    I'm sure they've done a few of Bertos fights, wasn't the Rodriguez bout shown on a delay?

    This is what pisses me off about American Promoters and it is why the game is dying over there. They could have had it in St Louis made a huge promotion, created a lot of hype, had a great atmosphere and in general had a great event that would have added to the TV experience and created future interest in the Sport in that region.

    Instead they wanted to put it where the biggest licence fee was instead of the best location and they don't sell any tickets or create any interest in that area because they don't need to work the pr machine because they will still turn a profit off of HBO and Venue Licence Fee Money regardless of how many tickets they sell. And this same mistake is happening with Martinez-Dzinriuk and Lee-Duddy so stupid.

    To be fair, Don King really wanted to have it in St Louis but Gary Shaw would have none of it.
    This is what pisses me off about Bradley.He complains he isn't getting paid enough but he cannot sell tickets even in his hometown. Did him and Shaw think they would do better at a neutral venue?

    Can any of Shaw's guys sell tickets? Does he even actually promote?

    Dawson can't draw ****, nor can Bradley.

    I can understand it at the casinos but how on earth are they getting a site fee for this ridiculous venue. How do the stadium owners expect to recoup that money?! Madness
