Ticket sales are said to be slow for the Tyson V Williams show.
Heres the rest of the card.
Laila Ali vs Monica Nunez (s middle)
Nelson Dieppa vs Archie Solis (WBO jr flys)
Randy Griffin vs Julio Garcia (middle)
Russell Chasteen vs George Linberger (heavy)
Willie Stewart vs Vitaliy Kopytko (s middle)
Nick Casal vs John Rudolph (welter)
Devon Alexander vs Lance Leggett (welter)
Timur Ibragimov vs Earl Ladson (heavy)
Williams is seen as a bum fight by the majority over there, so the undercard is less than attractive to say the least..why are the tickets sales slow then?

Yeah, it's abominable.

Have you seen Toneys next opponent?
Rydell Booker, good record first glance.
Two best names on record are past their best cruisers.
Though with his Achilles problem you can’t blame him taking an easy one, McCline I feel would have beaten him, and facing a heavy opponent as Jameel would have been suicide, especially now with the latest injury.
On another thread somebody asked for a better opponent better worth 15-25k to face Skelton, here we have it.
Toney’s people know their stuff..

I read this fight was something of a coup for "Straight Out Promotions".

On another note, I think there's something of an untapped story to Tyson fighting in these Southern states. I don't know if any American boxing writers have wrote on it - since I don't read any - but one of them could produce a good long piece if they dug into it.
