    You can pretend to be a star in America that way. I went to the Joshua fight and I’m pretty sure that most of the crowd was from the UK. Probably 65/35.

    arum signed fury for the wilder and fury rematches. if advertised well im sure it will get 2,000,000 ppv's sold minimum, they are willing to sign fury for that alone, there will be a 3rd fight no doubt about it.

    I think we talked about this....

    The upper deck was more American and the bowl was more UK. I was in both places.

    I first witnessed this trend when I went to see Wlad vs Haye in Germany. If I didn't know any better I would have figured I made a wrong turn somewhere and ended up in London instead of Hamburg.

    Wtf does this even mean? At least they are supporting the sport. You should be happy the atmosphere was good if you are a so called “hardcore” fan.

    Literally noone made either of those comparisons. And I hate flag waving national biases as much as anyone on this site does.

    There were many comparisons to Ali as there were legions of posters who believed Joshua would dismantle and topple Ali without fuss.

    I suspect most of the crowd would have been Brits. Holiday makers and guys on stag dos who didn't come to Vegas especially for Fury but would have went along anyway.

    The number of comps seems low. My experience is that MGM Grand will give comps to pretty much any guest for a fight that isn't sold out. Less than 2000 comps suggests they couldn't give them away.

    They will be lucky to sell a million PPVs for the second fight.
