Stevenson couldn't even bring 5k people to attend

Not sure how big boxing is in Quebec City but they do hold some fights there. I will be there early December because the place transforms into a European Christmas with everything decorated. My wife and I are staying at the Fairmont for 3 nights. They might even have a major fight at the time since they do early to mid December typically. If it is Stevenson, I wont be attending.

Stevenson-Sukhotsky did 7,500 iirc, so it's down on that. Kovalev does 1,600 in Atlantic City as A-side (Caparello) but more viewers on Cable TV (steady at 1 million viewers). facts!!!!!!!!

Haymon's attempt at a take over is looking like nothing but a 2nd rate UFC knock off with zero advertising time sold, 90% non-competitive matches and a bunch of ducking coward petticoat wearing pansies for their star fighters lol

Place looked full to me. They have a capacity of just over 15,000 for boxing. From the figures given, it was one third full but the way PBC has their entrance stage set up, they probably cut the capacity in half and blocking out the empty sections is very simple to do.

Those were not PBC productions and were properly promoted. I live in Montreal and none of my friends were even aware of this fight happening. Usually I know a few people who will drive up for a fight, especially one in the afternoon on a long weekend. No one I know showed any interest in this at all. Really? That's surprising... I saw a lot of it here. What's also surprising is i'm not hearing as much radio advert for next week as I did for the thurman fight

well lets be honest only reason he is really known is because he is ducking kovalev, same reason ward is only known at this point because of froch lol. Both are irrelevant cowards who only want easy fights.

thats the best he will do really? how about when he fought cloud or dawson? pretty good numbers Those were not PBC productions and were properly promoted.

That's the best Stevenson will do as the lineal "champion" and WBC belt holder. Surprised they didn't throw it out onto the street or give it to the homeless people he was feeding to attend thats the best he will do really? how about when he fought cloud or dawson? pretty good numbers

Well Kovalev doesn't have a home base. His fights have mostly been in the other fighters backyard or in small arenas. If he and Stevenson fight it will 100% be held in Quebec. Could just as easily be held in Montreal. Probably get a better turn out as well. Being in the afternoon is no excuse for a poor turnout. We are used to having sporting events in the afternoon here in Montreal - Quebec also at one time when they had a hockey team. A Habs afternoon game will always be a complete sell out. We have had afternoon WWE shows that have been close to sell out events as well. No reason why a title unification fight in Montreal should not draw a decent crowd with half decent promotion. As for 1iota, they probably do not operate in Quebec due to our restrictive language laws where they would have to do business in French only.

He the A-Side doe Well Kovalev doesn't have a home base. His fights have mostly been in the other fighters backyard or in small arenas. If he and Stevenson fight it will 100% be held in Quebec.

Eh, it's an afternoon fight. Still Adonis has trended straight down after the Cloud fight. Still not horrible, that's what Lemieux used to average as a ME before he lost to Rubio.

I didn't check 1Iota's site... but they probably should've used it
