Comments Thread For: Mayweather vs. Cotto: Las Vegas Business Breakdown

[Ray Corso]

The "power" to push back a court date comes from the power of collecting....................TAXES! Do you actually think a boxer who portrays a "gangsta" goofball and exhibits money on all his videos has any power verses the "Goverment"?? Fans, get a grip, he's a pug who generates revenues for alot of people thats only thing descent about this kid. He chose the role of the "heel" (bad guy in society) and he'll soon recanter it when boxing is over. Why do you think he keeps a distance from Sr.? Ray.

And thats just the 11 closed circuit in Las Vegas they still have the 400 movie theatres all over the U.S. Also how much murchandise sold in the Arena with t-shirts , food, drinks, when it's showed in a bar Mayweather gets a cut of that also, and over seas with tv rights U.S. and international anyway

You must have read using super pacman vision cause it clearly says those where close circuit tickets OUTSIDE THE MGM. Only 38 seats where empty inside the arena.

4,208 unsold....well if he (Mayweather) is (the face of boxing) how come so many seats went unfilled ????

READ THE ARTICLE MY FRIEND.... the number you are quoting are unsold Las Vegas Closed Circuit TV seats... not Garden Areana seats.

Closed Circuit is the worst way to watch the event for true fight fans, with bars filled with loud patrons uneducated about boxing. You cant hear the corner between rounds and you cant hear the commentary during rounds... its horrible!!!

Thus the reason why there were so many ppv buys AND Mayweather v. Cotto sold more than 250,000 more ppv buys than Pacquiao v. Cotto (oh and by the way... all 1.5 million buys paid $10 more to see May v. Cotto).

But I'm sure you would have the same agrument is even 1 seat went unsold.

im happy for both of them and the sport

umm, you do realize those were for the Close Circuit tickets, right? and those were going for $75 each ticket plus tax, which was really $90. I'm surprised he sold that many CC tickets to be honest

Dont u know how to read? There we're only 36 tickets unsold. The 4,208 unsold tickets were for closed circuit TV. MORON! You must be a *******.

Reading through those 9actard glasses, i see.


Regarding the closed circuit sales, 11 MGM-owned locations reported a total gate of $717,450 - with 9,566 tickets sold and 4,208 unsold.

like someone else said, it was about $90 to watch it on a big screen. Ra-Tard!

anyways.... you know it was gonna make big bucks! why else would the court push back his prison date.

i know a bunch of people that went to vegas that weekend. they said the city was crazy. per the usual floyd fight weekend

you are either ******ed or you cant read the 4,208 seats are closed circuit seats meaning you go to a theater to watch the fight, the mgm was sold out and pacquiao will never make more money that floyd. And you my friend are not a boxing fan but a pacquiao fan.and if you wanna talk about sham fights you should watch all of pacquiao's fights

LMAO....
