Here is another link straight to the source.

That's hundreds of tickets, not thousands. Add them up.
I just did. This is minus the luxury box's 46 sections. Which are not on sale.

84 sections 11,884 tickets available give or take. Straight from the T-Mobile Arena Link. Don't know what the max. attendance for this "Fight" is from what I understand t-mobile arena the seating is interchangeable on the floor level. And how many max. per section. If you click on any section all the way around the numbers are about the same.

It's still early on. The indicator is in a big fight the live gate will determine how big of a fight it is.

Just because Mayweather-McGregor are asking these prices does not mean they are going to get them.

Nosebleed seats $2500 dollars x two or more (plus taxes if any) plus air fare, Hotel food etc..Just to see boring Mayweather. Don't think so.

Don't think this "Big Event' is going to go over well. Maybe I will be wrong or maybe I will be right time will tell.

Spot on. This is embarrassing for the sport and Floyd retires after, beating Marcianos record.

This sucks. In fact, you couldn't pay me £5k to watch it.
He's long passed Marciano historically anyway. This won't hurt the sport, I'll be pretty shocked if McGregor goes the distance.
I'll wager he doesn't stop him. And, yes, it is embarrassing.

Day three live gate ticket's are selling like hotcakes :lol:

Don't be shocked if this fight gets called off due to lack of interest.

And no they won't slash ticket prices either. Poor McGregor the thought of a 70 million payday hmm.. Bet he's going to be a little disappointed.

I haven't seen a lot of analysis on this fight.. It's a little bit like Patterson-Rademacher.. Nobody gave Rademacher a chance in Hell and the fight lost money.

And McGregor hasn't accomplished anything like winning an Olympic Gold Medal in Boxing... Exactly why would people want to see this fight???

There is still 6 weeks of time to sell tickets and PPV is how they make most of their money.

The ticket link's don't appear to be genuine. Or it could have been a fishing scheme to see what people will pay. I won't be going or even watching it anyways.

McGregor has a 00000000001 chance to win. I'll pass.

Three days after the Fraud/PAC tickets sold out, the news said that some were being scalped for up to 80,000 US
Don't know if that can be 100% believed.
But the fact is that all tickets for that fight sold out through the legitimate box offices in hours.

If all those wealthy 1 percenters don't get their money's worth..ie there's no knockout or kd's then they will make a ruckus and that will be bad for boxing. The 40 year old floyd better deliver some excitement but if not, thank god for Anthony Joshua our saviour.

Both of the sites you linked to are reseller sites, not official, as tickets are not officially on sale yet. :brick:

Hmmm...even Pete Rademacher had a bigger chance than that.. About a 10% chance.. He dominated the 1st two rounds up to the point he scored a brutal knockdown... Patterson took over from there and murdered PR in 6 rounds.. Floyd should win easy too but McGregor should at least do better than Rademacher -- who also never fought a single professional boxing match but thought he could beat Patterson.

Conor should at least win a round or 2.. I see it ending in the mid to late rounds with a lot of leather swapped.

If your main hobbies include wiping your ass with Benjamins and receiving corporate bailouts from the US government, you'd no doubt buy ringside tickets to this dumb event.
