    So you can scam investors and sponsors + other people. By saying how successful your events are + getting cheaper venue prices by saying oh look how much gate brought in plus all the booze sold

      who cares how they count it
      point is its counted and the fighters make their money
      who cares if they get bums off the blvd to fill the seat?
      point is it will be packed and the tickets are coutned as sold
      I care because this is all part of the sport

      people tend to forget this is how they make their living so while I may be a fan first and foremost I also still cover the sport and still work with fighters within the sport

        but that's illegal I'm pretty sure who ever is involved could get jail time for fraud

                Thanks for the response
                but like I said I find it kinda shady when you use this fight to talk about it but when BUM BUM is fighting or Margs you never have nothing to say about that

                you youself said this happens all the time but you wont mention it during the week leading up to cotto margs II

                If you werent bias you would talk about it when margs fights and pac too
                you make it sound like this only happens with GBP fights and Floyd

                If you are a fan of the sport where is the outrage from you or at the very least concern as a fan when Arum pulls his crap with sham fights for pac
                or is it ok because your boy Margs got a shot at a huge payday and a belt that netiher he nor manny deserved?

                  This fight will have 13,000 tickets..and about 10-11 million dollars.
                  This right here.

                  *******s care a lot about this fight not selling out. The thing is, it doesn't have to sell out when it's going to make more money than any other sellout this year, at gate revenue. Forget about PPV numbers, it's gonna crush Pac-Marquez III.

                  It's not that hard selling out a fight with tickets as cheap as they had it. It is for Mexicans and Pinoys afterall.

                      so (I know you know what this means but I gotta explain it)

                      what that means is that if say GBP reports to NSAC that 15k tickets sold in essence GB could have paid the tariff on those 15k tickets and counted them as sold and then.........everyone.....count that as gate revenue
                      Ya reckon theyre also going to do that for the over 1 million ppv buys this bout wilo do?
