Pac/Clottey isnt a big enough fight for a venue like Dallas Stadium!

hmm says . . .

I'm sure the sheer size and number of seats, there will be much cheaper tickets to gain a pretty good draw... there's lots of Asians in Dallas and Mexicans and whatever... casual boxing fans or not they'll eat it up...
I hope to see that big humongous 3D screen they will use that Jerry Jones and Arum were talking about if they land a fight in Dallas Stadium... something high tech and new.....

 

i think it will actually do well simply because you got a mega star in Pac now plus he has been in the media a lot lately plus it will the Dallas stadium first boxing event which will attract more people i think it will do just fine.

 

Juan Diaz is fighting Diego Corrales on the undercard I hear. I could be wrong tho.....

 

If the tickets are dirt cheap and there is popular regional fighters on the undercard and they scale back the stadiums capacity, they'll draw a decent crowd. **** there is people that will go just to get into the stadium as cowboy tickets are exepnsive and hard to come across and a lot of people want to check out the new stadium.

All that being said I agree that it's not the proper venue. If you have to go through all that trouble just to fill a place to about 35% capacity, you aren't doing it justice.

 

Agreed but Pac is the biggest draw in boxing right now. He will put the butt in the seats guaranteed.

 

I agree. Very few fights held in the US are capable of attracting 50,000 fans. No American involvement, Clottey doesn't have a belt, is coming of a loss, is not well known... I can't imagine them getting any more than a 15,000 attendance tops.

 

If its got Margarito's comeback and another couple of decent undercard fights it'll be big enough.

 

I don't think it is either..

 

Anybody think we will be seeing any steroid signs in the crowd???

 

this is America..if they did it to Bonds, they will probably do it to Manny. For real.

 

When Pacquaio fought Jorge Solis nearly 3 years ago in Texas, the attendance was around 15k. Needless to say he's a much bigger star right now and is capable of pulling in bigger crowds.

Unless ticket prices are overpriced, which certainly is a possibility, it wouldn't surprise me one bit to see the place sell out. Not only is a Manny a major attraction now, but the fact that this card is taking place at Cowboys stadium also will produce more interest than had it taken place at a regular venue in Vegas.
