Garcia Vs Davis will heal the sport.

So Okolie v Cieslak headliner pulled in about 6k to the O2 arena, if he was fighting Breidis instead in the headliner I would wager money that not more than 10k would be in attendance, it is a much bigger fight for hardcore fans but not for casual fans and that is down to the popularity of Okolie not the opponent.

 

Breidis is the biggest name currently in the cruiserweight division, so what you are saying is Okolie, when he moves up will be able to sell out the O2 as the A side? Nah I highly doubt that unless his fighting/hugging style changes. And also you have picked 2 fighters to try and make your point where Okolie is not the A side the only ones he sells out the O2 Vs as the 'A side' are Riakporhe and Chisora. That's if he is even the A side v Chisora.

 

Haha, you said Okolie and someone else were fighting minnows, if they were fighting big names they would sell out. I disagree....... Eubank v Smith is surely a bigger fight than Beterbeast V Yarde. Boxing is very good in the UK, 3 top promoters and some very good talent.

 

Closer fight will be the Eubank - Smith fight. Beterbiev should run through Yarde before the undisputed fight.

 

Idk about you guys but mega fight for me is Bivol - Beterbiev

 

The obsession with Luke is like Titanic grossing the biggest box office or Crazy Frog being number 1 in the charts for months. Basically, people are scum.

 

Britain is the home of boxing where the sport was created. Brazil is the home of MMA, Japan is the grand parent and large Japanese migration to Brazil is why Vale Tudo took off there.

Anyway the USA is not the home of boxing.

 

Ward Kovalev was the highest level bout of recent memory. Even considerably higher than Pacquiao Mayweather which was a fight between two has beens.
