    Yeah, that makes zero cents. I've also wondered why certain cities never have big fights (Chicago being my biggest gripe, seeing as it's the 3rd biggest city in America and I live here lol)

I think big boxing events could do well there for now if there's not going to be any boxing shows in NY. Jacobs/Mora might've been better off there than at the Cosmo in Vegas. Throw some Polish guys on the card like Sulecki, Szpilka, Glowaki, Wlodarczyk & Fonfara and you're all set.
      Haymon put that fight in Vegas?

      Smh, WTF is this guy doing, no wonder he can't build stars..

      I agree with the rest of what you said though. With ny dead, jersey will be the logical choice, for whatever reason promoters don't seem to care for Philly.

        You guys have a monopoly on the polish fighters though....

          Philly kills fights b/c it has a same-day weigh-in policy.

            Well, the 1st fight was interesting.

              Ironically, I recently pondered about the amount of NY cards in the past few years; it felt like NY was getting spoiled. Now it seems that the resurgence will be coming to an end.

                I'm pretty sure we all knew Jacobs would fight Mora again. They need to setup a tournament when Golovkin eventually leaves the division. I'm tired of watching guys like Lemieux and Stevens get snubbed by Jacobs, Quillin, Saunders.

                      I'm gonna go out on a limb and say this sells out in a slightly slower manner than GGG-Brook lol.
