View Full Version : Did PBF ask GBP to tone down a mass of Manchester mental forces?

I seemed to feel an energy the night Hatton dismantled Kostya Tszyu. Anyone else? I sense Ricky being an ustoppable force with the mass of positive mental energies enpowering him while at the same time negatively affecting Floyd.
I also wonder if GBP has anything to do do with the sudden shortage oftickets and lack of seating. PBF and GBP had a contract previously but these strange bed fellows got to be up to something here.:think

If anything, GBP should want Hatton to win.
DLH-Hatton is better for GBP than PBF-DLH 2.

Possibly but he may also fear the Englishman outperforming him. I mean I have seen Oscar on at least one t.v. show applaud his performance agaist who he calls the P4P.
Bottom line some one with pull is trying their best to disrupt Hatton's game plan because this ticket/lack of seat thing is just rediculous.

So does Hatton's "game plan" actually involve boxing?
I'll say it again. This pissing and moaning about the venue instead of looking forward to a great fight is silly.

Oscar has also said he prefers to fight Hatton.
The MGM Grand reserves tickets to the high rollers so they can make more $$$. The high rollers spend more money.
And GBP reserves seats, probably to those who are sponsors or people whom they would like to sponsor.
The only conspiracy under way is how GBP and the MGM Grand hope to make as much money as possible, whether now or in the future.

It's not going to matter who is in the seats. Hatton won't have more fans than Oscar did... and Floyd did just fine.

Ok let me see if I can understand this. MGM has 16,000 of which about 10,000 has been allocated among three parties. Thus, Hatton fans could possibly buy the "high roller" tickets if they have not already meaning 4000 fans could potentially jump to 10,000 if they decided to act quickly?
Also since money is the main factor, how much will these "high roller" tickets need to sell for if they are to gross anywhere near the Kessler/Calzaghe revenue via a possibly filled Millinium Stadium holding 75,000 seats?

well with 75000 seats lol...about 65000 are not boxing fans and would not be able to even see the fight unless they had binoculars...those foreign fans flock to any sporting event in droves..and they dont even charge much compared to what we got to pay here for tickets..300-400 us dollars for good seats at the Taylor Pavlik fight....good god....Vegas is more then that about 1000 for a decent seat for a fight like May/Hatton....anyway dumb ass thread..I guess Ricky fights with the spirit of manchester and without it ..the forces of grey skull does not allow this HE-MAN Hatton to transform into that unstoppable force..:rofl :rofl :nut :nut :nut :nut :patsch

I can't give you an exact number, but they'll be incredibly expensive. Remember, Floyd/DLH was also in a small venue and it generated the highest boxing live gate in history. Not to mention the huge site fee, which a stadium would not provide, that everyone who's ranting about this being held in a bigger venue seems to be ignoring or completely unaware of.

wtf? do you actually think hatton's gameplan is to "outcheer" mayweather.
NO! the only thing that makes hatton win, is hatton. he is a dedicated trainer with infinite heart. hatton's poularity has defintely worked out for him OUTSIDE the ring.....but INSIDE the ring its just two guys fighting eachother.
You do not understand how it works, no matter how many fans fitted a stadium none matched oscar floyd revenue, the casion site fee is massive, its not about fans its about dollar, Vegs casinos make all the dollar and have less than 20, 000 seats
Howver Hatton should be mad, many of his fans earn little and must pay 1000s to even get there, they are loyal, highrollers walk out half way through a fight, that is wrong, greed wins
And that's the motivation that governs every facet of real life. What's the old saying: "Money makes the world go around"? Once again, people should stop crying about the trivial issues of Hatton having less fans on site or the "atmosphere" that a huge stadium would generate and focus on the fight.

Finally, someone who's thinking about this rationally. If Hatton is more concerned about how many of his supporters are present than he is training, then he has a serious problem.
Floyd gets poor attendance in Grand Rapids LOL
BTW now he "hustles YEP"
I don't believe PBF is a huge draw by any stretch of the imagination, but do you actually think his share of the tickets won't sell out for this fight?

just to bust open the crap spewed on here by the ignorant posters that know nothing about money. For one thing...75k seats.lol at a stadium at no more then $50 us dollars a pop or maybe less for a boxing match. YOU GUYS DONT CHARGE THAT DAMNED MUCH OVER THERE. That would come up to be 3.7 mill over in vegas....4000 seats which are including vip front row and lower section good seats about $900 damned dollars a pop...that is the same 3.7 mill right there.. The damned tickets for Taylor Pavlik for decent seats are 300 good seats are 400 a pop.....you tell me who is making more money.....

Oh and remember that L1 British pound equals about $2 U.S.
What one needs to know is the average amount of the Millinium tickets and how many of the MGM tickets will actually sell. The Millinium is expected to sell out.
Bottom line is that fans more than likely influence their teams in one way or another and its silly to dismiss that so quickly as you have

I am wrong...they are very few tickets at those high prices of 2 grand and a grand that is one or two rows in one section...The Hatton-Mayweather fight will gross more then Calz-Kessl. Guaranteed

So basically you're pissing and moaning because you think Hatton should have the optimal advantage? Because Mayweather is so used to having the fans on his side? :lol:
