Comments Thread For: Hearn: Wilder-Fury Has Only Sold 8,000 Tickets; Not A Good Look

Problem is the ticket prices are too high. Price it more reasonably and you could sell out the whole arena.

You're in Cali...stack the undercard with Latino draws!

Well, they're putting Chavez Jr vs Angulo on the card which probably could have headlined its own PPV 5 years ago, but now Angulo is totally shot and the Mexican fans don't care about Jr anymore.

Interesting..........

I had my heart set on attending this but they came too aggressive out the gates only offering $1k tickets pretending all the other sold out so I said **** it.

There’s no buzz around town about it and nobody asking me about it. Out of principle I won’t go now even if I find cheaper tickets even though I don’t think it’s a bad fight.

. That's why Vegas is the mecca of boxing

If this is true then why isn't Wilder vs Fury in Vegas??

[MELLOMAN007]

Lololol
Wilder never sold out an Arena in Alabama ever actually never any arena
If wilder does 300k PPV
He does a lot
Ha

Revenue wise, that is about the same as selling one million in the U.K.

[MELLOMAN007]

How much revenue are those 8k seats, assuming its today & not yesterday cuz Hearn is becoming like Arum with talking about other peoples business, generating is what matters anyway. I seen some 9k seats on that groupon thing that was up here the other day.

Spoken like a sensible man. Less and less come around.

Yeah man, after that B.S. performance against Canelo, I wouldn't be surprised if his Dad disowned him too.

A lot of tickets will sell on the night

If the Hearns paid as much attention to their own business they would no doubt not have such dislike.......pair of p****!

1 mil UK PPV's @ $25= $25 mil

1 mil US PPV's @$70= $70 mil

Who would be the A-side then?

If Wilder-Fury sells 300k that's $21 mil

That makes more sense

The 1 million PPV is for both UK and US. I definitely know more numbers will come from the UK than US. This fight should show their value and humble themselves when it comes to negotiating with AJ
