    I'd call that winning... $15M and 12K for a horribly mismatched opponent that no on ever heard. Dirty Abel doesn't get to steal the 10% from his purse.

    GGG = $$$

        Tickets aren't given away just to fill seats. Sure they give family/friends/partners tickets that's business. Golovkin and Wilder give them away just to fill seats because they can't sell them. Now move along with your ****** comparisons.

            These aren't bad numbers at all. Better attendance than 90% of PBC/Top Rank Cards and he was fighting a guy nobody had ever heard of.

              That was about the same attendance as the Wilder v. Brezeala fight. Except, they paid Wilder more than Golovkin. Ouch!

                  LOL this whole thread is a giant fail. Dummies, 12K people showed up to watch GGG vs an absolute nobody. Even HARDCORE boxing fans didnt know who rolls was lol. 12K vs rolls is a SUCCESS.

                    All OF BOXING Struggling with Attendance and Ticket Sales in America. If it wasn't for these Network and APP Deals pumping money into boxing, these Promotions would be out of business. TV Money is keeping boxing ALIVE in America

                    I think that is solid considering it was a SH#T Card and he was fighting Steve Rolls who NOBODY knew before GGG decided to fight him
