    I'll watch it at the Ceasars sports book or some **** then. maybe go to the weigh in, take in the experience of being there and watch it on a huge screen instead if the ticket prices are outlandish

    Ya i'm planning on going.

    Anybody care to hazard a guess at how much ticket would be?

    Also, how hard is to get tickets for a fight like this?

    ha ha, and a Rialto Suite at the Venetian no less! :lol::D
    Think i'll have to try and budget a bit more next itme. Spent far too much money!

    I'd imagine tickets would prob start from around $300. Cheapest tickets for pac cotto were $150. I think it will be a struggle to get them aswell. gonna be a huge demand for this fight!

    This will be ridiculously hard to get a ticket for, there wont be many available to the public anyway and the ones that are will be wanted by 100s of thousands of people.

    I hope it's in Vegas, as the atmosphere is pretty concentrated, which might not be the case elsewhere. And the hotel prices are a bargain as well, especially if you can get a good deal. But I'll be going - not going to miss this one. The Pac Cotto fight was awesome! My first.

    Of course the ticket prices will be outlandish lol. I prefer watching @ sports books too & spend the ticket money to pad my bet instead. But that isn't possible with certain PPV fights in Vegas.

    I was @ MGM Grand for Pacquiao vs Cotto, & FYI for those who want to watch but not pay upwards of $150+ for nosebleeds, $300 for the next tier down, $750, $1k, $2k, etc; they offered tickets at several different casinos owned or partnered with MGM for their closed circuit broadcast. Those tickets were $55 each, which is basically the cost of PPV on TV. The MGM Grand has a huge convention center where they showed the fight on 6 movie theater-sized screens that were lined up in a row. There were a few thousand people just at that one location & the atmosphere was still exciting.

    I was happy with that & happier still that I had more money to bet. But since Mayweather vs Pacquiao is possibly the biggest fighting event to date, I may have to reconsider getting tickets.

    Also consider that, while I think Vegas is the best venue for all mega fights, the Dallas Cowboys' new stadium and 1 or 2 other locations are in the running to host the fight. So, there's a slight chance that it may not happen in Vegas.
