    Not great obviously, but not terrible either everything considered.

      The last UFC event did 16,000 tickets and 2 milion gate revenue and that was co-headlined by 5'4" Henry Cejudo and a female fighter.

      Fury has a long way to go to setting America on fire. He'll need a bigger Uncle Sam hat next time.

          Not surprising. It was a complete bs fight.

          I mean ffs this ain't a complicated thing to promote boxing at some level. And putting a UK guy without a bunch of belts in with a German guy even hardcore boxing fans don't know at among the hyped of boxing venues in the world that happens to be in neither fighters country is about f#cking r3tarded.

            Showtime and ESPN must feel sick with how much the paid Wilder and Fury, the numbers they got back were terrible. DAZN with Golovkin too.

                Good point. I also wondered that. I don't care about the business side at all, but how do you make 1 million gate and be able to pay Fury 12 million?

                I'm not math smart. I still don't get where the purses and profits will come from.

                  Then continue doing business with Mr. Haymon and make all the other fights in all divisions including: Davis-Lomachenko and Spence-Crawford. Make those before Wilder-Fury. The first two are PPV worthy. Wilder-Fury, I will stream.
