Comments Thread For: Fury: Wilder Proved He's a Fighting Man - Joshua Has Not!

Lolx..... Your defence is weak bruh. You know not what you talking about.
AJ has sold about 27k tickets at 4X the price of wilder's fight. As at last week, they had about 3k tickets remaining which definitely be sold on fight week.

So take you hate to the pubs.

... Madison Square Garden seats just under 21000 people at full capacity for boxing.

How can Anthony Joshua have sold 27k tickets when he building only max seats 21k?

Just had a look as was thinking of going. Those prices are really ******.
The lower bowl as you call it I can't see any seats for $100? The sections cheapest that is available is $300+? With the sides being $700+.
The cheapest seat i can find is $150 and that is in the nose bleeds miles away from the ring. Anywhere that is near the ring that is left is $2500+ and that is a complete joke.

Wish i got a ticket earlier now.

Get the nosebleed, and try to walk up?

I don't have plans to really bother with the fight (unless my brother wants to watch; the sports bar has everything combat sports focused), but if your interested in the show, make the trip. With basically half of the seats unsold or in the hands of resellers and basically zero US media making the hard push for the event, I doubt the staging folks would leave you in the nosebleeds for long

If and when they fight the robot will get knocked out! That's the only resume that will matter!

Very possible, Wilders one trick is the same shot Klitschko caught AJ with and he wouldn’t get up if it was Wilder. But, if Wilder fights Whyte before AJ he’s gonna lose. I know what your gonna say, Whyte’s crap etc, and in general I would agree but stylistically he is bad news for Wilder. He is younger, quicker and better on the inside than Ortiz and Ortiz showed he was just a little old to beat Deontay. Say what you like, if that fight happens, AJ vs Wilder will never happen.

Whyte,lol! Get past Rivas first!

You won’t be laughing if the fight gets made, but I suspect it won’t happen, they have been avoiding the match up despite Whyte ranking. He’ll fight Ortiz and then a dead beat.

I like Fury very much and I feel like he boxed Wilder's ear off and won the fight. Nevertheless, I believe that he's yet to recover from concussion he suffered from that 12th round right hand. Nobody wants to take Fury serious anymore. He's not a man who runs away from a fight on the last minute. Fury is not a fighting man

[pillowfists98]

Fury has gone back and forth ****ting on Wilder and kissing his ass so many times you'd swear he has some kind of mental problem. oh wait...

Which fight? Wilder versus Beetlejuice head? Wilder destroys Whyte. Are you kidding?

$67 or $167

You guys got all into the debate about ticket prices, venue seating availability, the distribution process, etc etc, and kind of lost the main principle of the discussion. The point really being about fight contract disputes over who is the 'A' side and who's the 'B' side, and who's the bigger draw. Man I'm think I'm cultured enough to admit that Anthony Joshua is the logical 'A' side. Other Americans that can't seem to acknowledge this are discernibly unable to see through their bias and fandom. C'mon... If that's truly Wilder's objection to signing a contract with Joshua, I'm sorry but I see a problem with that on multiple levels. Somethin don't smell right about Wilder, and I ain't fallin for the pull-my-finger trick.

But rather than beat all that debate to death, since you brought up all the ticket pricing details...Damn those seats at The Garden are expensive ! Heck if I'm a boxing fan (which I am), I don't care who the 'A' side is, I'm going to see Wilder for 60 frickin 7 dollars ! AJ needs to do something about those prices, bruh. Form a sliding scale or somethin for the less fortunate fans, for Pete's sake. Damn. I'll call ya the 'A' side all day long, just help a brotha out yo. Anthony "A-side" Freaken Joshua, Homies !!!!
