Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua-Jarrell Miller Sets Pre-Sale Record at MSG

[Ake-Dawg]

Americans will only pay to see Wilder if he's fighting a Brit. Fury was the one getting all the attention leading up to the Wilder fight. Mental health is a popular topic in the media recently and Tyson Fury was getting a lot of attention because of it. Wilder even did an interview where he sounded jealous as ****. Look at the Rogan numbers, Fury's interview has a million more views than Wilders. Fury is the more popular fighter.

You think Wilder fans follow Rogan?

Seriously though, I do believe Fury contributed, but it had nothing to do with him being British and everything to do with his mouthpiece and his backstory. He could have been South African or Russian.

Half the arena was Brits. 700,000 Brits live in the US also i guarantee a good amount of those PPVS were Brits.

All that may be true, but to suggest that if you subtracted the British fans from the arena that other fans wouldn't have purchased those tickets is quite presumptuous.

Seen as the arena was nowhere close to selling out, no it isn't.

Fck wrong with half of yall....this is good news even if u arent a Joshua fan...Wilder vs Joshua will be huge...America will know more about him. Alot of estrogen in these threads

Wilder will lose to Fury so it's not about estrogens it's about sense. Wilder shouldn't have made a public announcement of losing his pen, he's lost once already that should've been his reality check.

Joshua drew 16,000 viewers to Dazn for his last fight which was free.

Wilder got 325,000 people to pay $75.

Levels.

Just out of curiosity, where is that figure from?

[Chrismart]

So to summarize the reactions in this thread...

* Eddie bought all the tickets

* resellers bought all the tickets

* MSG is tiny and sucks anyway

* It's not really a record

* he still ducked...

* But how many PPV's will it sell?

* Who cares about the finances anyway?

Anything else?

Hearn buying all the tickets is a good one.
Shitting on MSG is unreal though.

[REDEEMER]

did stubhub buy most the tickets? because that is usually the case when hearn comes out with these "records"

even so, pathetic from hearn

disgusting business practices

As usual your posts are like something to decipher that doesn't make sense. Joel Fisher Vice President of MSG confirmed the tickets were sold to consumers that are subscribing to match room .

dude..MSG sucks....the knicks will always be bigger than the nets....its like asking if the mets will ever be bigger than the yankees...lol...MSG is in a played out, crap, area of the city.....BK is way more happening and less crowded and less trashy

canelo just fought there in a crap fight against a big underdog....canelo is not fighting a meaningful fight there

hearn, TR and golden boy are trying to keep their foot in NY because haymon and the barclays has had such a stranglehold on the NY market

name me some big fights in the last 5 years that have happened at MSG pre loma/linares...pre canelo...pre crawford/khan(not really a big fight either)

You must be 15 or so ?

Barclays will never surpass MSG historical value , going by your posts you're probably new to boxing to ?
