Boxing’s biggest fight in years has reached Super Bowl-level prices in the resale market—and with the bout completely sold out, that’s the only market that exists anymore.
The average asking resale price for the May 2 bout between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao stood just short of $11,000 on Thursday, according to the secondary market ticket site TiqIQ. The mean price is $500 higher than this year’s Super Bowl and trumps any boxing match in the last five years.
The most expensive seat—a fifth-row ringside view—was priced at $77,500. The “get-in” price, or cheapest ticket to attend the event, hit nearly $4,500 on Thursday.
I would just watch it for free the week after the fight on hbo
No, No & NO….
The answer is already inside the question
I love Floyd fights, but I have a household to take care of, and can’t give 4,500 or 90,000. Drop the price a little more and I would definetly take my husband!! We pay stacks for our kids for a family vacation for 7days, not a fight for 36mins if it last that long, and hotel and flight! Can’t do it! PPV here I come!
PPV so I can be up close and personal!
I’m doing good by getting it on ppv
I would have to be rich to do it and i don’t do a lot and this would be like a gift to myself
Only way I would go is if someone gave me a FREE ticket. I’m not dropping that kind of bread on a fight
If i had it i would, but no because i am broke and i have a family to take care of
PPV! Because nosebleed seats are like watching it on TV in SD
