      12k is good to Jim Boone. He was on the boxing voice and he said that's what he expects for the fight to sell.

        Wilder sold just fine against Ortiz. Stop following Hearn's rhetoric.
        The Ortiz vs Wilder fight had 14k in attendance. The Barclays Center holds 19k. This is good for you? If so, then what does that say about AJ fighting in front of 90k? Also, if Wilder fights in front of 14k and AJ fights in front of 90k, then shouldn't the split be somewhere around 85/15?

          That was the second highest attended fight at Barclays.

          And you comparing Joshua's attendance numbers in stadium fights to Wilder or anyone by that matter? So after Pacquiao fought Clottey in front of 50k, did he deserve a 80/20 split over Mayweather who was doing just 15k-16k at the MGM?

            Shaking my head. You are reaching. Wilder consistently fights in front of half empty crowds while AJ fights in soccer stadiums with at least 80k in the stands. Wilder is nowhere near as popular as Pacquiao was and you know it. Also, Manny fought a lot of good fighters in his day. He didn't avoid everyone that was good in his division like Wilder has done for 10 years. That's why he doesnt deserve a good %. He shouldn't be rewarded for fighting bums his whole career.

              No, you were the one using terrible logic.

              And in terms of the popularity between the two, is there even a question who is the bigger name? Joshua is the biggest or second biggest name in the game. He is the A-side in whatever fight he fights in.

                  So if he's that popular and drawing that many to each of his fights, then how am I using terrible logic? You just go by the numbers and Wilder draws almost nothing and he brings one belt. AJ draws thousands and he has 4 belts and PPV. It seems pretty straight forward here

                    You just compared what Wilder drew at Barclays to what Joshua draws in a stadium. That was just dumb. So after Spence does over 30k in a stadium against Garcia, he can ask for a 60/40 split against Crawford?

                    Calzaghe vs Hopkins did 14k in Vegas, and Joshua did 90k vs Klitschko. And guess what? Both fights did similar in terms of live gate even with one fight drawing over 70k people. So yeah, comparing stadium to arena fights is ******. It is a moot point when comparing the two anyways since Joshua is the clear A-side. You don't have to say dumb stuff to make a point.

                      That guy that's responding, KOTICKETS, is a ticket broker. Should I listen to him or should I listen to you who actually thought PBC was selling tickets on Groupon?

                      He's saying the same thing Vinnykin has been saying from the first page but seems like you don't understand why the tickets are being sold on Groupon and you've made up in your head that this is a bad thing that means the fight isn't selling.

                      When you said groupon I thought I was gonna get tickets half off. The costs of these tickets are the same as other places. Groupon is just another 3rd party site being used to sell the tickets. That's it
