    MSG, capacity 18,200
    Barclays, capacity 18,103

    There both NBA arenas, dumb****, and both fighters are from Brooklyn where Barclays is.

    PBC has a deal with barclays.... none of their fights will ever be in MSG. Barclays put the money up and PBC is delivering

    GGG fans are obsessed with how much black fighters draw or sell tickets. Boxing has become a sport that has devolved into outside the ring gossip instead of discussions about in-ring performances. All yall do on this site is gossip about who sold what or talk about which fights won't happen, instead of the fights that are actually happening and the performances of those fights.

    Barclay's is not the mecca of boxing though and I doubt there were more than 1000 people today. It was pretty quite.

    There was over 20,500 people at Msg for GGG/Lemieux. They clear out the court and fill it with more seats.

    Since they both have ties to Brooklyn, it makes sense. In fact wasn't this dubbed "The Battle of Brooklyn"?

    They also seem to obsess over how much other fighters are making, and PPV buys.

    Wow 249 posts and you figured out the usual suspects. It is not everyone but it may seem like it because some people inhabit this place and make up fairy tales about how they have a life off of this site.
