    it was pathetic. you have roughly 5,000 out of 17,000 tickets not sold in the fight capital of the world. And we don't know how many floyds camp bought or how many wanted their money back immediately after the fight like the dudes calling direct tv wanting their money back.

    The # of ppl who left the arena feeling that their money was worth it was probably less than 5%

    And that all time game number is skewed because it isn't adjusted for inflation. In case you morons don't know the fed has been printing money left and right and the dollar is MUCH weaker now than it was back then and if it was adjusted for inflation, this wouldn't be a top 50 live gate

        These gates are Pathetic compared to Mexico and Germany.

        Keep saying "top 15 gate" when its top 15 for STATE OF NEVADA.
        There are boxing matches in Germany and Mexico that dwarf a 9 million dollar live gate revenue? Interesting. Care to provide any figures to back up your claim?

        Who's the bigger draw again?
        Pac-Clottey & Pac-Margarito with 66,000+ tickets sold combined, barely matched the gate revenue of Mayweather-Mosley with 14,000+ tickets sold..

        The tickets for Pacquiao fights are generally CHEAPER which are why they sell more, doofus.

        Mayweather always outdoes Pacquiao when it comes to both GATE & PPV sales. And blows him completely out of the water in both departments when you compare the GATE & PPV #'s they do with common opponents.

          Yes it is good, the gate was 14th of all time if I'm not mistaken.

            Holy ****, get over it man.

            Whats your ****ing problem?

            Always got something ****** and negative to say about Floyd. What the **** are you even doing here. Isnt there a forum specifically for Pac fans? I think you would fit in better over there.

              Yes, or do you think the 50,000 fans in Germany pay in pretzels and beer for their tickets?

              and they dont release the numbers, but doing some BASIC MATH can see they do more than 9m.

              besides, you do realize Nevada's commision numbers arent accurate? They said if a PROMOTER PAYS THE TAX ON A TICKET THAT MEANS IF TICKET IS UNSOLD ITS STILL COUNTED TO THE LIVE GATE.

              How do you think the Klitschko's make 20m+ a fight?

              hint: 40-50k buying their tickets and booze.

              but keep thinking that Nevada has ALL TIME grossing gates in their little Arena's where 30% of the tickets were comped/sold/given out FOR FREE.

              I guess you went to the ***** Math School, previous lessons included:

              1 Wrong + 1 Wrong = RIGHT!

              11 Years in a Decade

              41 > 49

              60% > 70%

                from my experience the tickets in europe are priced 20, 50 & 100$, few going for more. you can't expect expensive tickets in a huge venue, because you can't actually see much from the faraway seats. this works for football, but in boxing you have to be closer.
                so judging from these numbers the typical gate in a sold out 50k stadium would be somewhere between 1 and 5 mil.$. klitschkos also get a lot of money from their sponsorship contracts, iirc.

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

                  EXCELLENT GATE.

                    If they don't release the numbers, what is there to do "basic math" on? How were you able to reach the conclusion that Mexican & German boxing events make a 9 million dollar gate, in your words "look pathethic"?
