    See that's the problem...it has nothing to do with whether you're a Floyd or Manny fan, but that's what you guys want to dumb it down to....

    The average American family makes $40- something thousand dollars a year, so in other words, the average football fan cannot afford the super bowl either...but I don't see everyone complaining about that every year.

    The only point I was trying to make, was that we ALL saw this coming, we all knew the ppv was gonna be damn near a bill, and tickets for the fight were going to be overpriced, so why all the complaining when it turns out exactly that way??? The tickets and ppv are going for exactly what the market demands! If you're not going to pay someone else will, and I understand that.

    What bothers me is that ppl either too lazy or too ****** to think clearly will sit here and place the blame on one fighter, instead of living in reality. Like a poster said earlier, if you can't afford it, be upset with the choices you made in life, not with prices being set at a certain point because the demand is high, and please don't blame Floyd, or Manny for that matter. The same things people love about this country, they complain about when it doesn't work in their favor.

    I saw a thread last night where ppl were hitching about what the atmosphere in the arena would be like, because the unrich wouldn't be able to afford tickets. Seriously??? If you need the atmosphere in the arena to hype you up for this fight, you're probably not a real boxing fan, as you guys like to say, and probably shouldn't be watching anyway. The only atmosphere you should be worried about, is the atmosphere where YOU'LL be watching the fight.

      Man shut the hell up. We haters because we want to see the actual fight that we have been arguing about for years but wasn't intended for us without being JACK ASSES to spend that much money to see 2 millionaires fight. I wanted to fly out there for the weekend from Europe. Now I will search for a place where they will show it out here.

        Bull***** man....we have a right to be disappointed. Angry or mad no.... disppointed yes. The average boxing fans made these guys by supporting them and their careers and now that the biggest fight is going down most people can't afford or are not ****** enough to pay these ridiculous prices. Why should we be mad or ashamed of ourselves for not paying or being able to afford an overly ridiculous price for a fight? It's greed from everyone involved plain and simple. I bet you they will want the same non rich fans to continue to support their careers after this fight is over.

          Good points dude.

          Fans have a right to be upset they didn't get a chance to get tickets because they only put 500 on sale, and the worst ones at that. Other than that, they really need to get over everything else.

                I agree with some points. I knew this was coming the moment it was announced. Hell even before it was! Like i said with 200 million to just fighters lets not kid ourselves.

                The only thing i hate is that i feel bad fpr those who couldnt get CC tix and have to buy from thise who are price gouging the crap out of them. Wish i had bought more to help.
