If i had to guess I would say 1,000 people showed up to watch arreola and Pwill. You can see like 2 people sitting around 25 or so empty seats! Poor paul he claims no one want's to fight him. I guess he'll start saying soon even the fans are ducking him.
Steve Kim reported it was about half-full and said it was a pretty descent turnout considering the factors and he is usually pretty honest about things. Most fans were there for Arreola thats just fact. P-Will MAYBE down the road could be a draw but fact remains dude can't get bees to watch him fight even if he was covered in honey.
And JEEEZZZ Kellerman is a CLOWN...Some of the most ridiculous statement I've ever heard. He needs to get his own calling card STOP trying to be like Merchant because Merchant he ain't!
That, or having Arreola as your last name fighting in SO CAL had something to do with that...
i thought you were smarter than that. you're pretty much anyone with a mexican last name can get attention in SO CAL :rofl:

I was at the fight first row and it was not full but. I would say about 3-4 thousand were there. It is a new arena and the fight did not get alot of advertising. This fight did not have alot of time when it was announced. The only advertising they did was a small ad in the local Riverside paper. If there would have been more time and more advertising I would like to think there would have been more people
Pwill is not a legit star yet..
So yes..
HBO doesnt promote boxing like it used to man..
It sucks buts thats life man..
I like Pwill, I used to think he was unbeatable after he beat Marg..
But after seeing the quintana fight, i kno he can be beat by a good boxer who is mobile..
Its good to have him in the sport, he wants to fight every1.. He hasnt complained much about money (if he does i havent heard)
So stop the hate, and stop the dickriding threads as well
Im not hijacking the thread.. Just making a statement
so it's pretty evident goosen knows pwill isn't a sell and needs to have arreloa on the undercard to have any interest in the card.

Considering he was basically fighting in his hometown, is this any surprise?

Max Kellerman on PWill: size like Hearns, style like Pernell and body attack like Chavez
i was rooting for verno..lol
you forgot the tyson comment kellerman made. I don't think kellerman believes that he is too smart. I think HBO had something to do with those comments.
They said around 5,000 was there in press conference. Where did you hear 1,000 or are those your own personal estimates?
oh please stop it. go by what you see not hear. They also said there was 5,000 at the mosley vs mayorga fight but the posters there said that was bull shit and no more than 2500. One of them is a writer for boxingscene and maxboxing.

Yeah, I was laughing my ass off when he said that. Hyperbole much, Max?
all the way up to heavyweight!!! Paul is like hearns!!!! hands like medrick taylor!!!
Now you got it! It's still not too late to join team PWill!:rofl::rofl:
Exactly. Margarito backers were scared to show up. They know PWill would have called every single one of them out, and fought every one of them, from Strawweight, to Crusier. Plain and Basic Common Sense....

Good fight? only good fight i seen was the arreola fight. But this is truely amazing stuff. Williams gives "tyson like fears" even the fans are scared to show up to watch him.

No. I was too busy watching some good fights. But **** it, I'll play along. All those empty seats represent Margaritos cowardice....:lol1:
