I think 400k, ticket sales have been pretty bad. Hatton-Malignaggi isn't doing great either.
How many buys for Calzaghe-Jones?

Big part of the reason ticket sales are slow is because the prices are so high.
I'd say it's going to do a little over 400K.Comment

Last row seats are priced at $150, or around 130 Euros. That's ridiculous. I got tixx for the Cotto-Judah fight at $50 (back).
The promotion for this fight has been everywhere, from radio to tv to papers. Even bigger is 24/7 of course. People I know outside of boxing are even talking about it. Roy is still a big name fighter that draws in a wide number of people. People want to know if Jones can "turn bakc the clock". I don't think people will make the same mistake as missing the Hopkins fight.
The under card is underrated also. Emanuel Augustus - Frankie Figueroua is a compelling fight, as is the opportunity to see Salita.
I say it does better then 500k, I see a 600-750 number.Last edited by MikeBrew328; 11-08-2008, 12:42 AM.Comment
