I hire mexicans from time to time, I asked them today if they know garcia will be fighting saturday, but just one of them knew him.
I’m telling you man I asked literally 8 of these guys and they all looked at me like “who” They only buy canelo fights
This content is protected Funny how hearn has kept quite this week you just know if ticket sales were low he would be all over it.
It’s not hard to believe that this fight will have at least 50k.. Fox and the Cowboys organization has done a great job promoting this fight.. Fox is doing a huge number on Showtime which I believe is by design as they tried to buy the full rights to PBC before settling on sharing with SHO.. How soon people forget that Errol sold out the Ford center which holds 16k for a complete unknown Ocampo..
Mikey is not in the same popularity stakes like Canelo we all know that. I doubt anyone thinks he is seen as a Mexican heros like the others Mexican legends
Hey, I'm Mexican and only the Mexicans who follow boxing closely know who Mikey Garcia is, the casual Mexican boxing fan doesn't know who Mikey is.
tejanos and northern mexicans know who mikey is. hes fought on big cards in san antonio and built a big name in the region. they will travel to see him. the cards ive been to here, are full of fans who made the 3 hour drive up from mexico or drove down from other parts of tx. mikey has even fought in corpus christi i believe.
