Comments Thread For: Usyk Remains A Hot Ticket, as Chicago Bill Nears Sold Out Status

[Removed Now]

No excuse whatsoever. If you're from a place, you should at least know the geography and demographic of the place, unless you're uneducated.

As an American, you should know about the Eastern European and Russian population in Chicago. Cuban, Russian, Haitian and Jamaican population in Miami. Filipino, Korean and Oceania population in California. Puerto Rican, Caribbean, Italian population in New York, New Jersey and Philly. Irish in Boston. Cape Verdeans in Rhode Island. Somalis in Minnesota. Nigerians in Texas. Brits in NYC, San Francisco (Silicon Valley) and Los Angeles. Ethiopians/Eritreans in DC. Etc.

The average American is not going to know what’s going on in Chicago if they live in bumble **** USA. That’s like us blacks calling all whites people racist for not standing up for police Brutality. America is so big there’s white people living in 2019 in America they never seen a black person face to face. Not ever Chinese person knows what’s going on crossed the whole country. News flash the whole country was shocked with the flint water crises. That was going on for years before it hit the news.

Yes I person know there’s a large polish community in Chicago. However I know that do to my job. Yes I know there’s a large Puerto Rican population in nyc. Yes I know there’s a large Haitian population in Massachusetts. Yes I know there’s a large cape verdian population in Massachusetts also. I know that from traveling. A lot of Americans dont travel or speak to one another now a days. If you don’t live in a major city with different cultures they will just see the same old ****. I am telling you as American. It’s the Fing truth. The average American probably can’t name capitals of every state or name 10 presidents.

Apparently he won't.

Because Usyk is such an underdog, that he thinks the idea of Usyk becoming a champ is nonsense.

So he always roots for the underdog except for when he doesn't root for the underdog, in which case he says fuck the underdog.

I'm trying to follow the logic but...

Not shocking with the population of Eastern Europeans and Russians in Chicago. Didn't Jarell Miller vs Adamek also sell out the same arena?

How big is the arena?

dunno about the arena.

but... chicago is the second largest city in poland. no joke man. there are about 1.5 mil poles and polish-americans in chicago. i went to fonfara-smith, saw my favorite (at the time) LHW get iced. saw my favorite 154 prospect do his thing, and saw two of my favorite bantamweights (warrem, payano) fight for the world title. i mighta been one of 3 white folks there who werent speakin polski. there aint quite 50k ukranians there, but itll be a good show man.

Is ryan garcia selling out back yards yet?

[Bob Haymon]

The arena holds more than 10,000. If this was such a hot ticket then they would've made more tickets available. I doubt there's much interest in Usyk vs. Spongebob. I dont think there's that many Ukranians in Chicago. Assuming there's about 3k comps, which is standard in boxing, then this has only sold 2-4k tickets.

Dude do you know how big America is??? Some ppl never left their state.

This is so true, as a Californian, I’ve only visited Portland, Chicago and New York City. My state alone is large and I still have yet to learn everything. Bay Area keeps me happy and has the best food though .

I have visited other countries instead, as oppose of traveling in my own country.

[JakeNDaBox]

I'll be going. It mentions Jessica mckaskill, but nothing about bivol. Hopefully he's still fighting.

I mentioned JMac since she’s from the Chicagoland area and has a scheduled opponent. Bivol is on the card, but his opponent has yet to be announced nor does his presence or absence affect ticket sales in any way.

[ShoulderRoll]

Good for him. 6,000 isnt bad at all.

But watch how some of the guys that will praise this are the same ones who say Andre Ward wasn't a draw.

This right here-^^^^^.

I still haven’t been to Las Vegas or California yet. However I been to the Caribbean twice , Europe once and The Middle East. It’s cheaper for me to travel to DR then to Vegas or Cali.

Last I heard about Texas, it was a mass shooting. You like Mexican food, but not Mexicans

Funny you say that seeing as how my wife is of Mexican descent and my son is half

I literally love legal Mexicans
