With still more than two months before the event, tickets have already gone on sale for Elite XC's third installment of "Saturday Night Fights on CBS," which is scheduled for the Bank Atlantic Center in Sunrise, Fla., on October 4.
The early release of the tickets is more than likely related to the poor ticket sales the "Unfinished Business" event produced in Stockton, Calif., last Saturday. Elite XC barely managed to sell half of the tickets they printed for the show and couldn't even give away the rest.

It's hard to blame Elite XC, however, because not only did it have to put the event together on short notice, but Stockton wasn't the first choice for a location. The original plan, remember, was to run the show from St. Louis, Mo., but the promotion couldn't find an available arena, which left them scrambling to put it together in Stockton on even shorter notice.
Having an extra month or so to sell tickets should definitely make a difference in ticket sales. Plus, this is Kimbo Slice's hometown, and he didn't have a hard time breaking the live attendance record at the Bank United Center in Miami when he fought Tank Abbott back in February.
With him confirmed to be in action on this card, there shouldn't be a problem selling the place out anyway.
In fact, you might want to get your tickets now if you plan on going. It wouldn't be surprising if the show sold out before fight night. Especially if Kimbo is fighting Brett Rogers ... or anyone else credible.
