I voted for 500k purely because I think there will be enough interest on both sides of the pond wanting to see who could end up fighting Joshua. I'm sure there are haters but this isn't just about Wilder and Fury, its about whether Wilder can step up in class, take the lineage and move on to the undisputed unification with Joshua. Or, its whether Fury can show up when it matters and prove he is the best HW technician.
Speaking for myself, I cannot wait for this! Undercard is a pile of dog mess but I would pay to see the main event and I'm sure there would be a lot of UK fans who would say the same which i think is enough to bump the numbers.
Can't really speak for US and the rest of the world but surely there are millions of interested fans!
I have heard a lot of people say boxing is not a main stream sport in the US. I have thought about it find out what the major problem is. From my personal analysis and some comments on this forum, I believe the casuals, hard core fans and the average citizens have interest in the sport but the major set back is the "pricing system".
US has the population to make stadium fights and fill the arena if the pricing system can be reviewed to accommodate more fans especially the casuals, others that are gradually picking interest in the sport and those that want to attend events but the price push them back.
If the US can adopt the UK pricing system, am convinced the sport will be very huge in the US. This is a very big reason DAZN and other streaming services should be supported at a minimal price that will accommodate any person interested in the sport.
20k venue is not a too large arena for the venue not to be sold out. US has the capacity to fill that arena in one week if the price is right. The US pricing system is a rip off and not promoting the sport enough especially to the casuals. The pricing system should be reviewed for the progress of the sport at large.
I predicted that the fight would do at least 1 million buys but it if doesn't and it does well over a half a million buys, then I would still consider it a success. It's because one has to remember that Deontay Wilder doesn't have a promoter and Frank Warren is Tyson Fury's promoter who is based out of the U.K.

True, he doesn't have a promoter but why have series of video editors speaking on his behalf?
