    According ESPN.com and Bob Arum, Pacquiao-Clottey is on pace to sell out. Apparently they sold 350 tickets Wednesday and are on track to sell similarly today. He says the seating capacity may be expanded from the 45k originally planned if the demand increases.

    Article doesn't seem like much other than Arum trying to get quoted to sell more tickets.

    Go to ticketmaster, you can get 10 seats together anywhere you want. 45k my ass.

    Good news, knowing margarito isn't on the card almost makes me want to go to this fight.

    Will Mayweather-Mosley be the undercard?

    As much as I think this is great for boxing, let us not get ahead of ourselves here. This is Arum as the source. Remember his 2 million buy comment for Pac and Cotto that Dan Rafael debunked several weeks later?

    I would not be surprised it would get 40k+ but I will wait until a non Arum entity confirms it.
