TV -focus

“There were never intentions to sell tickets for the event,” promoter Eddie Hearn told the media About May 2, Fatal Fury event at Times Square in New York. “I believe there will be guests there. The whole concept of this. This is not my event. This is my opinion. It’s a TV experience.

“It’s something in a very wild place. The whole fascination with this is that you lose the gate, which I could never do. You literally leave between $ 5 and 10 million on the floor by not having a crowd. In these unique places it’s not about the crowd. They focus on TV production and its appearance.

“It’s like Alcatraz, if it happens. They are not going to place a crowd on Alcatraz Island. This is about the whole experience of the location. That was never the intention. It was never announced that there would be a crowd (at the ‘Fatal Fury’ event in Times Square in New York). I expect there to be a crowd, but as I understand it, they won’t sell the tickets, ‘says Hearn.
