they priced the ticket right!! $250 for the ringside and $25 for the cheapest. I think this will be a successful promotion. LA where a lot of mex and pinoys is a 3-4 hr drive only. this fight is worth a trip to vegas. Both also coming from 2 impressive KOs. Guaranteed a good fight!!

dont underestimate Donaire's ability to speak good English. he could be a good ambassador to speak for boxing. ESPN FNF could invite him as guest commentator. HBO can make a countdown show. Donaire has this ability, he just need to push it here in the US mainstream.
