I would never pay that amount for a mismatch such as this...what a rip-off.

A Bargain in comparison to the De La Hoya-Mayweather ringside seats.

True, but you'd be paying to be ringside at an actual fight, not some glorified sparring session.

Thing is, the DLH fight is at the MGM grand, so think of everything else you're getting into the bargain, and it's for one of the biggest fights in boxing history.
Compare that to getting a beer in a plastic glass, and a hideously overpriced burger and the delights of Cardiff's nightlife. I know which I'd rather shell out on.

Really? I always viewed Calzaghe-Manfredo on a par with De La Hoya-Mayweather. After all who has De La Hoya ever beat?

De La Hoya and Mayweather won't be a fight, It will be Mayweather beating on a Past his Prime De La Hoya who made himself inactive.

There seem to be enough guys who will happily pay up.

Mayweather v De La Hoya will never live up to the hype. Too much of a size difference.

Neither will Calzaghe-Manfredo, too much of a class difference

Can`t believe anybody would be stupid enough to buy tickets for a Calzaghe fight this early....don`t he pull out of the fight a month before...then move the fight to manchester?
