Originally posted by King- View PostNot surprised. Geale is unknown to most boxing fans and Golovkin isn't popular enough to draw 10,000 by himself.

It's not about styles. It's about building a brand for yourself and promoters doing there job ... PROMOTING. No schadenfreude here, I actually like GGG and view him as a potential ATG ... HE'S THAT GOOD. With that said let this be a lesson, sure it's an easier sell if a fighter is knocking everyone out and is also fortunate enough to come from a region of the world that just so happens to support their countrymen. But with that said the same way there's a science to what takes place in the ring there is a science to what takes place outside of it... Its not up to the fighter to put butts in the seats, its on the PROMOTERS !!!

Let's be real his biggest audience is out of the country so he does good tv numbers, they do offer HBO outside of the U.S. but i'd buy the $25 ticket if they'd upgrade you, sometimes they can be @ssholes at MSG even when there are a ton of available seats in other sections. Sad that's a quick walk from my house too.

How big would andre ward be if he was mexican..i wonder..
In boxing you gotta be mexican or puerto rican.. Anything else and you have to do something extra to get the big fights.

It's too bad that it isn't selling good... It's a good fight, with an emerging superstar and one of the best action fighters currently.. Probably should have waited on the garden til it was a legit big fight like cotto
