I mean it's meant to be the biggest fight of the year, it's going to be pricey! The tickets for AJ vs Ruiz 2 were mostly $500-800+. The corner sections were $250 I think? The rest went from $500-14k for ringside vvip. I paid $2k for my ticket (vip2) and it was the first row in the stadium itself (so the first row after floor seating ended). If it's worth it to them, I guess people will pay it. If it's not, they slash the prices, by which point it's usually too late - then comp the rest.
I really hope the fight does well, it's being flooded on youtube just now!

I don't think Al Haymon and Bob Arum have done a good job of promoting this fight. It was announced quite late, they didn't build up a story, and both promoters are lazy and arrogant in thinking they don't need to promote this.
Both sides should have had a constant presence on youtube and other social media...if not the fighters then the promoters. They should have built up the story like since 5-6 months to get people to digest and believe this is the biggest event to be made. Given that Al Haymon is almost invisible and Bob Arum doesn't talk a lot of sense is NOT helping this fight. In fact, the little promotion done is by the fighters themselves.
If you want Mayweather money...you'll have to sweat for that, not sit on your lazy a$$e$ thinking it will "sell itself". Sure, it will but not at the level it should have. Announcing it late was a blunder in my opinion.

It's a good fight, should do decent numbers. Although I'm sure the prices will scare people from going or watching legally.
Ofcourse this isn't going to get anywhere near the numbers an Anthony Joshua fight would produce. Hate it but that's just the way it is. Somebody has to be the cash cow super star.
