    Started at $50. 50, 100, 200, 300, 500 and 700. Quite cheap. A similar selling Pacquiao PPV, Pacquiao vs. Hatton, tickets started at $150. 150, 300, 500, 750 and 1000.

        Pac fights is more impressive. The mexican fan base carried that PPV and anyone who says any different is a nuthugger.

          poll & hate to come..............


          I think you have to take Mayweather's 18 month lay off into perspective. The anticipation of him fighting again would make even a casual boxing fan wanted to see it. That's what made 1 mill PPV buys..

          No matter what anyone says, whether your a Floyd fan or Pacquiao fan Floyd is good for the sport of boxing. People love to hate him.

          Just like when Jordan left the game of basketball and then made his return. His comeback was a spectacle. (Im not comparing Floyd to Jordan just comparing an athletes comeback to the sport.)

            attendance alone, a SINGLE person spent a minimum of $100 if they showed up at the stadium. final price for a $50 ticket is 70-80 after taxes and fees.

              Taxes and fees apply to other events as well. Mayweather vs. Marquez started at $150, but that's without taxes and fees.

                who has the bigger fanbase? clottey or marquez?


                You dont think marquez legendary wars vs pacquiao boosted his image to the american mainstream fans?

                which country has more people in the U.S.? Ghanaians or mexicans?

                What pac did is a lot more impressive than what floyd did. it shouldnt even be close.

                    I think the gate had a lot more to do with the venue then the fight.

                      The Pac-Clottey fight was expected to sell out and do over 500k buys, Mayweather-Marquez did better than anyone expected.
