Roc Nation's bullshit undercards

[Kirkland Laing]

But they're doing something totally new with boxing. Taking it to another level. Putting on amazing shows which will blow traditional boxing shows and promoters away.

Which means in reality some illiterate rapping goon yelling obsentities into a microphone for half an hour before the main event. Do boxing fans really want to watch some moronic rapper when they're going to watch the fights? Personally I'd pay extra to not have some idiot yelling at me and I'd pay more again to watch the fucker get put in the ring with a pro fighter.

What people arnt understand is that the whole having a rapper there stuff will attract a whole other type of crowd. Tickets will sale out because people will go to watch the rapper also so it helps sell tickets IMO.

That's the plan. Turn a younger demographic onto boxing. And to be fair it's a 46 year old white male complaining here. We already had this with 50 Cent and it failed miserably though.

I'm 21 and listen to rap and I know that 50 cent is not even relevant as a rapper anymore. Jay z on the other hand has some of the top rappers signed with him also. I know for sure if my favorite rapper was doing a show along with some boxing I'd put out more for a ticket then I would for either event alone. Smart business if you ask me .

What about miserable old white guys who hate rap, the backbone of boxing ticket buyers for decades? They're going to be less likely to buy tickets. Now get off my lawn.
