    went to their box office to try and score some 'fitty' dollar tix. Guy said, yeah we got some tix. Told him I'd be right back and wait for my friends to return my call to see if they wanted to go. I came back 10 minutes later. New person. She looked up tix and told me the cheapies were sold out. I look at the 100 dollar tix and they are at the top balcony CORNER seats. She told that I better buy before its sold out.:hey:-(

    I like Sugar Shane but not enough to spend 100 bucks from the cheap seats. aye,

    I'm probably gonna kick myself since this may be fight of the year just like the Corrales-Castillo fight that was held at Mandalay Bay

    Mosley is going to have to show up with a walker and a glass of prune juice in his corner for this to be "Fight Of the Year."

    For that cash, I'd rather pay HBO half of it and use the rest for beer and food.

    But that's just me.

    I guess we can see Floyd pissing in on Mosely or Berto's Parade. whoever wins.

    I agree, 100 bucks for nosebleeds?

    Mosely deserves better though and I understand its all about supply and demand but come on, 100 for corner nosebleeds?

    I guess for 100 dollars, I could also go to MB's "Burger Bar" and spend 100 bucks on a Kobe beef hamburger that they advertise.

    And it was only almost 6 years ago that I was able to walk in for 50 bucks for the Marquez-pac fight..

    times are a changin'..

    100 dollars for the nose bleeds?

    I would've punched her in the face.

    I'm already 86th (kicked out) of the Palms. Don't wanna ruin my stay at Mandalay bay.

    Lookin' back, I think they probably did have 50 dollar tix still available. Mandalay Bay also has this little "Fight Museum" where it has a mixture of boxing and MMA stuff like gloves worn by fighters. The most ridiculous item: 2 boxing gloves with the filipino flag and pacman in Swarovski crystals valued at 15,000 bucks.

    an f'n crystal? give me a god damn break.
