Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua vs. Oleksandr Usyk Tickets Sell Out in 24 Hours

[filup79]

Fans did not buy these tickets, bots did. Would love to be proven wrong. We will see these tickets resold by third party companies.

It's pretty obvious. Ticket brokers always buy a bunch a tickets and resell them on their sites. Look up tix for that fight and you'll find ticket brokers like stub hub selling them

Well this is the question. Pacquio is an established all time great with a massive audience in the Phillipines and across asia. His tickets don't sell out in 24 hours. And thats a fight between some of the biggest names in boxing. Yet I'm meant to believe this fight against Usyk (who no one rates for some reason) is selling out in 24 hours???



...nah.

location matters my friend. Think about that. Since becoming who he is Pac hasn’t fought in the Philippines. If Pac was fighting in the Philippines I’d bet my life savings he could sell out a 70k seat stadium in less than 24hrs.

Look where Joshua and Usyk are fighting. It’s the same thing. Joshua does numbers on his side of the pond. Do I think they could do those numbers here in the US? Absolutely not. My point is, no American is doing that here in the US. (Pac and Fury were bad examples since they aren’t American)

Put Spence & Bud for undisputed in a 70k stadium anywhere in the US at the same ticket prices of a Joshua fight in the UK and I guarantee that they don’t sell out let alone sell out in 24hrs. Same goes for Wilder, and any other popular active American fighter here.

This is not the case either. Boxing is very much a sport of high rollers in America, doesn't necessarily mean there aren't viewers. There is really no reason to stage fights in stadiums when you can do them in the MGM Grand and charge 5k a pop. Hence why you have Mayweather fights making ****** money on gate revenue...**** like $50m.

the last fight mayweather had against a pro bombed at ppv and also at the arena.....the days of big events in America are pretty much gone Except for a biggie every 7 years or if they are canelo Alvarez.
deluded once again I see

You’ll never get these nationalist zealots to realise this. I don’t even know why the USA was even mentioned m, especially in the early comments. Out of nowhere some folks started mentioning “the world doesn’t revolve around the USA”, “no one cares about wilder” blah blah blah…I swear there are some real low self esteem individuals around

[joe strong]

Like him or not 70000 tickets in 24 hrs…. Wilder & Fury can only dream of selling that…

Except in the States where the bots block ticket sales apparently. If a third party company did buy any of these they didn't do it for charity and think they resell at higher prices.

US fights just look empty.

Marketed excellently to casual fans and not amazing?

Why aren’t the other boxers on Matchroom as big since it’s the marketing? And who’s better than him in the division?

DaDUMMYneutral the covert Wilder fan and Fury ddd1ck rider, like I always told you, you’re a transparent muppet. LMAOOO

Lol I forgot about you, I'm a big Joshua fan, your problem is you are a big fan boy. Too busy cracking off to his training videos to bring a bit of honesty or reality to your thoughts.

[Nash out]

It's good that Joshua has to earn his shot at Tyson Fury. Nash out.

[DougalDylan]

Most jiongo istic country in the world even had the US anthem at a Brit vs a Mexican never seen that outside the USA. USA USA every sporting event ever heard UK UK at a fight nah never happen

This guy even has United States in his icon .. sad just sad

LMAOOO. Mad man.

You never answered my question. If it’s the marketing, why aren’t all the other boxers ever signed by Matchroom a quarter as big as Josh? At least one should be a quarter as big since you think it’s marketing.

Also, if he’s not an amazing boxer, who is better than him in the division? And list 5 boxers that are amazing according to you.

Failure to answer these questions would show you’re a muppet. LMAOOO.
