Anyone else surprised...

I'm not surprised to be honest, I think they're just too damn expensive.

Even mediocre seats are $500 and with the shit £ rate it's just not economical. I've got a hotel and flight to Vegas for £460, I'm not willing to spend almost the same again to watch the fight. I'm just going for the weigh-in, atmosphere and to see it in some bar or on a CCTV screening.

Calzaghe Vs Hopkins was similarly overpriced and half the arena was empty. I can't imagine this fight will be like that but the economy and price of tickets explains why it's not sold out.

will the weigh in be in the MGM grand garden arena too? Do you need the ticket to enter? I am going to the fight and arriving in vegas that Friday morning.

They are not that dear in comparison with other fights. I mean the most expensive tickets are $1000. When I looked at ODLH-PBF tickets they went upto $10k+.

It will sell out, just not as quick as usual due to the current economical climate.

I've got a ticket for the fight and have since checked and all $150 & $300 tickets are gone, & I don't believe there are that many $500 ones left. Most of the top tickets won't go until nearer the fight as the guys with money aren't that bothered by going on ticketmaster on the day the tickets go on sale, that's just us commoners who gotta do that
