Casuals are stools for boxing fans to sit on!
I have. Canelo, Jacobs, Saunders or Eubank want to fight him so it's mathematically impossible to sell PPV's when these fighters COWARD their way out of fighting him. You know this already so tell me that's not laughable! Worst off, you play dumb by ignoring that GGG is already a star or he wouldn't have sold out Madison Square Garden, Stub Hub and most recently, the O2 arena in 11 minutes! Yes, yes, GGG a nobody by your estimations! Let that sink in and ask yourself how much more you should continue pointing out how big of a moron you are. If and when GGG fights Canelo, that fight will sell more than any other Canelo fight not including Mayweather's. Why? Because that will be the day ALL FANS including yourself, will see GGG's star power sell that fight even more. Don't believe me, Floyd couldn't sell a fraction, a fraction of what Oscar could sell BEFORE they fought. And once he did, well, Oscar could never ever match Floyd or Manny Pacquiao's live gate or PPV numbers. Let it sink in, EVER! Bro I feel like I'm picking on a casual. Never mind, I would be complimenting you by calling you a casual. Keep it up, I love exposing idiots like you!It's impossible Manny couldn't do it no other Boxer today could do it but now if Canelo doesn't sell out 80k there is a problem? Name a single boxer that is selling 80K tickets especially off the high ticket prices Canelo is moving. Come dude GGG couldn't sell 16K until the day of the fight against wade with CHEAPER tickets and free give aways. But that's a success but Canelo on the verge of selling 50K is a disappointment? like someone said he might have HALF as many people live in that stadium then GGG had PPV buys total. Think about that for a second LMAOComment

Canelo is a big star in Mexico,
The demographics in Texas couldnt be better for him,
In fact anything else then record attendace would be a major failure for Canelo.
it would be bad if Pacquioa outsld him on his "hometurf"
It would be far more impressive if he would sell out big places in europe where there arent many MexicansLast edited by EL_GRINGO; 09-16-2016, 11:12 AM.Comment

I don't believe the ticket sales are anything to be overly impressed with. This is by far the lowest ticket prices you'll find in yrs for an hbo or showtime promoted card. I've gone to local shows in NY held in theaters and recreational centers headlined by guys like Gabriel bracero that have had more expensive prices. Lastly, you can't take Oscar's numbers seriously. The guy is a born liar. After Canelo's last ppv he went on record and said it sold just under 600k in ppvs and the reality was that it was about 200k under that.They have ALREADY surpassed the amount of tickets sold that Manny Pacquiao did in his prime at this same building. And they are not done, have yet to get walk up ticket sales which are huge in boxing fights. They will get a boost in sales from walk ups but this fight will already set all time record for AT&T Stadium fights. The question is only how much do they shatter the record.
Oscar just doing his job and raising the bar higher since tickets are flying and exceeding expectations. 40k is all they needed to beat Manny and pass Canelo's own record for tickets sold. 70k is a stretch no way they hitting that. My guess is it easily cracks 50k though and there is no boxer today doing these kinds of numbers especially off these type of ticket prices.Comment

Nice try loser. Besides a small few nose bleeds tix at 40-50, the rest of tickets costs 85-100 or more. Sorry if you used to GGG having to give away free tix and having such cheap prices. LMAO

He doesn't need to go to Europe to sell. Why would he do that? He made Smith come to America even though Smith is the champ. Making something more than what it is is GGG as the unified champ going over to the UK to defend. People tried to make it out as he's expanding his global brand. Floyd never fought over there and he expanded his global brand. Canelo doesn't have to fight there and he's expanded his global brand. If you want to be an international superstar you have to fight in America. Why else would these foreigners come here to fight if the boxing scene in the UK is so great?
Floyd does has alott of fans here because there are alott of africans in europe who will all support a brother and rightly so,and he's also a million times better.
There are not alott of mexicans in europe its a complete different situation....
They should care because in europe we have the biggest market in the world 500 million people all with money.
plenty more to be made for someone who takes pride in selling more and calling himself a superstar.
But can you even be called a superstar if youre are only well known on 2 continents,Canelo is not famous or popular here,not hating just stating factsComment
