    its a no brain canelo has the bigger fan base than broner, like it or not...
    I never said Broner had the bigger fan base. The haters drive Broners numbers. Canelos highly anticipated fight against Trout did about 200,000 less views than Broners cherry pick fight with Paulie. Why is that?

      i searched for every price online, and even called. i wanted two 1,000 dollar tickets if i could get them, but i searched for them all.

      you were the person i was talking about who was lucky enough to get tickets.


      ticket brokers buy everything immediately. that's what allows them to drive the price so high. if they didn't buy everything you wouldn't be talking about selling your ticket for 8500 bucks. right now the secondary market is very high. it will go down before the fight, and then go back up again in the final couple of weeks preceding the fight. i spoke with somebody at AMEX and he explained the process to me, but this was unfortunately after the fact.

        I haven't had this real "Mega fight feel" since.....shit I don't know Mayweather-Mosley. This fight feels even bigger than that one.

          Oh I'm not selling my ticket I was looking at going rate for it now; it was like playing a slot machine I kept trying different combinations and got lucky enough to get thru the process. I had 3 tickets in my cart before i was able to buy one. When your in Vegas holla at me for the weigh in.

              the fact that we are having this conversation about a young kid tells you something
              Yes that his fanbase is already talking nonsense.

                  mixed. floyd will bring in some rich fans but Canelo is backed by the Mexican TV magnate that is like #1 or #2 rivhest in the world. He may have bought the whole arena for all we know. Not like its gonna hurt his pockets.
