The July 12 site Edgar Berlanga vs. Hamzah Sheeraz Event will be the National Tennis Center of 14,053 places of the Louis Armstrong Stadium in Queens, New York. It is a place that works for this sport, but not for boxing. Unfortunately the stadium has many seats at ground level, doing -worthless to see boxing.
Fans are more concerned about the event’s PPV price instead of location. If Turki wants to please the fans, it should have a discount price because Berlanga is in the main event.
It is unclear why Turki Alshikh chose this location for the July 12 event. Is a smaller place that Madison Square Garden or the Barclays Center. The only advantage of the Louis Armstrong stadium is that it will be an outside place, like the previous Turki event on May 2 in Times Square. The roof is retractable in case of Rain Freak, sometimes in New York. It is one of the green states.
The fights
Edgar Blangga vs. Hamzah Sheeraz – Main Event
Shakur Stevenson vs. William Zepeda-Co-Featura
Alberto Puello vs. Subriel Matias
David Morrell vs. Imam Khataev
Regular fans will be happy to attend the struggle instead of being excluded, as we saw with the Times Square event. The crowd for this event was a few hundreds of VIPs carefully selected, many of them rich millionaires. The fights were terrible and an example of what is happening with the bad elaboration of matches.
It is questionable if the place will be sold, because none of the fights resonates with the New York crowd. Although Berlanga is from Brooklyn, it is not a large enough name to bring a crowd of 14,000. Shakur is from Newark, New Jersey, and he is not very popular in this state either. Turki obviously allowed the event to be half full, but it may have been better to stage this card in the 5,600 -seat theater in the Madison Square Garden in New York. In this way, a sale would be guaranteed.
Berlanga has not done it enough for his career to have a great audience. Turki would have been a better idea to find a popular fighter who could lead the event. Shakur would still be a good co-casuality and Berlanga would be perfect for the third struggle from the top.
