    Try calling, you get better selection of tickets when you call. Buy tickets online and they want to price gouge. Usually they inflate the price online. However, my concern is availability of tickets. I don't want to take a day off from work so I can be on the phone with Ticketmaster hours before the tickets go on sale. Last time I did that was Hatton/Mayweather. I was on hold with Ticketmaster two hours before the tickets went on sale. When I finally spoke with a ticket agent the jerk told me the fight sold out five minutes after the tickets went on sale which was bull****. I later found out Ticketmaster sold a lot of tickets to independent ticket brokers long before the tickets went on sale. Few days later brokers were selling tickets for a minimum of $1200 dollars - and those were the cheap seats. **** that

    you said previously vegas was the right place to hold the fight.

    brit`s will have to multiply this price by 5 times to watch the fight and most of them will have everyday run of the mill jobs and have to have fingerprints/background checks /fill out dossier`s on them selves/pay the american govt $50 for the privalage of filling out the form
    /do cartwheeels while bending over backwards/ etc etc, and even then they might not get into the actual venue because the capacity is limited.

    pac supporters have the same problems as well.

    $1,200 brits would bite your arm off if that is all they have to pay.

    Yes I did say Vegas was the right place to hold the fight, Sean. I stand by words. Weather the fight is held in Vegas, New York or the middle of Kansas (no pun intended on Kansans), tickets will always be astronomically high in a "free market" capitalist society.
