    It seems inevitable that this fight is going to be cancelled sooner rather than later, yet tickets for this are still on sale.

    I don't think I've come across one reputable reporter or journalist who thinks this fight is still on.

    Chael Sonnen (a clown a lot of the time but has made some really valid points about this on YouTube) said that as a promoter, and in order to abide by the rules of your license, you have to have a belief that the product that you're selling to the public is likely to happen.

    They're not selling tickets for GGG-O'Sullivan, or GGG-Saunders. They're still taking people's money for Canelo-GGG 2 despite all indications are this fight will be cancelled.

    Other than the fishnet bribe comments, what do we think about this? Some sensible discussion would be nice for a change!

    Good tread. Enough on Joshua's boring fight, let's talk about Clenbuterol and this Mexican Cow saga now. :bananaride

    The first fight sold out in 2 days. The rematch tickets have still been available for the longest time. Anyone find that weird?

    Going back to the tread topic, perhaps the tickets are still on sale so that Oscar DelaGaya can take the money and run to Mexico with ClenbuteNelo to start some Cow herding business. :biggrin:

    Until its cancelled the business will run its course.

    Tickets will simply be refunded if and when it gets cancelled.

    Wouldn’t it have been better to a loss like a good boy rather than get popped forPEDs,cancelled fight and tainted career?
    A loss to even an old Golovkin is no shame

    Maybe because the majority finally got to see Golovkin and realized his "Power of Tyson, Shavers and Foreman combined" marketing campaign was only applicable against bums.

    If people are still buying non-refundable anything regarding this rematch, they deserve to have their money taken.

    I feel for the ones that bought airfare and accommodations early and may not have that premier fight to watch that weekend, but if you are still making plans to see this fight, you’re clueless.

    That’s part of it. People also saw it as a robbery. Many factors and things in play.
