It's Vegas. The casinos give out free tickets to their patrons.

Which is a good figure.

To have only SOLD 3k tickets and made nearly $1m in gate is top.

Had it been cheaper more people would have gone.

Around 3k is pretty good tbh. Fury has always been a terrible draw.

I don’t know if you were in Manchester for his comeback but it really wasn’t terrible.

Some people here are obsessed with Fury's attendances as if that in some way diminishes his abilities as a fighter. Which it doesn't.

He, a British fighter, fought an unknown Swedish guy in Vegas. I'm surprised they managed to sell any tickets. Plus that's the Vegas boxing business model, large amounts of tickets are always complimentary to the gambling set.

When Fury fights Wilder again it will be a sell out. If he continues to fight lesser guys then the fights won't be. Simple.

Jesus wept Ruthless that’s an atrocious number. How in gods name are Bob and ESPN covering Fury’s enormous purses with that? He’s on something like $10million a fight. We haven’t even got to the opponent and the undercard yet!

It was higher than the Schwarz fight. Forget his purse or breaking even.. $1m in gate revenue against 3k tickets sold is decent.
