Canelo vs Trout upgraded to 65k stadium?

[croz]

I heard they've sold 31k tickets and they're going to expand the seats. The Alamodome dome holds 65k seats. At this rate it already looks set to top 40k at the least making it the first true stadium event in the US since Pac-Margarito.

[Jloro]

Awesome. Can't wait for this fight.

[Scarcaztic]

DAMN! They sold 31k already!?

The crowds gonna look so sick for this fight.

BTW, its called the Alamodome

Canelois being promoted horribly.

He is. He has a huge in built fan base but GB are doing a lousy job getting exposure for him. Canelo himself and his Mexican exposure are what sell, GB is pretty much sitting back and milking it.

One fight on CBS, this fight on the Mayweather PPV, or a fight like Trout-Canelo on regular HBO would be bring in unfathomable exposure. But instead they jump to the smallest available network which will probably bring in ratings in-line with good HBO numbers. I think it'll do 1.5-1.7 million viewers on Showtime. Probably 2.7 million on HBO.

The Alabama dome? Hahaha

Well they are selling some of the tickets for 10 bucks a pop (which is a good thing) so there's no reason this shouldn't sell big.
