Not sure if this is a good fight for NY. Neither fighter is popular in NY and I don't even think they're popular enough in their home countries for people to want to make the trip to NY to watch them.

NY will show up for a good card. I was at the Spence fight recently and it was pretty full for a guy getting his 1st main event. Plus they said they may add Jacobs to the card and ha has a lot of fans in Brooklyn too (I also went to that fight and it had a big crowd).

These are videos from my last 2 times going so you can see what kind of crowds they got.

Add to that Thurman Porter is almost sold out and the seat I got for the Spence fight cost almost twice as much for Thurman vs Porter, and neither guy has fought there before. Frampton will have some fans fly over to NY for this fight, they can plan a trip around it. The PBC is stacking it's cards now with at least 2-3 big names on a card. Fans will support this especially if the ticket prices are right.

I think you would be surprised how many would go all the way to NY to see Frampton. He's massively supported in Northern Ireland.

Bring on the boxing hooligans to NYC.

Are you ******ed? Frampton has a COUNTRY behind him. He has insane support. Half of Northern Ireland will be in New York, just like they took over Manchester when he beat Quigg.
