    Try to imagine if PAC vs JMM 4 will be held at Cowboys gathering a crowd of 40,000 at average price of only $500 per ticket. It's a $20,000,000 gate.

    Prices for tickets go up as the amount of seating goes down... You're an idiot...

    You're forgetting the glaring fact of seating structure and what people are willing to pay for the view it affords them. A glaring fact you've so negligently left out.

    Find anyone willing to pay 600-700 dollars for a nosebleed seat and I'll show you a short bus waiting to pick them up.

    TX vs LV and Clottley vs Mosley.... In business its good to know you Target audience and buying customers. You can't charge premium price for a demographic consisting of mostly blue collar, working class folks whos annual income is $35K. The average gambler in Vegas makes $35k in one week.

    If you have the same set of boxers dummy. You can't compare PAC vs Somebody to PAC vs. Floyd.

    :lol: Exactly what I was thinking.

    Pac says Floyd should agree to 50-50:
    "lol look at this ***** making **** up. Money May is ok with 50-50

    ESPN claim Floyd has rejected a 50-50 deal
    "Bull****. More Arum lies. Floyd wouldn't do that"

    Floyd confirms saying no to 50-50
    "Poochiao doesn't deserve 50-50. Floyd is right

    :patsch

    it also depends on the event. pac-floyd can jack their prices up since there would be an insane demand. if pac-clottey tickets averages $175 for 36,761 seats, pac-floyd tickets could easily average $300 for maybe 60,000 seats or more.

    True, but I thought the point was to include the "regular folks" that would like to "experience history", or whatever Arum was spinning it as.

    Bottom line is, we all know nothing is wrong with the MGM.

    People will pay for the event and atmosphere.... Being able to say that they were apart of history. Price will play a little role in the deciding factor of attending this event... Those who are going have already made up their minds for this one and price is a non issue...

    Last time I checked, the BIG arena will still be located in Vegas. What demographics you're talking about? Customers still the same but there's plenty of them now in a BIG arena.
