Comments Thread For: Errol Spence vs. Mikey Garcia Eyed For March 16, AT&T Stadium

Not sure what exactly your referring to. Jerry Jones is renting out his stadium (which would otherwise be vacant that day, earning no revenue) for a percentage of the ticket sales, endorsement revenue ect.

Seems to me like Spence and Haymon are backing Jerry Jones, not the other way around.

Typically Host Venues BID behind the scenes to have certain fights AT their Venue. For example recently Staple Center in Los Angeles beat out MGM Grand in Las Vegas for the Wilder vs Fury Fight. So I'm not sure how all that is worked out but it seems like it is more than just "Renting Out A Venue To Have A Fight"

Host venues can’t bid on anything unless the promotional team gives them the ok to do so. So if Haymon and company decides to consider only two venues (like MGM and Texas Stadium) then that’s who will be bidding.

The venue who takes less, invariably offers the most money to the promotional side, and therefore usually r the ones to win the bid.

Interesting...
Like I posted I'm not sure how it works and what is going on behind the scenes I will leave that to the guys who organize fights for a living but I'm sure if they do it at Cowboys Stadium it will be profitable for ALL INVOLVED

It’s the smart move (Texas Stadium), being that it’s a huge Hispanic State and Spence is from there as well.

So Jerry Jones could of came in a little higher than Vegas and it still would be more profitable for team Spence due to seating capacity. They’re probably expecting to sell a lot of tickets.

Thank u soooo much for reiterating what I’ve been saying to these blind, zealous Loma fans for about a month now which is;

Loma didn’t want any smoke with Mikey, evidenced by the fact he would never give a commitment with a definitive timeline as to when he was gonna fight Mikey.

But as soon as Mikey says he’s trying for Spence it’s:

“I want Mikey right after My fight with Pedraza”

Give me a Fuc.ing break !

Your welcome man. We have continue to clear things up around these parts. We all want to see Mikey vs. Loma , but it won't happen till Loma is ready for Mikey , meanwhile Mikey is taking on the best fighter's in & around his weight class. Mikey has earned his top pound for pound respect.

Its not the promotion aspect that worries me, its the the fans pockets that does. While some fans are in a financial situation where they have no issues paying for 3 PPV fights in 4 month span, i assure you some are not. They will pick 2, or maybe just 1 of the fight to pay for. This will undoubtedly have an affect on all 3 fights

I think that Spence-Garcia happening in March eliminates most of what you seem to be worried about, tbh.

If anything, Pacquiao-Broner is likely to be the fight that takes the hit; Wilder-Fury is going to get the full sell, Pacquiao-Broner won't start until the re-air the week after, and Spence-Garcia is like confirmed and on the docket by then too.

a good accurate post

Boy oh boy things swing in the breeze in here, a week ago Mikey was a big mouth and no intentions of fighting Spence, today he is a hero.

Ive never seen a forum that changes with the wind as much as this one.

It was obvious Mikey was going all out for this fight.

Why so damn late? This **** should happen the first quarter of 2019 smfh.

march 16 is first qt lol

Jerry Jones bought out the venue for Spence-Ocampo, before then re-selling the venue (hoping to cover the money he spent and comfortably doing so).

That's likely not going to be the case for this fight, but it's clear as day that Jerry Jones sees the chance to establish a new franchise at his stadium in Texas with Errol Spence Jr, and he's backing the move.

Barclays Center on the East coast, T-Mobile Arena and MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Staples Center is now back in the mix on the West Coast, and you have AT&T Stadium in Texas.
