Mayweather-Alvarez brought in $20m at the gate, and Mayweather-Pacquiao is believed to be a far bigger fight ($30m is a reasonable point to start from imo)
On 50,000 tickets sold, you're still looking at $600 per ticket. Even if you price the ringside seats at $5,000 per seat, there's no way to generate the type of revenue expected and charge the "average boxing fan" less than $200 for a ticket.
