Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Venue Holds 100K, We Expect Sell Out For Canelo-Smith

[bigdunny1]

Wtf is this coke head talking about lol..canelo's fight with Khan never sold out in Vegas ...and now he's fighting a boxer who is less known than Khan in a much larger venue , dropping down to a lower weight and being ridiculed by fans all over the world and disowned by his fello country men for ducking out of the golovkin fight and yet Hoya looks up and says he expects a 100k sellout....f@ck me oscar must have progressed from pablos finest to Walter Whites home made meth...beam up me Scottie lol

Tickets sales for the the Khan fight drew well over 7m in live gate. The career high for GGG was 2m against Lemiuex. Floyd doesn't even technically sell out all his tickets in Vegas when he fights. The goal in Vegas is not to sell out but you charge ridiculous prices for each ticket and generate the largest live gate figure you can and try and draw high rollers to the casinos. This fight won't be in vegas and won't have vegas prices so it will obviously sell far more overall tickets then Khan fight did. Some people are just plain ****** on how this works. When Canelo fought Trout and Kirkland in huge arenas outside of vegas he drew like 40k. He can easily surpass that by fighting in a highly touted venu like Cowboys Stadium. Manny drew 50k for Clottey and 40k for Margarito in that stadium. I think Canelo beats both.

50 dollars.. but you will be lucky to get em at the price, ticketmaster charges around extra 15 if they are still available, resellers will double the price, at least thats the way it was for the fight at the alamodome..

100K seating means that there will be a lot of cheap seats. i'm really not expecting the kind of demand for this fight that will lead to a large amount of tickets being resold and gouged. that's a lot of tickets.


but starting at 50 you may be right. we shall see.

There will be plenty of seats priced between $5-50 so all the Canelo fans can come cheer. Good for them. This is the reason I thought Mikey Garcia should go to GBP instead of TMT/PBC.

I will not be buying or watching.

Steve Kim was talking about this the other day & he was saying they were going to close in the seating or whatever its called which would limit the seats to 40,000. And with $40 being the cheap seats he doesn't expect them to sell that out & Kim is all up GBP's ass so if anyone in the media was gonna oversell this fight it'd be him.

His Golovkin love means more to him than his GB love.

Haymon has dozens of fights for him. GB has Orozco and Linares.
