Who Would Sell More Tickets....
.... if they were fighting Wilder?
For me, it's.....
1. Joshua
2. Haye
3. Fury
Fury's got the belts, but I don't think he has the mass appeal that the other two have.

I think AJ sells more than any other fighter on the planet at the moment.

Canelo sells more tickets and he doesn't even fight in his native country. He could fill a stadium in Mexico no matter who he was fighting.Nightmare Roy wrote:I think AJ sells more than any other fighter on the planet at the moment.

Re: Who Would Sell More Tickets....
David Haye's is an odd case.
Less than a few months ago, so many folk were saying how peed off they were with him & how they'd never buy another ticket to watch him fight, yet now, everyone wants to see him!
The question is, where did it all go RIGHT?

Hate to say it, but GayJay has crossed over. Warrington will do 30,000 this summer, so he's next. Only a Leeds thing, though. Couldn't take him elsewhere.

I'd like to see him against Briggs, but I rather watch any Joshua fight against any top contender.Syntax Error wrote:David Haye's is an odd case.

I prefere to watch Povetkin Wilder above Haye.
I really see nothing special in Haye, he knows how to play the media and a lot of people care about that.
For me he may first fight Briggs before even thinking about higher ranked boxers.
Re: Who Would Sell More Tickets....
Not even come close to selling the arena out yet. Even if he did 30k it would be for one fight only so he could get pasted by Selby.CharlesListon wrote:When has Warrington done 30k?

sells the most tickets vs. Wilder where?
in the UK, Joshua.
In the US, I reckon Fury would draw a bigger gate...

Joshua
Haye
Fury.
Also Eddie is very lucky that Joshua is a Monster star because eddie was trying to tell us that Kell is a box office fighter when he can not sell out the Sheffield arena

Re: Who Would Sell More Tickets....
AJ's been flattered by fighting on cards with a lot of big fights the whyte was massive because of their past, considering Haye did 16,000 without even really having a undercard I'd say one or two fights he won't be far off doing the same numbers imagine he had sky doing the promo too

Re: Who Would Sell More Tickets....
There was about 1,000 mid range tickets left for his last fight. A crossover star sells them because people aren't bothered what they pay, totally different to a guy selling them to his actual following.expe wrote:Not even come close to selling the arena out yet.

Re: Who Would Sell More Tickets....
He's got a certain amount of crossover appeal. Lots of casuals like him. He's also a Londoner. It's a big place and can produce a huge following.Syntax Error wrote:David Haye's is an odd case.

Joshua is the biggest ticket seller in the UK right now.
Fury will probably do big numbers after his win over Wlad. Thing is, Fury probably couldn't give a toss!
Joshua will finish up a very, very rich man, providing the wheels don't come off against Martin. Didn't he make millions for fighting Dillian Whyte!? Crazy
That's why, in the right hands, it's still the richest prize in sport.

Re: Who Would Sell More Tickets....
Tickets sells and mediahype are often created by looks.
Joshua looks like an olympic, even if it wasn't for boxing.
Tyson Fury looks like a random guy, no matter how skilled he is, he just doesn't look strong. If I met him on the street and didn't know about him and asked me for a fight, I would have fought him a 100 times rather as Anthony Joshua and even above Wladimir probably.
When I'm on holiday, creating a footballteam and don't know any of the players, Ronaldo would be the first player I chose, but Messi and Ozil would be the latest, purely based on looks.
Looks matter, when it comes to the media, as well as on selling tickets.
The boxing world looks at the numbers in a totally differend way as the media. If you ask a random mediareporter that doesn't know much about boxing who's the best boxer out there after looking at the statistics, he would probably point at Wilder because of his KO ratio and 0 loses and such. On a first look you would also say Martin and Joshua are quite equal, Martin won more, Joshua drawed/lost less. In the boxing world, everybody expects Joshua to win, quite easely in fact.
