    I agree but then why is this fight in LA instead of on the East Coast where Garcia fan base is located? It's just a bad look for TV especially when you trying to bring in new casual fans. Makes it look like an amateur event when the arena so empty. Either put these fights in smaller arenas, load the card up with great fights so fans come early, or move it to another city that will show up early.

      Strange purses really. If Guerrero is valued at 1.2, shouldn't Garcia be making closer to 2 mil? Kinda like Bradley-Rios there's a clear A-side, B-side. Otherwise, good payday for Robert.

      I would've expected better paydays for Vazquez and Martinez. Maybe I'm influenced by the impression that Haymon fighters are paid well, but Martinez seems lacking after fights with Guerrero and Alexander.

      Kinda surprised Lomachenko got that much for Koaischa, especially as the undercard fighter, but good payday for him.

        It sounds like reasonable amounts for Garcia and Guerrero. I am surprised Guerrero got almost as much as Garcia but he earned with his great effort.

          Tweeting pics of the undercard crowd before the televised portion began. Notice he didn't tweet pics once the main event started. I don't understand why he's so invested in PBC failing? He has straight up admitted he has a problem with PBC.

                someone mentioned that he said only 3K tickets were sold. I sincerely hope not. I feel like he get his info on Mayweather/PBC from their competitors and assumes it's true even though it's wrong most of the time.

                  It's public information so it'll come out in a couple of days. Anybody can email these state commissions for that type of info.

                    For perspective

                    Bradley 1.9 mil
                    Rios $800 K
                    Lomachenko's $750K

                    Swift got 1.5 Milli and Broner gets 4 or 5 Milli fights is crazy to me.. Maybe that's why you didn't hear (I wanna thank Al Haymon) at the post fight.

                      18,000+ is the max for basketball. Put in a boxing ring and add more seats and that number increases. 66% full is not a good look.
