    Does anyone else think there's going to be fans fighting in the MGM grand after the main event finishes? I can envision trouble happening. Good thing to just get the PPV than live seats.

      There won't be any riots or brawls unless Floyd gets clearly beat and gets the gift decision... once the fight is over, people realize it was just a sport.

        Bob Arum
        I'll Hook Ronda Rousey Up
        ... Free Tix to Pacquiao Fight!

        Ronda Rousey can rest a little easier -- she won't have to pay MILLIONS for a ticket to the Pacquiao vs. Mayweather fight ... 'cause she's getting her tix for free ... TMZ Sports has learned!

        The UFC badass told us earlier this week that she was concerned about the ticket prices for the fight of the century -- saying she had extra motivation to win the prize money at UFC 184 tonight so she could afford to go.

        But when we raised the issue last night with Bob Arum -- Pacquiao's fight promoter -- he told us he's not only a HUGE Rousey fan ... but wants to HOOK HER UP with the most coveted tickets in sports.

          At the end of every floyd mayweather fight I have been to (6) there has been trouble because everyone's peed off that floyd has won again!

            Hope Vegas Police are ready for this because lots of emotions, time, and effort has been invested into this from both side, a clear robbery decision against each side will cause this trouble.

              The fighting types won't be in there, live. Not enough of them would afford the tickets.

                I think the main problem with the mgm is there is only one way in and one way out this means you have people waiting in a crushed environment discussing the fights from either support which eventually leads to trouble. im going out for this fight but won't be able to afford the ticket prices

                  I still wonder why nobody takes Floyd to task for being so adamant that the fight happens at MGM which is really kinda small for this magnitude of event.

                  He said he did it for the fans, but the real fans are being left out of this because of the cut throat rate that a real boxing fan can't afford.

                    I suppose it because of the history Las Vegas has with big fights and the amount of money involved with the casinos nobody else in America can compete? what annoys me is that there will be people there with no interest in boxing but just want to say they was there! Even for an event this big you have to be careful of pricing yourself out or biting the hand of that feeds you I.e me and you

                      What about TMT being the lead promoter? this kind of fight the biggest probably in the history will be promoted by the greenest of green promotion company. can they really handle this?
