      That makes the average ticket price around $344. Way overpriced.

            real boxing fans wont pay to watch ward fight. and who can blame them? its going to be ugly, boring, lots of fouls and you know you are going to get a pantomime ending. How can it be considered 'sport' when only one guy is allowed to win? its basically scripted entertainment.

                  Pretty sure Golovkins highest gate is around $2 million too.

                  Would have been full at Golovkin prices.

                    Golovkin Jacobs Made More than 3.5 millions. Golovkin Lemieux Made More than 2. Golovkin Brook More than 2 aswell.
