Before the fight was even announced, the hotels and promoters had dibs on 99% of the tickets. Hotels use them for their high rollers, etc...the rest go to the ultra-rich...and famous people etc...

The broker I know works with some sports agents or whatever. I paid $7,300 for my ticket (well I don't have the ticket in hand yet). If, for whatever reason he can't procure the ticket then I will watch it at the Foundation Room. Yes, I will get my cash back if he can't come through...

Why would he adopt a different strategy? That's how he wins. He'll put on a good show for four rounds, then play the points game the rest of the fight and mail it in just enough to win a round here and here. He's going to win with that strategy, but it's the most boring shit I've seen, and why I won't pay to watch him again. Originally Posted by Wakeup

Still, I'll probably be suckered into going to a bar to watch it. 10 years overdue. I hope Pacquiao wipes the floor with him.

Just wait a week...it'll be on cable...and I'm pretty sure the result of the fight will still be the same. Although...it is boxing, so no guarantee...
Pac-Man will fight like a wild man for the first couple rds and be tired. Than Mayweather will give him about 10 rds of schooling. Originally Posted by mrlook

I agree with WU's analysis of Mayweather's boring ass but effective strategy.

I'm still curious, but not enough to pay through the nose for it. Personally I'll be downloading the torrent an hour after the fight is over....for free. And giving zero fucks.

Didn't vote because I don't accept the premise...it would surprise me a lot if either fighter dominates; i.e., kicks ass.

It's sounding like most of us experts agree that if the damn fight is not memorable, then Mayweather will get the W...and that is the probable outcome.

But if Pac can cut off the ring, unwrap Floyd off himself when he grabs and brings that forearm up into his opponent's throat, throw about 7 punches for every 4 from Mayweather, and - maybe most of all - not let him rest so much (Mayweather typically boxes about one minute of each round and rests the other two.), maybe then Pac will make it a memorable fight, and he will win.

I fully expect Mayweather to win (not WANT him to, but expect)...
but, I expect to see a LOT more out of PacMan than we have been seeing, neither him or Roach are dumb and they've had a lot of lead time up to this fight, PM may surprise us all!
