Comments Thread For: Golovkin-Geale Tickets Not Selling as Well as Advertised

There are three-quarters of a million Puerto Ricans living in New York. There are less than twenty-five thousand Kazakhs living in the USA in total.

Congratulations to Cotto in his brilliant strategy of being born in Puerto Rico.

actually i think cotto isn't puerto rican, was born in the states. but what you say is correct

I know it's only Thursday but didn't Donaire-Rigo sell out at like 6k?

That was Radio City hall bruh.

[Bachavelli]

golovkin made the crucial mistake of not being born in puerto rico...

How big would andre ward be if he was mexican..i wonder..

In boxing you gotta be mexican or puerto rican.. Anything else and you have to do something extra to get the big fights.

I don't care how many tickets 3g sells doesn't change the fact that he would kick ure favorite fighters ass.lol

Interesting.

I got my tix

This is why Cotto would never fight him, he isn't a sell. Let him get some quality wins under his belt before you praise him like a boxing god.

What if Golovkin breaks his knees? Cotto will surely fight him then.

lol...reply of the day for sure...but yeah,i'm sure delving rodriguez wouldn't sell but cotto still fought him,let's not use this as an excuse

If this fight was in England, Germany or Australia I can see a lot more people attending.
Like people are saying in NY the public goes mostly to Miguel Cotto fights.

It's also crazy how a lot of people on this board seem to be happy with low ticket sales. What kind of boxing fans are these? Are they even boxing fans. If you consider yourself a boxing fan and never been to a boxing show, I don't think you're a boxing fan.

New York is one of boxing's biggest and most loyal markets. Not sure how you came to your conclusion.

That's what they say but if it were really true then the arena probably would have been close to selling out. Geale vs Golovkin and Jennings vs Perez are great fights on paper and should have attracted plenty of people from the New York tri-state area. This is a big night for boxing and I think that if they were truly fans of the sport then it would sell out without a problem.
