    This fight should have been in St. Louis, But Bradley ***** ass refuse to fight there. But he said he would fight Amir Khan in England?

    Wont fight in front of a sold out crowd in St. Louis, but will fight in front of a Sold out crowd in England?

      St Louis may have robbed him, although the UK may do that aswell.

      But a guranteed 600k upfront is something to obviously consider.

      It's up to the venue to help sell those seats or make a lost.

        Pontiac is not Detroit it is an outlying suburb like 20 or 30 miles away~ (that borders the nice suburbs)

        It was more a 'sh.it, look at America broadcast.' And me and my girlfriend just said 'crap, they don't have vegetables in Detroit.'.........lol. It was very vague. I don't really know anything about it.

        A lot of the news channels in Asia are hilarious they just praise their own economic growth and then cut to the British Prime Minister announcing the budget cut.

          Who is Marley and has his sources been right in the past? I seriously have my doubts that that is a correct amount. Every other day or so I check the tickets and see how much they sell and every day more and more tickets are sold. You would think the ones that aren't being sold would not be available to be bought. Just in the cheap section they are already 30 rows deep at 35 a row. That right there is over 1000 tickets. I just don't buy what this guy is saying but we'll see in a few weeks. They have been advertising a lot for it too.

            Bradley and Shaw really did a diservice to themselves and the match itself, by not having this in front of a sell out crowd. Which would have happen if they would have just gone to St. Louis.

            WHAT MAKES ME MAD IS THAT, BRADLEY says over and over he will go to england and fight khan.

            Why? is my question?

            Why go to England and not St. Louis?

              Fighting in England would get him international exposure unlike St. Louis. Still, this Detroit location was a **** idea.

                Holding a fight in Detriot in the middle of the winter is not to bright. Detriot economy is one of the worst in the US and either guy has a fan base their. On top of that their is nothing to do before or after the fight. Good luck packing the house

                  True, maybe if the 600k didn't come along then they would have.

                  Bradley never really showed respect to Alexander, even though he did duck him, I know Bradley should win.

                  Either way, it's sad that DK promotions is at this stage and Gary Shaw is pretty shiet anyway.

                  Shaw has good fighters and relies on HBO money, for example Chad Dawson can't sell shiet.

                    Lol, I am curious to hear this.

                    He needs to fight where the money is at, until he gets good team behind him, and he becomes draw.

                    Bhop did for years.
                    Even Zab Judah went to St. Louis to fight Spinks, and that fight was sold out!

                      If they sold 12k, then the average ticket would need to be 50 dollars in St Loius. It could be met, but they way they saw this most likely is, dang 600k up front, and if we sell 7K tickets at even 25 dollars, that's 175K.
