Lucian Bute : I'm Ready to Fight Kessler Anywhere

x2.
In truth the fight should be where it can draw the biggest crowd and make the most for the fighters. This fight wouldnt make sense in America and should be in Denmark, Romania, Canada etc

 

It wont make anything in Romania.

 

335.000 Romanians (Romania has a ~22 million population) watched the match live, at TV at 5 o'clock in the morning. His title defense is to take place on a stadium in Bucharest at a decent hour. Unfortunately he's the single champion Romania has. Other popular sports lack "VIPs", so to say. That means he won't make 1$ in Romania, of course.

 

I was just thinking that you couldn't charge more than 1 USD a ticket if people shall be able to afford it, or am I prejudiced?

 

I'm not gonna lie to you: not a single seat or square meter of grass must be unoccupied for the sales to be on par with what he makes in Canada.

 

That's why I said it wouldn't make such big money. 5 USD for a boxing match ain't a thing to brag about in most of Europe.

 

Anywhere, then he specifically mentions Canada, USA or Romania. :rofl

Come to Parken when Kessler has two eyes and is injury free, they'll sell out a large capacity stadium.

 

Of corse, Kessler is the only champ coming from your freezing part of the world. I understand the envy of not seeing great fights in Sweden, since MK is now with Sauerland. Here in Montreal, we are blessed with the likes of Bute, Pascal, Lemieux....we have something like 8 or 9 guys in the top 10 of different belts. Plus, even or neighbors from the south are starting to get upset with us, because, the major promos, being Showtime or HBO are interested to make business here. That must explain parts of the hate Bute gets from a bunch of you guys..... envy. Sorry, it's only the beginning, you will have to get used to this situation, because it will only get better for us, in our great city of Montreal. Other than that, bunch of you should think with your head for a change....hating on pro boxers is stupid, even if I don't like all boxers, they all get my respect for being modern day warriors. What is you reason for being such pricks, it's out of my understanding....or you don't really like boxing!!!!

 

The last fight With Froch vs Kessler in denmark,was sold out,i was there.I had tickets about 40m from ringside,good view.they cost 350 $

 

The cheapest ticket in Denmark for Kessler-Froch was 125 USD.

 

I was near ringside. Together with a yank I've met on a boxingboard. I paid about the same.
