I like Matthyse, but I hope all of you supporters stop dogging Tim Bradley with this BS can't sell tickets excuse as to why he doesn't deserve certain fights.

Lol at those Matthysse fans that wanted Judah vs Garcia cancelled. The Barclay center will hold 17000 minimun. The real question is why is Matthysse fighting in Vegas? He needs to be fighting in NY, LA, or DC where the Argentine fanbase can come out and support their own.

I'm not sure he needs to be fighting in the US at all.

The moneys in the US but he needs to be marketed better. GBP havent done Matthysse any favors. They havent totally screwed him but the couldve done a lot more.

If it didn't require plane tickets I'd go to every Matthysse fight.

I'm clinging onto the tiny shred of hope that he comes to Britain one time.

Maybe to eventually clash with Khan or Brook?

That's a very good average ticket price, especially for such a mediocre match up

[New England]

if matthysse were mexican (or american, for that matter,) he'd be a huge star.


he's in a rough spot.

115 k in tickets is not going to get you into a big fight, especially when you are good.

Matthyse would make a great B side like Martinez makes a great a B side. Gamboa can't sell **** as an A-side either, but the ticket sales for Rios vs Gamboa were great.
