    Jesus, the ticket sales alone are making this fight one of the biggest purses ever and that doesn't even include the PPV!

    I think McGregor knows he can't beat Mayweather no matter what.

    The only thing he can do now is try and sell the fight to make more money.

    That's why he didn't even want Paulie's help. All he wanted was some footage and photos to help sell the fight.

    Paulie, sadly, didn't realise this at the time (and neither did any of us to be fair), but he should have worked this out by now. Paulie is still doing interviews about their sparring session right up till yesterday. And with every additional interview he does, all he is doing is helping McGregor get richer (unless he is on some kind of commission).

    Paulie is an attention queen. Stick a mic in front of him and he will jump at the chance to talk.

    There have been conflicting reports on ticket sales. LA times reported that it has surpassed the 72 of May-Pac.

    While in the Daily mail and BBC reported that 7000 tickets are available and lots of empty seats.

    I think I concur that LA Times report is accurate with regards to ticket sales.

    The fight is far from sold out when it comes to number of seats.

    Daily mail can be right on the account that there are tickets on secondary markets.

    Only 500 May/Pac tickets were made available to the public.

    Paulie is a little Guido. Soon, he will be hanging out in club toilets looking for a fight.

    The Promoters already made money, but the ticket brokers...

    He has a chance to win because he is in the ring, facing Mayweather.

    May only be a 5% chance, but unless he dies he has a chance.

    In the event he does the unthinkable and pulls an upset, Floyd's dirty meathead team will probably try to attack and hurt him. I hope McGregor is very carefully prepared to defend himself from the dishonorable tactics that may be directed at him.

    I can only see that type of thing happen if Conn pulls a Zab Judah type of foul on Mayweather.

    He's only tough in boxing terminology. He's knows that boxing rules saved his butt last time. If walks up to Conor after the fight he should be prepared for a real ass whoopin mma style.

    Don't underestimate the vileness of those people.
