Anyone going to go to Alexander vs. Bradley in St. Louis? Do you think this fight will be a sell out and draw a good crowd in St. Louis?

Is it actually confirmed for the Lou? I heard St. Louie yesterday and know Don King has some serious pull (understatement of course), but something tells me we could still see an announcement change of venue...to Vegas namely. Mosley set the bar two years ago with this niche date in Staples Center that's squeezed in b/w the last playoff game and 8 days before the SuperBowl, so I would have to think that's more of a reason for Mandalay Bay or MGM to get this fight...considering the influx of people making their way to Sin City in advance of the SuperBowl. I mean, how does St. Louis compete with that other than a guaranteed 11,000 capacity at Chaifetz Arena on the campus of SLU? And why in the world would Bradley agree to this site when Vegas is a 40 minute puddle jump from LAX or Ontario CA airport or simply a 4 hour drive from Palm Springs? Just don't get it at all considering a date of January 29th which has absolutely no NFL football on and surely to drive in some serious network revenue and/or ppv dollars with a Vegas casino. I respect Bradley for going to the UK vs. Witter and fighting Holt in Montreal ( I believe), but St. Louis just makes little to no sense for me...from a Team Bradley perspective. -
If it's in St. Louis, I'm definitely going. Good fights in the Midwest are something of a rarity these days, =[.
I was there for the fight against Kotelnik.
I think it would be a sellout, the proposed stadium can only hold ~10,000, and 10k showed up for Devon's last fight.Comment
