Gervonta Davis vs Leo Santa Cruz Sells 8k Tickets, 1.5M Gate

[KTFOKING]

Very good numbers. Between him, Teo and Ryan they can all make huge fights happen between each other. Devin matches (and possibly even exceeds) them in terms of ability/talent but he doesn't seem to be quite on their level of marketability yet. Hopefully he can get a good fight and performance soon.

If Ryan goes on to fight Pacquiao as expected, nothing is stopping Tank/Lopez to fighting each other later in the year. All these guys need to start fighting and potentially even two and three times. They are being compared to the four kings without even seeing ONE fight take place from the bunch lol.

Big Gate numbers? They comped more than they sold

Who comped more than they sold?

I post all these gate numbers that are available. There hasn't been one Tank card that has "comped more than sold" unless you know something that no one else does?

Lol at comping more than sold on a 2.6M gate.

Nothing uncommon. Even without the pandemic you will see that much or even more given away. I mean if you can't sell those tickets then what is the point in keeping them? And they could have just been tickets for fighters attending the fight or folks involved in the promotion.

Am not giving away s hit in a pandemic. That’s definitely for sure. Nothing uncommon when you have a crowd of 17k or so in attendance, but with what’s going on out there? Nah thanks you...

They comped 280k out of 1.7m dollars.... Check the numbers.

Again though, a lot of those comps could have just been people involved in the promotion or other fighters that attended the fight.

What is alternative? The ticket not being sold? What's the point of that? At least when you bring butts to seats, more money will be spent in the arena/stadium and the promotion makes out better. You don't just want to give away tickets beforehand, but if they aren't being sold up until the day of the fight? Then no point in keeping them. And Texas seems to tax you even on seats not sold LOL.

Very true lol and yeah they all have the potential to have multiple big fights between each other. Gotta start with one fight happening first though

Um yes, you give most of the credit to the headliner who has been doing big gate numbers all over the country. LSC/Mares weren't even able to do this much in their own backyard in LA. But let's give credit to LSC? L-O-L, good one!

Mares? lol

I find it ironic, both Mares and LSC were cursed in crossing over to PBC.

Now LDBC fans want Ryan vs Tank because Tank “proved” that LSC and Mares were highly neeeded to catapult PBC or a Davis show. Ryan don’t need that help.

But it’s understandable that LDBC kids want Ryan for Tank.

Yep, I mean it seemed like it was going to be Tank vs Garcia to set it off but now it will have to be another one. And no problem, go make a Tank vs Lopez fight. That one will do damn good numbers itself. Make even Lopez vs Haney. It doesn't matter but one fight needs to happen first between the four and then I think you will start seeing others match up as well. Tank isn't going to 140 anytime soon unlike Lopez and Haney and even maybe Garcia, so he needs to push to make these fights ASAP. The rest can still face off at 140 or even 147 down the line.

How is it always a coincidence that that LDBC kids feel that black fighters always justify the total revenue or “success” when it’s obvious that Haymon can’t do it without the Mexicans? We heard the same thing with Mikey vs Spence. These guys ain’t Floyd...

How about instead making things about race . we all just chill and watch some dudes slug it out . then talk ish later

They tax you on seat not sold in a pandemic?
