Comments Thread For: Abraham-Dirrell Lands in Detroit's Joe Louis Arena

[Hitman932]

Definitely the best card I have seen price wise for the quality of fighters on it.

I'm not sure it will sell out as they have very little time to promote it and sell two guys who are unknown to the casual fan.

I think it's a pretty safe bet that it will be more than the 8 or 9 thousand that Froch had in Nottingham. And the fans in The D don't **** around, they're all gonna be bat**** drunk and going bonkers, I don't think fighting Miranda in Florida will prepare AA for the hostility.

Not at all bro, this guy's going to be shouted at and called things hes probably never heard or thought anyone would say to him when he takes on Dirrell in Detroit... Homefield advantage will be huge for this fight!

I'm gonna hit Greektown and hopefully make a few hundred on the craps table and then spend it all on booze. I can't wait for this, Dirrell was a good friend of my college suitemates and I met him and his brother a couple times back when they were just up and coming amateurs.

I think it's awesome. And every mofo from detroit that posts here better be there.

Cuz I am making that trip most definitely.

I'm gonna be there. My boys are bailing, like the hoes they truly are so I'll be ringside for sure. We all should have a boxingscene meet up, no ****.

To you Detroit folks, how many people do you expect to turn out for this one? Will they get 20,000+ or no chance?

Well since it will be under a month for ticket sales and little promotion, I expect maybe 5000 people. If they had actually planned this out correctly I bet there could of been 10-15,000 people because they did make tickets very affordable.

Let's hope that they go out and promote the hell out of this fight locally. It would be nice to see a decent sized crowd at the Joe Louis Arena for boxing again.
