For 6/2 @SHOsports card attendance was 7,010. That's great! Problem is it SOLD 1,200 tix with WHOPPING 5,810 comps, as per Cali commission.

Normally id agree with that sentiment but im pretty sure that Ward vs Dawson will do about 12,000 tickets at oracle. Ive been to every Ward fight in oakland and he was doing about 7,000 . Im sure with HBOs help he will sell out

Ward in Oakland is different. I think the previous poster was referring to the fact that there was no Mexican/American fighter in the main event for a southern California card.
