???? 'boxing' is not the joke???... ads for the fight all over FB the last couple weeks...I don't know man, I have been working in alberta since april 4, but my buddies have told me they have heard radio spots on fan590 & tsn1050 everyday since it was announced.

do you follow boxingscene? this was reported a few weeks ago???

What are you on about? I've been here longer than any guy on the board, and yes I do follow boxing......

I live HERE 15min for ACC, on regular radio (people don't have sports radio on in the office) and even few times I went to lunch and my buddy had sports AM radio in the car I didn't hear anything about it...granted it was 30min worth of radio.

Nothing on the subway about the fight.

Facebook...I don't "Facebook" or twatter.

I guess I'm old school, I'm a professional that takes the subway to his job, hits the gym and goes home.

Oh and no one at the gym talking about the fight either.

As a Canadian, anything Stevenson I'm assuming is happening in Montreal. I knew the fight was going down, but despite being on this site at least 4x a week this is the first time I see that its happening here.

Even when I saw this post on BS I thought they were just doing some promo for the fight in Toronto, but its happening in Montreal.

And this is what I mean about boxing being a joke...The promotion is poor. No transit ads, nothing on the street.

So who do they get? The crowd that has time for Facebook? Not knocking on those on Facebook, but if you are 30+ have a family, live in the city and most likely take the train to work you had little chance of finding out about this thing.

I got a group chat with 12 guys, 4 big boxing fans and no one knew that the fight is going down here, and all of them live downtown or Scarborough.

Also I get ticket master emails all the time about **** going down in the city, any time any concert of consequence is on I get an email.....this thing, crickets.

I'm genuinely upset here, we don't get fights and I would have dropped a few hundred for some seats, but plans have already been made.

yea anyways I'm 47 , 48 in June so I am old school too, but FB is great for sports news, depending which pages you follow for your feeds...tickets were priced right too! 125 for golds is fair.

Out of curiosity, what are gold seats
In Montreal ringside would be $600
The lower section of the arena would be a good $240 to $300

at the ACC, the first 10 rows or so the seats are "platinum" color, then gold, then reds,...so to answer your question the golds are first level but 10 rows up from 'ice'/ floor level

Yes your right, it is! I was surprised. I have paid that for 2nd level at Bell Centre for fights before, the floors I think are more in the 500 range...perhaps Showtime has subsidized a huge portion of the purses? Maybe they just want to fill it up? As well there is no real 'name' co main. Underneath is all Montreal fighters, Zewski, Rivas, Bouchard, Volny, . Still nothing close to whatever is usually promoted in T.O. and looking very forward to this!

You should get a couple of good scraps from Zewski and Rivas
Watch how fast Rivas is for a heavyweight
Not sure if he’s going anywhere ( to small imo ) for today’s heavyweights
And yes don’t recall where I read it but the promoters will be happy just to sell tickets and get people in the acc
Not much time or room to promote the card with all the bullchit

Looking forward to this fight with a lot of anticipation.
