    Celebrities At Golovkin's Fight

    When you start having celebrities at your fights like Seinfeld, Louis CK and Dave Chapelle then you have broad appeal and bring more interest in boxing to the public.

    It doesn't matter what you think of a fighter, if they can draw celebrities to a fight then it means they are THE top attraction and draw in boxing and the way GGG has done this is by using AGGRESSION, POWER & GOING TO WAR. I remember Tiger Woods leaving in the middle of a Mayweather fight. The public don't care about the technical aspects of boxing, they want entertainment and if you're dull you're dull regardless of how awesome your puglistic skills are. If you're not going to try to stop your opponent in most of your fights and content to just win a decision then **** get the **** off our TV sets and stick your holier-than-thou smug boxing knowledge up your ass.

    Golovkin's fight, even his fight against Daniel Jacobs, didn't have the type of "celebrity draw" that Thurman-Garcia did.

    Heck, Jacobs-Quillin seemed to have similar "celebrity draw" to Golovkin-Jacobs, so what's your point?

    don't play yourself

        Are you serious? As far as big fights are concerned GGG didn't have much celebrity star power. Once again you guys trying way too hard to make GGG into some big draw. "Like oh 3 celebs showed up oh my god GGG is the biggest thing ever" LMAO

          That's part of the problem with the "Tripple G is the next big thing" narrative. If you keep having to point to reasons why he's the next big thing then maybe he's not. If he is, no one would have to question it.

              Good post.

              Golovkin is 35. Sorry GGG fans, he isn't and will never be the next big thing.

              Nothing wrong with that. People still watch him fight and that's what matters.

                    do you know most of the time celebs got free ticket right??

                    mayweather and arum at one time quoted they always give free tickets to celebs and famous athletes. the amount can reach to more than $500k worth of ticket price. they use these celebs to attract the millionaires and high rollers

                    paris hilton ticket for one of pac-marquez were free.
