Haney/Garcia struggling to sell tickets

[Floyd is TBE]

So much for the narratives about Ryan's star power. Honestly, Ryan should have listened to Floyd and became a champion before making this fight. Don't know if it would have helped ticket sales, but it might have made the fight more marketable.

****** fight never should have been made

[MONGOOSE66]

Kids on here claim that this fight was justified due to popularity. It’s always been a ****** fight. Haney should have fought a real threat like Teo. I won’t even mention tank cause tank never fights above “ average” fighters.

Ryan is not a world class fighter, that much was shown against Tank and Duerte even since he struggled badly before the ko shot.

So why would everyone want to see Devin give him a boxing lesson that probably won't result in a stoppage?

if cryins fans desert him he will soon be talking about retirement again

if he cant get them to believe he has a shot at KO'ing guys and being a top contender his days are numbered

haney at this point in his career is a bad matchup, cryin will just not be sharp enough to tag him right

cryin has to stay off the drugs and crazy stuff and really knuckle down for a few years to build himself up again for a big cashout payday after a few good KO's v lower tier guys to make believers of his groupies again possibly, i doubt he ever has what it takes to be a top guy anyway

Shouldn’t have done it in New York.

that’s the biggest problem

Ryan isn’t big there and Haney isn’t big anywhere

[Gary Coleman]

It doesn't help when everyone is voicing their concern for the mental health of 1 half of the main event.

Really starting to believe the problem is hosting this fight in the east coast

new yorkers want blood and thunder not some wide eyed crazy cali mexican twitter addict & some other west coast guy who loves himself but not putting people on the canvas very often if at all

I think there's a host of potential factors: Main event is happening in a state/venue that's not ideal for the fighters or the promoter, the under-card is lacking, Garcia damaged his reputation with the Davis performance, Garcia's erratic pre-fight behavior is casting doubt that the fight even happens, tickets are too expensive.
