I guess they got lots of tickets to spare. Shout out to the lil' homie Sciputo 2009 who undoubtedly will say how this fight is almost sold out. Here is Big Dan Rafael's story I just read:
Heavyweight world titleholder Deontay Wilder is scheduled to visit Los Angeles Fire Department Station 3 on Tuesday afternoon to present L.A. Fire Department Chief Ralph Terrazas with tickets to distribute to area first responders in recognition of those who battled the recent wild fires in Southern California. Wilder will defend his title against lineal champion Tyson Fury on Saturday at Staples Center in Los Angeles in the main event of the Showtime PPV card (9 p.m. ET).

I posted the direct quote of you arguing that Wilder-Fury might end up with 10000 people in the building, with most of those people having been given free tickets. You tried to disavow your own words, but everyone here saw what you wrote.
If you have a quote of me saying that Wilder-Fury would draw a million buys, share and post it here.
Spence-Ocampo was held at the Cowboys facility, was shown on Showtime, was shown in the UK (likely on BoxNation), and was likely picked up on Televisa for Mexico/Canal Space for Latin America, among other revenue.
If you honestly think that all that Errol Spence Jr saw on the fight was his disclosed purse, when his own company had a stake in the event, you're a fool.stop trying to change what you said. You said he was getting a percentage of the foreign tv which anyone who knows ANYTHING about boxing knows Haymon doesn't give his promoters a percentage. They get a flat fee.
Anyone who knows ANYTHING about boxing knows that Errol Spence's purse for that fight already had the foreign tv included in it and that he didn't get ANY percentage of the foreign tv.
You like to make stuff up. Like when you were trying to "calculate" what a bar would spend on a fight and "speculate" how much they would pay to bring in an extra cook and waitress for an extra 15 customers. You have zero business acumen and just talk out of your azzz. That is your main problem.
Moron alert. SciPUTO 2009 back up to changing his words, backtracking and moving the goal posts.
First off 3.5 mil doesnt go into their pocket. Any moron knows there are expenses they have to pay.
2nd we were talking about Man Down Promotions for the Carlos Ocampo fight. You were the dumb **** who said he got part of the foreign tv money for THAT fight when anyone who knows anything about boxing knows that his guaranteed purse had already taken foreign money into consideration.
Now crawl back under the rock from which you came from.

No one ever said that Wilder-Fury would do one million PPV buys in their first go on PPV, you bitter fool.
$3.5m going into the pocket of Wilder/Warren/DiBella/etc is still $3.5m and far more than you were openly ranting that the fight would draw, lol.
Spence-Garcia is the first PPV event for both fighters, and Spence Jr's company is going to be on the ****ing marquee.
If you're still dumb enough to argue that Man Down Promotions isn't going to see any upside on the fight, you're dumber than you've already shown yourself to be.Moron alert. SciPUTO 2009 back up to changing his words, backtracking and moving the goal posts.

yup. Not that big of a gate. That includes all the giveaways the brokers couldn’t dump too. Suck on dat doe.
Being they couldn’t get even half way to the 1,000,000 ppv buys u were calculating and trying to configure nownunare convinced a 75-25 purse for AJ’s favor is right for Wilder. Good work.
Next u will go back to lying about how spence’s promotional company is getting foreign tv rights on top of his purse because your too ignorant to know that revenue stream was already figured into his purse.

Suck on that too.
So severely reduced prices to exactly what? If you had to guess, what was the live gate on this fight?
Prices were crazy for this fight. Reducing them is still more than the regular ticket price for other fights.
You could sell it however you want, but the fight was definitely a success. Ever 17k in the arena which is the most for a fight in Staples Center since what, DLH vs Mosley I?never said it wasn’t a success.
You don’t need to go that far back. Margarito Mosley has the record for highest attendance at Staples
Easy and wouldn’t be the first time. Giveaways and severely reduced ticket prices

i said another 15k sold. Pbc is the master of papering. Look no farther than Barclays.
3000? Giveaways? Lol. Try doubling that total.
6,000 tickets given away? L-O-L.........
When the commission posts the gate receipts for the fight, stand tall and hold your L.
Played yourself

I never said that Wilder-Fury was going to do a million PPV buys; just that Eddie Hearn has stated that that was the only way that Wilder would get a 50/50 share on the Joshua fight. Nice try, though.
17600 were in attendance at Staples Center, and even if you comped 3000 tickets (I doubt that many were even given away), you'd still end up with nearly 15000 tickets sold, after all that guy flapping you didn't about the event only selling maybe 10000 tickets.
Stand by what you said.i said another 15k sold. Pbc is the master of papering. Look no farther than Barclays.

You are the only one lying. I can't wait till they release the ppv numbers as you were calculating them at 1,000,000 buys LMAAAAOOOOO

Are you really going to keep trying to lie about what you said?

with over 5000 giveaways. Suck on that. You are very good at it. LMAAAOOOOO. I told you less than 15k sold and over 5k giveaways. I was prove right as usual.
I said 5k giveaways. No way it sells 15000 tickets. It’s not even at 10k yet two days before the fight lmao
There is zero promotion here in LA. Don’t you get that?
Are you really going to keep trying to lie about what you said?
Just under 18000 in attendance according to Iole (https://www.yahoo.com/sports/deontay-wilder-retains-wbc-heavyweight-title-split-decision-draw-vs-tyson-fury-061353693.html)
