It's no problem for me since i rather watch it at home. lol

Both stadiums/arenas are getting significant world recognition (T-Mobile Arena and the MGM in Las Vegas) compared to the little attention our arena (Barclays, or MSG) receives. For fights, Gervonta put Barclays on the map. UFC every now and then puts MSG on the map but NOTHING compared to what Las Vegas gets.

Hearns and Turki had background issues regarding this topic (not selling tickets to the public). The argument from Hearns is how much money NYC "could have" gained vs. Turki setting his own rules. If he's going to set "rules" at least, bring back free fights for TV watchers and have the fans attending the fights pay like back in the day.

That's a smart way to do it even though they won't. They're money hungry overcharging for these PPV fights and the time zone be shitty because not everyone watches afternoon fights because of them being overseas. Not every fight is PPV worthy.

I believe watching free fights are long gone. I mean the free fights that come on ESPN Top Rank are lower tier boxers that don't have a big draw.

As for new york they're the mecca for entertainment which is why the big sports events want to go down there but those boxing tickets are only for the rich since the average joe wouldn't be able to afford those tickets in new york.
