Saunders vs Andrade at the TD Garden in Boston

[_original_]

Odd choice of venue. At least it's not the dreaded Barclays.

Fight would have done well in Providence.. Vinny Paz, Peter Manfredo Jr. both pulled solid crowds there

Thank god someone watched the interview where he states this. Boxingscene businessmen critical of him trying something different than the typical...

its the typical race baiters around here. When Haymon did some shows (and gave away all the tickets) in smaller markets to try and build followings for his guys, they hailed him as a brilliant businessman who was looking "long term".

Hearn does it for his guy Andrade so of course they say he is clueless and doesnt know squat about business.

It never changes around here......lol

Hearn going for a big venue here makes little sense. Andrade has "zero profile" as Eddie would say. And obviously BJS is a complete unknown stateside. I mean I guess there is always time to try a new market, and Andrade is close to Boston so lets see. I'd be surprised if it does more than 6-7k. More like in the 4-5k range.

But who cares, hell of a match up! Can't wait for it, two quality operators.

Isnt Frank warren bjs promoter not hearn?

[MulaKO]

Hearn is Andrade ‘s promoter

[Shawnex]

The big question is: Will Canelo or Golovkin dare to fight Andrade when they have seen what he's gonna do to Saunders?

Hearn won the purse bid and dictates the entire show.

Well, if Andrade wins, then if he wants that fight it will have to be on HBO PPV. If GGG beats Alvarez, very little chance he fights off PPV from now on out. And we all know Alvarez is exclusively a PPV fighter.
