    GGG vs Rolls draws only 12,357 attendance almost 40% of venue was empty

    Attendance was terrible. Only a little over 12K in attendance at MSG for GGG according to Fat Boy Dan. Meaning almost 40% of the venue was empty. Canelo and Joshua both sold out out MSG and did 20,112 in attendance. Even Crawford drew 14,091 attendance at MSG.

    Gennady Golovkin made sure there would not be a repeat of Andy Ruiz Jr.'s massive upset over Anthony Joshua, knocking out Steve Rolls in the fourth round Saturday.

          Announced crowds are usually inflated and a lot of those tickets will be freebies. DAZN ****ed up signing the fake, cherrypicking, hypocrite for so much.

            Funny you say that when it comes to GGG but when it comes to Joshua then you don’t say sh it. You take it for gospel

              for sure the 12K number ain't even the full story. They had dirt cheap tickets and they still had to give away thousands of tickets for free just to get to 12K phony attendance LMAO

              They probably sold HALF as many tickets as the number above. There was no market or demand for these tickets. I put the over under for real tickets sold at 5,000. Anywhere from 5,000-7,000 are tickets that were given away for free. If anyone can get their hands on the official live gate from the commission that will be pure comedy gold.

                Considering the card and who he was fighting that's a decent turnout

                  It's hard to fake a full crowd.

                    No you still believe the gate generated and everything for gospel. You know they give out tons of free tickets to AJ fights too right? He sells out yes but tickets are given out too just not as many.
