Comments Thread For: Despite Turki Alalshikh's claim, Aug. 3 show was sellout in name only

[Elheath]

Serious question but does whether or not a card sold out or not actually matter that much to fans? That it was overpriced is a sad thing but as long as the fight occurred it means those who were willing to pay for it all got what they wanted, and those who didn't deem the ticket worthy either watched it via DAZN or some other illegal way anyway.

The only thing that might care is Crawford's ego but in the end he got the same amount of money anyway so minor details if you ask me.

Turk got so much money it probably doesn't matter much. They even did a car and trip giveaway along with having Eminem as a concert

Canelo has not sold out a fight since GGG3- Davis and Garcia was a disaster -Garcia and Haney a disaster and Crawford Spence a disaster

Moral victory for some

We do not know whether the source of this article is legitimate. It seems there are a lot of people with an axe to grind. I am not saying this is not true, but I learned a long time ago not to believe something just because it is written on internet. People lie to suit their own purposes. All I can say I really enjoyed the card and it was a first time in a long time I was looking forward to multiple events on the card, not just the main event. In that respect, the show did not disappoint.

Vergil vs Bohachuk was more entertaining than the whole event. It was still sponsored by Mr Turki and not a PPV.

Mr Turki should focus on Mexico vs Eastern Euros specially Ukraine for Entertaining fights.

Vergil vs Bohachuk possible FOYT
Mungia vs Derevyanchenko was FOYT
Navarette vs Denys competitive, but sloppy.
Guys who are willing to FIGHT, not just dance around playing a game a tag and called it sweet science.
Fans want to see people beat the fk up, otherwise they would be watching Fencing.

It's nothing compare to Riyahd temp.

I believe they got their air conditioning thing down pat.

They probably assume it was nice weather compare to 120 degrees in the desert, but for people of LA 85 degrees is the worst.
