Last Saturday night at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas was a very successful event for Top Rank. WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao was a one-man show in the ticket selling department. Pacquiao's opponent that night, former welterweight champion Joshua Clottey, has never been a big name or a big draw in any boxing market. Pacquiao-Clottey still managed to draw a crowd of nearly 51,000 fans [50,994], which is the third largest American audience to attend a boxing event in the last 17 years. [Click Here To Read More]

So 700k. Like I said yesterday. 800k or more would have impressed me. This doesn't. Don't bother replying to me stating who he fought, and lack of promotion. I know.
700k is good, but not for the supposed biggest draw in boxing. Overall, it's better this way. Less people saw a bunch of ****ty fights.

I expected around 500,000 personally and that's a good number itself.for Pacquiao to do more than 700,000 on his name alone,without any real promotion behind it is incredible.
Arum show try capitalizing on large audiences like this by producing an undercard that isn't complete **** in future.
