    ^

    Maybe even more than 200,000 people, man.

    IIRC, some reported it as 500K.

    It was free admission, though. But still.

    I think it was 140,000 now that I recall. Also, Chavez-Haugen I did 130,000.

    "The Battle of Manila Bay"

    Luisito Espinosa vs Cesar Soto


    Johnny Blayze:

    Yeah. But that place was the biggest coliseum we got at that time. If it was much bigger, I think they would still have filled that thing up.

    Mosley Delahoya had just under 25,000 in the Staples Center in LA...Both are from the LA area so that isnt that big of a deal.


    Fights in the states dont usually have huge crowds because the promoters here like to use smaller buildings, its better for TV.
