WOW!!! These prices are outrageous, but it’s all about supply and demand, and there will not be an empty seat in the arena. I’m also stunned by the MGM Resorts closed circuit viewing prices. I’ll catch the rerun a few days later, and save the cash for my next trip to Vegas. LOL
You’re correct about the pricing. Very over the top. The $150 for viewing is twice as much as previous Mayweather fights. They’ve done a great job hyping the fight with mainstream media. I’ll follow the fight on twitter and that’s about it. Mayweather fights are usually boring and they always pay me. 🙂
Marc, do you think Pacquiao has a shot, or do you think you’ll be making another bank deposit with a Mayweather win? LOL
Mayweather should win. His skill is never getting hit and that goes a long way to another boring win. Since it will go the distance there will be a rematch next year in the new arena where I’ll be on Mayweather again. 🙂
