Comments Thread For: Canelo vs. Golovkin is Sold Out!

like the superbowl and other major events as soon as they go on sale secondary outlets and scalpers scoop up most of the tickets. Then resell the tickets at a markup price. Very few fans pay the actual ticket price for superbowl tickets. You pay what stubhub and other sites charge or have to be very lucky to get a ticket before they are ravished by scalpers.

yeah but its not just independent scalpers...it is often the actual promoters who sell tickets for double face value on the secondary market for huge events like this.

if they cared about fans they would not have made canelo vs chavez bum jr

When is the last time Floyd turned down all the money in Vegas and instead fought at Cowboys stadium or any football arena so more fans have access to come? You let me know clown. It's about money every fighter who has the option to make huge amount of money fighting in Vegas or make just half by offering cheaper tickets in a bigger stadium.

And you talking about fighting bums? Floyd last fight was against bum berto and bum non boxer McGregor. Chavez/GGG > Berto/Mcgregor but I don't hear you saying a peep about Floyd making purely money fights not caring about "fans".

Biggest fight of the year hands down. Could even be FOTY.
Can't wait to see the hype built up when it's just one week away.
People are so hungry with one of these once in a lifetime fights.
I'm neither a rabid fan of these fighters, couldn't care less about their ducking issues.
Important thing is it's happening. That's all that matters.

140 is too low man lol! Im guessing 500k to 700k!

Lol, Bruh, my post is a purposely very sarcastic post. I hope yours is too.

It would have been really interesting to see if Canelo/GGG would have sold out Cowboys Stadium (Canelo vs. Liam Smith has the boxing record there at 51,000+). Tickets would have been a heck of a lot cheaper, too.

I'm hoping to find a ticket at T Mobile for less than $1,000. This is a bucket list thing for me, but tickets are already crazy expensive, so it's not looking good for me making the fight.

Wow! This is shocking news! I wasn't expecting this.

Golovkin vs Canelo Sold Out, hell nah, that's impossible!

I would have sworn this fight would sell around the same 6,000 tickets as Ward-Kovalev 2.

Well, they may have lucked out selling tickets at the gate, but I'm extremely confident this fight does no more than 140,000 PPV buys. No way, this fight is in no way a draw.

Haha you must really hate ggg if you think the number is going to be that low. He did over 1mil buys against Chavez jnr. Are you honestly telling me you think Chavez jnr drew 860,000 buys? Or did I completely miss the sarcasm...just saw your later post..I did completely miss the sarcasm lol

The sooner they open that stadium in Vegas the better. That way we get the best of both worlds

when is the last time floyd turned down all the money in vegas and instead fought at cowboys stadium or any football arena so more fans have access to come? You let me know clown.

even that bum berto is a 2 time champion which that bum chavez bum jr cant even dream of becoming mr cry baby lmfao! Mayweather isnt mexican and doesnt have millions mexican fans in texas dummy! I dont care where canelo fights im just replying to someones comment! Oscar pretends to care about boxing fans which is bullcrap and you and i both know it! I dont fall for crackhead politicians fake smiles like some groupies....

lol, bruh, my post is a purposely very sarcastic post. I hope yours is too.

im being serious dude lol! This fight has gotten a lot of mention in main stream media to do any less than that! Ggg isnt as famous as chavez so thats why im guessing around 500-700k! I would also not be surprised if it did 1 million! But if it flops and does like 300k i wont be shoked at that either!
