Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Pacquaio: Ticket Brokers Losing Their Shirts

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

It was supposed to be the hottest ticket of the year ... but it's gone cold ... and now multiple investors who tried to flip tickets to Mayweather vs. Pacquiao tell TMZ Sports they're losing BIG MONEY.

As we previously reported, ringside seats hit the market for upwards of $80,000 ... and face value of the crappy seats originally went on sale for $1,500.

A bunch of high profile ticket brokers and investors bought up as many tickets as they could get -- thinking it was a sure bet ... since interest in the fight has been through the roof.

Lol don't feel sorry at all for them.
I thought rich people are smart with their money?

Too funny...these greedy bags of **** tried taking the tickets away from fight fans and now they're getting bent over. I can't laugh hard enough about this one.

Thats why this fight should've been at Cowboy stadium

The broker who bought 80 tickets and only sold 20 can minimally sell the remaining 60 at the price he paid I'd think and would still have made a profit on the 1st 20. The article does not make sense...but I wouldn't feel sorry for a ticket scalper losing money.

Serves the C%$*s right.

They will still be OK.

These people rob the fans of the sport.

Never would have happened. Nevada is the only state that permits Xylocaine usage for one...and Nevada makes all kinds of considerations that favour Mayweather because he can generate so much money for Las Vegas.

Wrong every state allows it and it isn't banned by any drug testing agency.

Xylocaine, also known as Lidocaine, was not listed by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) as one of the prohibited narcotics that cannot be used in-competition. The banned pain killer substances listed by USADA inclue Buprenorphine, Dextromoramide, Diamorphine, Fentanyl and derivatives, Hydromorphone, Methadone, Morphine, Oxycodone, Oxymorphone, Pentazocine, and Pethidine.

Additionally, Xylocaine was not listed by the Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) as a prohibited drug. Prohibited substances identified by NSAC include Alcohol, Stimulant, Afrinol or related product, Co-Tylenol or related product, a product containing an antihistamine and a decongestant, certain Decongestants, drugs including Ephedrine, Phenylpropanolamine, and Mahuang and derivatives of Mahuang, and drugs prohibited by World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).

Neither Xylocaine nor Lidocaine were found on the 2009 and 2010 Prohibited List supplied by WADA.

Just because lots of people say it doesn't make it true.
