    Pre-sale tickets for the superfight between Joe Calzaghe and Roy Jones Jnr, set for Nov 8 at Madison Square Garden, New York, have broken the record for the venue, according to John Wirt, CEO of Square Ring.

    400k?

      I was going to attend this one myself, but the tickets are unforgivably high priced. I will have to go with Sopcast ONE MO' TIME!

      Only problem is that everyone will probably be using it and it will refresh every 3 seconds.

          exactly the point i was gonna make! i really dont see this matchup at this point of Jones career to be a huge deal fighting against Calzaghe but if it helps the sports of boxing in promotion and interest then im glad this fight is happening!

                RJJ did 610k with Ruiz?
                i thought it was a flop, because roy never attended the press conferences and media workouts... didnt find out the PPV stats though
