damn, I'd pay like 200 bucks for a great ticket for that fight, no lie. will never ever happen though

if anyone is a louis ck fan, or bill simmons, they actually have a decent podcast where most of it is about boxing. louis ck is apparently a secret boxing fan and knows his stuff. their first podcast was horrible as very shallow, louis didnt even k know who simmons was which was hilarious, but this one he comes prepared with the sports

You sure appear to be unaware of the demand that a Floyd Mayweather Jr bout brings. It's not "Vegas" it's Floyd.

Whatever you wanna call it, all I'm saying is i don't think you getting in the building for $200

Floyd doesn't out price shyt.. The brokers dictate the price of tix in a major bout like this.. Your ticket will say 125 but you will have payed 750.

Box office gets like 10 percent of the tickets which go to the scalpels and everything else goes to the brokers

 

[mastermind]

hes gone? thats a fukkin shame

idk if he is gone, but they took him off last week's broadcasts


I think this will all blow over by the fall and no one will care. Roy took roids and no one cares.

True and Vegas PPV fight tickets are overpriced period whoever the headliner is.

According to the WBA, a hand injury to mandatory challenger Hasim Rahman has caused the cancellation of his fight with WBA heavyweight beltholder Alexander Povetkin, which was scheduled to be held on July 14 in Hamburg, Germany. The WBA Championships Committee will evaluate the situation and make a statement later in the day regarding the case.

Throw in anybody and it's a better fight

Former WBC light heavyweight champion Clinton Woods says he’s not surprised that former opponent Antonio Tarver and other prominent American boxers are testing dirty. “I fought in America three times and the testing situation was always joke,” Woods told the Sheffield Star. “In three fights, I had one little test and was told it was only for marijuana. It’s always annoyed me how rife American boxing is with drugs and steroids, but at least they are cracking down on it now and people are being caught. The trouble is that people there will only get fined pocket money.”
