Leonard Ellerbe schooling UK casuals

[Sparked_26]

Great for British Boxing that the fights are here.

But of course Brits would travel to go out there.

We've been staying up until 5 a.m. for years though. So I think even if AJ did go out there his star is that high now that they'd have to change the start time to suit a British audience.

Has that ever happened?

That would never happen. People on the East Coast complain the Main Event in Vegas doesn't start until 11:30-12:00am.

Vegas gate money for a big fight is far more than even the UK stadium fights, even with 4x less capacity. It's just a fact.

Joshua v Wilder in Vegas would have a very big gate receipt, i'm sure.

Doubt it happens.

USA Networks, sponsors and advertisers will want it at prime time.

I think that's a massive issue then.

Hatton was popular but Joshua is stratospheric.

OK name me the highest Vegas gate for two fighters that have never been on US PPV.

73,000 homeless people could afford to attend a Joshua fight yet they beating Vegas on the gate?

That dude f#cking nuts. I've become more of a fan of Ellerbe lately as a pure promoter instead of Floyd's sock puppet or w/e he used to be.

But Joshua seemed to say he wants to stay in the UK so fair play to him. And Wilder should be like w/e lets go cuz if Parker legit made $18M tonight like some were saying than Wilder should be getting $20M+.

The tickets were around the same price as Wilder-Ortiz. That had an 12k attendance. Yes they're beating Joshua-Wilder in Vegas. Because Joshua-Wilder aren't draws in America.

Wilder-Ortiz was in New York not Vegas. So you're saying a Joshua fight in the UK is priced the same as a Wilder fight in New York. Thanks for proving the point

Ok the fight is in the USA but what's holding the fight all we need is for Wilder to agree to his 32% and if AJ doesn't take the fight his team is scare

Why should Wilder accept 32% if they gave Parker 40%

If they really offered 32% to Wilder then it is obvious.....ducking and aint going to happen this fight!!!!
