link to this Ariza deposition? nothing in the Press.
I can only see this working against Mayweather, Pac getting more motivatedComment

I dont really get how Roach said anything libellous, calling out the drinks. Mayweather Sr has just said something far more libellous
And lets not forget, under Ariza, Brandon Rios tested positive for a PED which has got many athletes long Bans ..Comment

Arum sounds like he's brewing a lawsuit after the fight...Comment

Here's the thing about rich people. They are willing to pay top dollar for something but when they do they want the best. If you think a high roller is going to pay $5000 (marked up from $1500) to sit in the last row of the arena you're insane. The ringsides and lower bowl seats will all have been sold via brokers and the MGM to the high rollers, no question about that and those will fetch top dollar even going into the $100,000's.
But these rich fu**ers wouldn't be caught dead in the nosebleeds, never. For them it's a status thing, they'd never be caught dead sitting up there with the riff raff.
Second, it's about value for their money. The rich are very big on that. If they are going to pay through the nose for something they want quality.
And third, it's about service. They want to be taken care of. Drinks for free and brought to their seat for them by young hot wait staff, not waiting in line for a luke warm hot dog and being made to pay for a shi**y Tecate beer.
Sitting last row in the corner of the arena in the nosebleed sections isn't going to cut it for the rich and privileged. They would find that offensive and unacceptable.
It will be a buyers market for upper bowl tickets through scalpers a couple of days before the fight. That said you're still going to pay minimum $3K for a **** seat.
The people with real dough will never find those types of seats acceptable.Last edited by Kenny Blankenship; 04-21-2015, 06:08 AM.Comment

LOL- Why do you guys even care?
LOL, why do people here even care? Who's actually going? Really?
I have a friend who will be going to Vegas, just to be there, but has no aspirations to get a ticket for the $ vs Pacman fight. He's sweating bullets because of the closed circuit tv restrictions that apparently will prevent establishments from transmitting the fight, and competing with the hoards of people who will be going "just to be in Vegas that weekend". He might have to stay at his hotel room (MGM!!) and ORDER the freaking PPV fight that's happening in the same building!!
As for whether TMT is making a mockery of the ticket process, I don't think so. I just think most if not all of the tickets have been sold through brokers to clients who can afford them, leaving overpriced crums for the rest of us (the 99.9999999%).
Floyd will NOT pull out, relax. He's never been as focused and as determined to beat anyone. My only worry is that he over-trained.
It's an almost guarantee that the fight will be the best selling PPV event in history, so relax. By itself, it will make FMJ the highest paid athlete for 2015, just like 2014, and we're not even counting the September fight.Comment

I knew some people that had to watch on closed circuit inside the stadium at that Super Bowl. They did get a voucher for a ticket to any coming Super Bowl though IIRC. I would have been splitting skulls if that happened to meOriginally posted by sirron000 View Post
