The fight will be soon but sales are a question

The fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul has become one of the most talked about events in the world of boxing. The encounter is scheduled for November 15 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, and this fight promises to be memorable.
However, not everyone thinks that this fight is worth the hype, as Chael Sonnen doesn't believe that these athletes will have a good day in terms of ticket sales. "I also knew if they go and they follow through with this Dallas and Jerry stadium. And this whole bit, they are going to look like fools."
That what he said on his YouTube channel as he talked about the matter saying that the age difference could come in play as something that will not be attractive for the fans believing that it will make them look like "fools".
Ticket sale the main topic
This confrontation, initially scheduled for July 20, 2024, had to be postponed due to a health problem for Mike Tyson, who suffered an ulcer outbreak that prevented him from fighting on that date, more reason for Chael Sonnen to talk.
"It would not matter if it was $10 a ticket or two tickets for $10. You ever seen those you bring a can of soup and a kid gets in for. You could do anything you wanted 80,000 people do not show up to Dallas stadium to watch that match," the former UFC star said.
So this pretty much sums up what the mixed martial arts fighter believes of the current situation surrounding the legend of Tyson and the upcoming boxer Paul for their fight in November.
