquiao but yet its priced like it is.

    They are planning to match Joshua for revenue, they cant do the numbers so they need to price it really high. It certainly isnt priced fairly but anything less than ripping everybody off isnt going to boost the $$$$$ enough. Sorry fans your guna have to foot the bill for Finkel getting desperate.
