      For the record, I have not discredited Andre Ward. But what good is being talented if no one wants to see you fight?

      Ward's been fighting 12 years and he is still drawing garbage crowds to see him fight live in the US.

      3 years ago fight fans had barely heard of GGG. How is it that he is now selling out places on both coast like MSG and the Forum in L.A.?

        His tickets were like $10 at the Forum. And even those two being "sold out" didn't seem to help his PPV sales. 97k? Not a good look.

          If alts could buy tickets Ward would be a hot seller.

          Should be some good value on seats next week.

            He's at least 50%.

            I know you guys wish he were white so you could "claim" him for sick reasons but it ain't happening. Pacquiao's Filipino fans have more in common with him than you do.
            yea and the reason ward is a good fighter it is the 70% white in him if you want to split hairs I will do it also

              Damn Too $hort is still performing, nothing like pimping just let it roll.

              Ward is boring, concert could hurt sales.

                I was at the Forum and YDKSAB if you truly believe tickets were going for $10.

                Secondly, 97K PPV buys isn't all that bad conaidering it was his first time headlining a PPV. When was the last time Ward headlined a PPV?

                And those PPV numbers don't necessarily mean that GGG-Lemieux didn't make a profit.

                Remember that a promotion with 50,000 buys can be much more profitable than one that comes close to a million buys. It just depends on how much the fighters are guaranteed.

                You seem to be under the impression that GGG is promoting himself. Again, YDKSAB.
