    If there was no demand, they wouldn't be (according to you) adding more sections.

    Professional scalpers are largely staying away from this fight because when a fight is priced this high, it's largely scalper proof. The only real profit is in the upper deck. Not a lot of profit to be made on tickets already priced at 1 or 2 thousand dollars on this fight. This fight was priced to keep the scalpers away.
    Priced to keep the scalpers away? FFS you're deluded. This fight is a flop. 6 weeks out and they're trying to sell tickets at half price. Closer to the fight the 2nd hand market tickets are going to bomb. The tickets sold are Brits and scalpers not US boxing fans. They held back sections. I looked on the site and not 1 ticket in the sections they released a few days ago has sold. Fans aren't interest in the Alabama slapper. Roll up on fight night for a free seat as they paper the arena.

      First of all, that third party seller may have bought their tickets before prices in that section were increased. Whether scalpers take a bath is of no concern to Staples. There are only 1,800 tickets left, which for an arena of this size, with insanely high prices, and the fight six weeks away, means this show is selling very well.

      Wilder & Fury get paid the same whether the fight sells 1 ticket or 21,000 tickets.

      But it's ludicrous to say the fight isn't selling well when it's still a month and a half away ans there are less than 2,000 tickets left.

        Again. You don't know how many tickets are left.

        It does matter when tards like you are saying Wilder is a draw. But it's not boxing fans that bought them. Scalpers that gambled and failed bought them. Flop written all over the fight. Doubt they'll release the real PPV numbers or the live gate revenue, so they don't reveal how weak their hand is in the Joshua negotiations.

          ANYBODY CAN COUNT THE BLUE DOTS YOU ****ING IDIOT.

          Being a draw is relative. Is he the level of draw AJ is? No, of course not. But he is the biggest American draw in all of boxing. He is Showtime's biggest draw. He did draw the second largest boxing crowd in Barclays history. He does have over a million followers on instagram. He is the only A-side in US PPV now. His fight has sold thousands of tickets priced between one thousand and two thousand dollars each.

          Your claim is that tickets are selling so well that they had to add more sections, while simultaneously claiming tickets aren't selling well. You're not making any sense.

          You know what other fights scalpers had to sell tickets for less than face value? Mayweather vs Pacquiao. Mayweather vs McGregor. Lewis vs Tyson. Etc. All of the biggest fights in history. The biggest fights have insane prices and therefore scalpers struggle.

            Irrelevant. I've already shown they've held back tickets. Only you can't see it.

              So tickets are selling so poorly that they're now adding more sections and more tickets? That makes sense to you?

                  They're the sections that will be picked up on TV. They don't want to leave those empty, never a good look. You'd think someone that claims they worked in boxing would know this. But we all know that's a BS story of yours.

                    So they held back tickets that won't be shown on TV, to encourage sales of tickets that will be shown on TV, but ticket sales have been so poor they then added the tickets they held back? You're not making any sense.

                      They held back better seats hoping people would buy up the poorer seats first. When that didn't happen they released the better seats. Perfect sense you fantasist troll.
