Anybody going to the Mayweather vs Ortiz boxing match?

That's because the promoters try to bilk every last penny out of you for a fight that isn't worth it. Boxing is so overpriced anymore it's just not worth it, you're better off going to an MMA event where's there more action.

yeah only reason I can figure is the arena is small compared to other sporting events and Mayweather hasn't boxed since may 2010.

I don't really like the crowd that follows UFC it seems like everyone who watches UFC is an aspiring UFC fighter and they try to act hard at the bar and stare you down

That might be in Vegas...but when you go to cards around the US...it's a great atmosphere. Going to a Floyd of Manny fight you're going to a Circus with a bunch of celebrity jocksniffers who get their tickets for free to make the fight look well attended. So I guess you pick your poison.

Stubhub starts at $449, but market is flooded.

wanted to get out there for this....because i love floyd....but its just not in the cards for me for a sept trip out there.....been to pac/hatton and pac/cotto....great weekends...and atmopsheres....pac/cotto was right in the thick of football season....which makes for an awesome weekend...was able to get the hatton tix for free...and the cotto tix for face.....the tix for both fighters upcoming fights seem to be a bit more pricey....i say do it though
