What could be the most probable reason for the slow ticket sales of PBF-JMM fight?

[hardcore_crash]

If "casual" fans don't know who Marquez is how do they know he is a counter-puncher?

I'll tell you what though Marquez Vs. Casamayor at the MGM on Sep 19 did not have much empty seats at all, especially considering those two names are
not very well known.

They won't... If they don't know JMM, they would assume he's just some Mexican bum by looking at the Vegas odds of 4 to 1 in favor of PBF... The more reasons they won't buy the fight...

I checked on the possibilty of a boring snoozefest as the reason for the slow ticket sales. Each one of them should only be pitted against warriors, IMO, otherwise it will just be almost a fight, but could very well never be one. The possibility for the bout to turn into "the duck" vs "the moonwalk" affair is very high .

Get PBF or JMM in the ring with an agressor, then the difference will be night and day, it is a lot of levels of excitement UP with that kind of matchup!
