Mayweather Oritiz had 3,052 unsold tickets and 1,268 comps

He's not going to bet. He's reaching for anything negative to say about Mayweather.

I REALLY want him to bet.

Pacquiao's fights with Hatton, Margarito, Mosley or Cotto did not do even $9 million TOTAL in gate. And Arum is claiming that Pac-JMM 3 is at $10 million ALREADY?

That is the easiest Benjy I'll ever make.

BELIEVE ARUM IF YOU WANT....

Arum: Fight sold out
MANNY Pacquiao’s fight against Shane Mosley on May 7 (May 8 in Manila) at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas has been sold out, according to promoter Bob Arum.

In a report by BoxingScene.com, Arum was quoted as saying that closed circuit sales in Las Vegas "are very strong, with tickets available at MGM properties."

The fight will be available on Showtime Pay Per View.

"Well, this is a legitimate sellout. There is not a ticket to be had. I mean, there are zero tickets available. You can’t get a ticket for the love of money. At the box office, at ticket master, I mean, it is absolutely sold out," Arum was quoted as saying.

"I just think that the fans are in a lot of ways smarter than the media," said Arum. "The bottom line is that they, meaning the fans, know that Pacquiao-Mosley is going to be a really, highly entertaining fight."

The fight’s sellout ensures a $9-million-plus live gate atop pay-per-view projections that indicate this will be Pacquiao’s richest bout yet, thanks to the involvement of CBS, and capable of becoming the most lucrative pay-per-view fight in history.

So your b*tching about roughly 200-300K in revenue...really?

We get it bro, Floyd is king in America, as an American in his hometown

smh

BAD! Pac would have sold it out in two hours hitting a heavybag with no undercard.

[Medved]

A top 15 gate (ALL-TIME) against Victor Ortiz?

Name a time when more tickets were sold with a less commercial opponent.

EXCELLENT GATE.

TOP 15 GATE IN LAS VEGAS

These gates are Pathetic compared to Mexico and Germany.

Keep saying "top 15 gate" when its top 15 for STATE OF NEVADA.

This is funny cuz I don't really care, but *****s talk about it all the time lol..

Pac sold 40K+ twice in a place that isn't even a boxing town.

Who's the bigger draw again?

EXCELLENT GATE.

And don't forget that the Vegas gate was only half of the equation. Canelo fought in LA and was viewed on the big screen live via satellite in Vegas. After he fought the big screens were raised to the ceiling then Floyd and Ortiz entered the arena.

[Pocket Dogs!]

IMO I don't like either Mayweather or Pac but if this was a Pac fight that had 3,052 unsold tickets and 1,268 comps, the *****s were celebrating and praising their "God".

Fact: Pac sells more tickets to this fights than Floyd albeit at lower prices.
Fact: Floyd sells more PPVs than Pac.

Ticket sales is all about generating Money.. so lets see:

Pacquiao-Margarito Live Gate $5,404,760.

$Pacquiao-Clottey Live Gate 6,359,985

To clue you in, Mayweather/Ortiz had a larger live (ticket) gate then Pac's last fight, and the two before that.

Try another spin people. Always trying to turn something good into bad, and dont even know what some of yall are talking about.
