    Nostalgia only goes so far, tbh
    Have you been to a fight at Barclay? If so, how are the cheaper seats as far as viewing the ring? I'm gonna try to get to a summer show down there but I'm not paying top $ most likely

      No good comes out of this fight not selling well IMO.

      I am going to order it and have people over as usual.
      I don't think it's such a bad thing if this fight doesn't sell so well. Remember, Jacobs was holding out because he wanted $X to fight GGG when he was happy to accept 3 times less to fight much lesser opponents for no titles. In response K2 decided that in order to secure the fight and meet Danny's requests, they'd increase the ticket prices to try to cover the costs.

      Having this fight sell out only encourages more fighters to hold out for that big payday and force fans to pay higher prices for fights that aren't total mismatches.

      While I am glad that this fight has been made, it shouldn't concern fans that this fight hasn't sold out, that is the concern of the promoters who decided to set the ticket prices at that level.

        Great point this fight being so close to the date for Garcia/Thurman is a factor. Thurman/Garcia is the better fight in ever manner and if you saved up your money for just one of these fights it's a no brainer which one you dropping it on.

          I think I paid some where between 60-80 for Jacobs/quillin and those seats were pretty damn good

            After GGG ices him, ya'll gonna finally put respeK on his name? Or say he was Pirog's leftovers.

              This is what happens when fighters like Jacobs asks for a fight purse he's just not worth. The ticket prices have to go up.

                  Wait, there's a ton of tickets left two weeks from the fight? I thought you guys said GGG was a star?
