Its a shame really.
Casino has to make it's money and satisfy it's people too. Hatton peasants, I mean fans got no choice but to deal with the fact that there man will not be cater to hand and foot like he is in the UK.
You do realise hundreds of tickets will be wasted on celebrities and Casino owners' families who wont be able to tell mayweather and hatton apart?
Of course. But them celebrities got deeper pockets than Hatton fans. So they drop more money at the tables. It's a money making world. And I don't blame the casinos. It's the reality of the situation. It's always been like that for a big fight. When Tyson was in his prime a lot of his fans couldn't get tickets to see him fight. There was no big uproar. Why should the situation be different? Cuz Hatton fans come from the UK? Oh F****** well. Go to a bar and watch the fight. Or stay home and order the PPV.
Good logic on the celeb point there.
However this situation simply conveys the negative aspect of the modern fight game. Money is to boxing what electricity is to the worlds economy.
I guess that im just an idealist, the ideal situation being, legitimate fans procuring tickets to see the fights that they want without having to scrounge, save and sprint in order to be considered.
