    I just bought tickets for the Pacquaio Rios fight!!! I got A reserve at $500 each...Semi Ringside were $1,500 which is a lot. Hope the A reserve seats are good enough.

    I am super excited about this!! Always wanted to go to a major fight like this...i know its not a superfight but its still pretty big.

    Anyone else going?

    what do you do for a living to make 500 a month?

    im an apprentice sparky (3rd year) and i make about 530 a week

    when qualified if i move to commercial i could easily earn 2-2.5k a week

    Awesome, man! Enjoy it. It might not be the most meaningful fight in boxing, but it'll definitely be one of the most exciting.

    Apprentice Sparky? Is that an electircian assistant?

    I managed to get 2x ringside seats and will be there, not sure if it was worth the money as the cotai arena has pretty good seats all around (steep like the mom grand in vegas) you won't have anything to worry about

    Thanks for the reassurance about the tickets man...i think it should be ok because as you say the seats are quite steep..i had planned to get ringside so I could really see the speed and feel the power but 2 tickets for $1,500 each plus hotel and flights was starting to get pricey...we booked a suite at the Venetian so its gonna be a great weekend.

    I am gonna bet BIG on Rios as I do think Pacquaio is simply not focused enough to fight any more...this is the ONLY thing in Rios life and his focus will be 100%...for Manny this represents only 30% of what is happening in his life...THAT will be what decides it after Manny whales on Rios and sees hom there grinning back at him.

    Yes Rios is already punch drunk.
