    Since we did this for weeks before Wilder-Fury ... it looks like you can go online and get tickets for any seat you like for Canelo-Fielding.

    Even the MSG site has entire rows of seats available ... everywhere. The fight is in two days, right?

    Will Hearn turn on the lights at MSG, or will it be dark in the arena like it was for Miller-Adamek and Miller-Dinu so you can't see the rows of empty seats?

    Will they turn the TV cameras around facing press row, since they know there will be people in those seats?

    I heard Miller and Joshua are going to be sitting ringside. Will they be holding flashlights under their chins so people can see them if the lights don't get turned on inside MSG?

    Eddie Hearn conquers America one seat at a time.

    Who wants a game of "Spot the Agenda"?

    Why are you mentioning just Hearn but not Oscar? It's a co promotion isn't it? Lemieux on the bill..

    Or are you trying to say it all Hearn and it's a failure because you're still a little embarrassed by the Wilder Vs Fury numbers and sales after all the big predictions?



    Anyway, let's be sensible, it's Rocky Fielding, in the US, what were you expecting?

    I was expecting a Canelo Alvarez show. The guy who sold more than 40,000 tickets against a nobody like Liam Smith and put it on a $75 PPV.

    MSG isn't that big. And it's a $10 app.

    The turnaround was far too soon for a proper promotion. Drug Mule just fought in September. DAZN just wanted to get the brand out there.

    According to Forbes Magazine, 10 million people watched Wilder-Fury over illegal streams.

    Just so you know.

    That's going to be a big issue with PBC moving into a more PPV driven model

    FFS :risas3: That's how desperate you lot are now, you want to start counting estimates of illegal streams, f'ing estimates LOL


    And Just so you know how poor Wilder Vs Fury did, let's compare their event, errr two youtubers (KSI Logan Paul), two amateurs, made more of a profit on their show than Wilder and Fury did on theirs.

    Let that sink in.

    Because it's being marketed as a DAZN production here. The only commercials airing are CANELO ON DAZN.

    I don't think Wilder-Fury was aimed at the TWEEN GIRL audience. But nice try.

    Just stating facts. 10 million watched it on illegal streams. You probably did, too.

    I think the app model is going to hurt ticket sales going forward, actually. I've had to decide whether to buy a ticket to a fight or order a PPV. And sometimes the tickets are available for less than the PPV so I bought a ticket.

    They are never going to sell tickets for less than $10.

    DAZN has televised at least two shows where I live, and I never went to either card. Because the app is either free or $10, depending on the month.

    Don't kid yourself. I've seen Hearn trying to promote this in the U.S. more than Oscar has, who seems preoccupied with the UFC. Oscar seems bloated and looks like he's "using" again.

    According to Oscar, it's almost sold out.
