Comments Thread For: Hearn Hits Back at Arum: Your Last Two Shows Sold 800 Tickets!

[DARTH SILKWORMS]

This was a card with Frampton in Philly, a boxing town. This ain't Navarette at a Casino that seats 300 in Oklahoma. That arena was empty and that's probably why Frampton got that mysterious hand injury two days before the fight.

Philly hasn't been a town for big time boxing in many many decades. If it was a big fight, it wouldn't have been in Philly to begin with. All that matters is the TV licensing fee for a fight like that. Ticket sales wouldn't be the reason for a hand injury. Top Rank couldn't care less about ticket sales on a show like that.

THEY LET THE LOCAL PROMOTER KEEP ALL OF THE TICKET MONEY. They don't care. At all.

Arum has lost his magic touch and is getting a bit desperate.

Just recently, he said that the winner of Horn vs. Murata will face Rob Brant and that the Kovalev vs. Yarde winner, if the Canelo fight doesn't happen, will face Zurdo or Jesse Hart... So basically all in house fights.

What's your point?
PBC does in house Fights all the time
Duh

Hearn should be the last guy talking about ticket sales. The attendance for Andrade-Sulecki was horrible. Most of the fans were Polish just supporting Sulecki

Hearn wouldnt care if Andy got mugged in a dark ally. He'd love to sue him, that would be another tentacle to snare him with, but Hearn wants those titles that he schemed and payed so much for, intact, or as many as he can get. If AJ can't get them, a judge might, but more fine print on the S.A. contract might keep Hearn in the game. The rematch clause only leads to another contract and we know about Hearn contracts.

It's not a war zone, but there is a travel advisory by the U.S. Government! Bob is right about that! Fury was a dud, and his next fight looks bleak too! Hearn is right about that!

Could be something to do with the ****** prices you guys pay over there.

Watching boxing live has become a rich man’s game in a struggling sport

It could be that or just that a lot of his cards are crap as he forces in house fights or mismatches.

Both Eddie and Robert are idiots. Eddie got off a couple of good one's though.

This was a Peltz card. He's been promoting in Philly for 50 years. Philly is a boxing town.
