Pretty good numbers, it would have done much better in LA or Denver though.

Regardless of whatever happens in their next few fights, even if they both lose or one does, there will be a 3rd fight at some point.

They should bring that 3rd fight to the Pepsi Center in Denver.

I think they will unless Arum says know, we know Rios is down to go, Mike voiced he wanted to defend in his hometown, I dont see a problem unless arum doesnt want to do it.

It'd be the first time I attended a fight live since Johnston-Castillo II when I was 19.

This fight easily does 10-15K in San Antonio. Put a nice undercard on it and you'll have a fantastic event.

San Antonio is a hot bed for good fights. There's always a great response.

It would of done 10-15K in Houston too, pretty sure it would have done great numbers in the DFW area as well.

Those guys can't draw flies to dog sheet. Those are bad numbers.

People don't realize gate numbers in Vegas doesn't really matter. The Mandalay Bay probably put up several million just to host the fight then made tens of millions off of the ******** and money spent in their casino. The gate is just gravy on top.
