K-1 US promoter Scott Coker, quoted in today’s excellent San Jose Mercury News article written by Mark Purdy, claims that over 12,500 tickets have been sold for the Frank Shamrock vs. Cesar Gracie MMA event at the HP Pavilion (San Jose Arena).
“We are past the 12,500 mark in tickets sales right now,” Coker said Saturday, “and we’re expecting maybe 15,000. If we do that, we will break the American record for paid attendance at a Mixed Martial Arts event, which was 14,200 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas a couple of years ago.”
