We know what the announced attendance was, and we have an idea what the gate was, but you're a bumbling idiot if you choose to continue to insist that K2 did not comp one ticket on either of Golovkin's MSG fights.

Still, let's do the dance here; Cotto-Margarito 2 is a fight that we know the numbers for (~17,900 tickets sold, a gate that was just over $3m, priced $600-$50) and, in confirming what I've just written, I also found some of the numbers from Cotto-Martinez (~$4.7m gate, $750-$50, unsure of the tickets sold), both fights held at MSG.
Golovkin-Jacobs had a ticket price strata of $1000-$100. Again, the numbers don't make sense, which is likely why nothing ever gets fully confirmed by anyone but Loeffler.
Lance Pugmire is a quality writer; if he's putting his name behind it, I'm fairly certain that he's done the legwork to confirm the info as best as possible. The gate for Golovkin-Jacobs was likely $3.7m (NYSAC didn't put anything out formally, but will stand on Pugmire's reputation).
Assuming the gate is accurate, there's no way that 20k tickets were sold $1000-$100; with the Cotto fights at the same building as reference, the actual tickets sold may be half what Loeffler has been pushing.
Spin it however you want, but remember that people will check
The numbers don't add up _Maxi.

You just quoted a post that says that the 3.7 millions gate doesn't make sense. How do you justify that? And you claimed it was pure ownage? you look like a ****** teenager.

He's saying the claim of 20k paid tickets doesn't make sense. Golovkin-Jacobs tickets were priced higher but the gate made less than Cotto-Martinez.

is going to dissapoint on PPV also. Connor is a nice draw but this is not going to do great numbers. im betting it does over 3 million but not the pacquio fight numbers they are expecting
