PAVLIK-LOCKETT ticket sales = Very poor

lol you honestly dont think the other guys were draws? esp trinidad. and he fought quartey in his hometown. either way bob arum wont risk pavliks record against wright yet. all the guys he wants pavlik to fight except for calzaghe are no name chumps.idk why people dont think Winky is a draw. He drew a big crowd to watch him fight Quartey.
He drew almost all 10,000 of the fans that watched him fight B-hop.
He sold out the place with Trinidad. Got a big crowd on hand against Taylor.
And he never dips below 300,000 buys.
AFter he beat Trinidad, he was a big name in the sport for a while. It wore off, and its probably gone now after his massive layoff, but he's a pretty decent draw stillComment

its not up to him. Arum feels that these fights will build his fanbase.
pavlik and his trainers want Calzaghe and Abraham, and right now Arum is currently trying to set up a PAVLIK-CALZAGHE fight for November, as it appears that Jones may have priced himself outComment

of coarse the other guys were draws, except Hopkins and Quartey. But considering TAYLOR-SPINKS drew almost no crowd at all, and Trinidad-Jones drew 10,000, it does take a name for the fans to come out to see these guys.
Winky was a name, and pretty big one at the times he fought those guysComment

i agree he was a name but hes about as big with fans as hopkins. and taylor was just coming off the hopkins wins when he fought wright. when taylor fought spinks he was coming off very bad wins. most of the fans in ac when he fought pavlik were people from ohio.Comment
