In 258 locations across the U.S., some 500,000 people, who had paid between $4 and $10 each to witness the fight on closed-circuit TV, started filing out in bitter disgust. "It was the stinkingest exhibition I ever saw in my life," said one. At Brooklyn's Fox Theater, 3,800 people did not even have that to say; their screen went blank seconds after the fight started.
