Larry Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 tickets are already spoken for both camps split the tickets to sell themselves and MGM has a portion to sell to their high rollers, word is you have to have a credit line of $250k it's either you know someone from either camp, or you go to the casino directly and be ready to fork over truckloads of cash.

Panis ito sa mga maraming senador o congressman na pupunta sa las vegas lol. Seriously, its definitely gonna make guiness world record, and hopefully the fight itself lives up to it. For the most expensive fight ever, Manny has to come up with the cheesiest entrance music. Its even in Filipino which wont be understood by non-Filipinos in the audience. Quote Link to comment

Larry Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Troubling news http://espn.go.com/boxing/story/_/id/12736671/floyd-mayweather-manny-pacquiao-contract-not-signed Floyd Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao contract still not signed Eleven days before the fight between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao, an actual contract for the bout to take place at the MGM Grand still has not been signed.Top Rank promoter Bob Arum told ESPN.com on Tuesday that he wasn't signing the contract that he received a draft of on April 15 because it wasn't what he agreed to when the MGM, Mayweather Promotions and he signed the term sheet a couple months ago."We agreed that we would all be signatories on the final contract and then they sent us a draft of the agreement and it excluded us," said Arum, who promotes Pacquiao.Not being a signatory to the contract means that Top Rank wouldn't have control of decisions during the fight, including in-arena production, video content and music."They don't want us to have any say," Arum said. "So whether they came up with the deal between Mayweather and MGM before or after our agreement, they've committed fraud either way. That's what we're enmeshed in."Arum said later Tuesday night that, after asking for three weeks, he finally received the manifest, which carves out who gets seats where."It's one of the things I was most concerned about," said Arum, adding that he thinks it's possible the contract gets signed Tuesday night or Wednesday morning. more at the link ------- Quote Link to comment

Edmund Dantes Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 tickets for the general public sold out in 1 minute! Hmmmm now I see the marketing strategy of TMT. Nga naman, releasing tickets days before the fight would mean only those willing to pay the expensive price will get them. 16800 capacity ng MGM, 1000 lang binenta sa public. The rest hahatiin sa mga promoters, sponsors, VIPs, and high rollers. Sabagay, asahan natin na celebrity studded ang laban na ito. I am really interested kung sinong celeb ang confirmed na nasa ring side. Quote Link to comment

Edmund Dantes Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 What are your your predictions coming into this fight? Mayweather via decision or late stoppage. Mayweather will do the necessary adjustments to deal with Pacquiaos onslaught. He will try to use his own aggression against him. Quote Link to comment

Larry Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 ticket prices are insane! http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/the-turnstile/mayweather-pacquiao-secondary-ticket-market-predictably-insane-203909809.html See that photo right there. That's the view of the Mayweather-Pacquaio fight $16,100 will get you. http://l2.yimg.com/bt/api/res/1.2/zKS2bWHM4IskjfgmM7gbFQ--/YXBwaWQ9eW5ld3M7Zmk9ZmlsbDtoPTU4ODtpbD1wbGFuZTtweW9mZj0wO3E9NzU7dz05Mzg-/http://l.yimg.com/os/publish-images/sports/2015-04-23/ea491710-e9f7-11e4-8cc3-df79816e5eba_Screen-Shot-2015-04-23-at-1-13-31-PM.png.cf.jpg That's for one ticket mind you, so if you're bringing someone else, double it.Which comes in at a bargain in comparison to a ringside seat, which will cost you a cool$141,575.25 on StubHub. Don't be short the 25 cents.(I can think of at least one person crazy enough to spend $141K for a single ticket, only problem is he'll be inside the ring that night.)A full nine days before the megafight is to be staged at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas and tickets finally went on sale to the public Thursday. About 500 of them.That many!I tried to get them. No luck. But 200 or so were available on secondary sites. Face value for the cheapest was $1,500. What you'll have to pay: $6,177 on SeatGeek.

Larry Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 excellent breakdowns of the May Pac fight from the people that know them best - the 5 common opponents both men faced http://espn.go.com/boxing/story/_/id/12746958/five-common-opponents-break-mayweather-pacquiao excerpts: ODLH "My head goes with Mayweather, my heart is with Pacquiao. I like Pacquiao. I like what he stands for, what he believes in, I like his fighting spirit. I respect the boxer [Mayweather] but I love the fighter [Pacquiao]. Manny Pacquiao loves fighting, he loves getting hit, being in a brawl. He's used to it, his mind and body. Standing outside and boxing is not him. Mayweather is not used to being in a brawl or fight. That's not who he is. If Mayweather boxes him and figures out how to keep Pacquiao at distance it will be a long, dull, slow fight Mayweather wins easily. But if Pacquiao can surprise Mayweather in the first three rounds and make it a fight and make him think, that is to his advantage. Don't make him think for 30 seconds. You have to make Mayweather think for every second of every round. He's not used to that. Mayweather likes to be in his comfort zone and not exert unnecessary energy. "I had good whiskers, I had a good chin," he said. "I can honestly say that for me personally they weren't big punchers but I have to give Pacquiao the upper hand because his past fights have proved that he has that one-punch knockout power. He can also wear you down with the volume of punches he throws. There is more of a sting to his punch that kind of breaks you down and knocks you out. "Mayweather's punch is more the kind that breaks your rhythm. It gives you the confidence that he's not going to knock you out because it's not powerful but it exposes you. It allows you to go straight in knowing you won't get knocked out but you can't hit him. It's a power that's OK but it's nothing special." Cotto "I think it's going to be a really tough fight. Manny has his advantages. Floyd has his advantages. But working with Freddie Roach the past two fights, I know what he is capable of doing and I think he is going to get Manny to see Floyd's mistakes and Manny is going to take advantage of them," said Cotto, a four-division titleholder, who shares Hall of Fame trainer Roach with Pacquiao. "I'm rooting for Manny Pacquiao. I think the quickness of Manny is going to have a big impact on Floyd's performance. "Manny can move from here to there in less seconds than Floyd and that's going to be a big advantage for Manny, [but] Floyd is a strong boxer." Cotto declined to make a pick but added, "I believe they have the strength and the one who attacks is going to be the winner. Also who is going to be stronger mentally? That is very important."MosleyMosley went on to describe what it was like being in the ring with both men.With Pacquiao: "When I first got into the ring and he was throwing punches in bunches I felt like I could get away from him. It wasn't hard to get away from him but the thing was I couldn't throw any power shots and then he knocked me down [in the third round] and I couldn't really load up. And my left Achilles was injured and I had blood blisters on my feet."With Mayweather: "When I hurt him in the second round I was like, 'Wow! I got him.' I rocked him and I thought I'd knock him out. Then he got away and the bell rang and I missed my chance."Mosley is picking Mayweather because "I think he is going to be able to move away from Manny's power shots. If I could get away from Manny's power shots, Mayweather can get away from him and pot shot him. Mayweather has the power to knock him out but Pacquiao has the power as well."Mosley also brought up the fact that if Mayweather has one area where he is not superb, it's against southpaws, which Pacquiao is. "Floyd has had a problem with southpaws before," he said. "Mayweather likes to lean over to his right side and Pacquiao likes to throw the left hand down the pipe and maybe that happens. He has a great straight left hand."Hatton"The first five rounds I gave Floyd a good go. It was close," Hatton said. "Then it was apparent it was a different level than anyone I boxed before. His timing and his speed were great. I never saw those punches. You're not gonna beat him boxing. He has that shoulder roll and fantastic defense, but he also fought me up close."He likes to fight on the back foot, but he seems to find a way to win against any style opponent like he did against me. When I fought Manny, I think the training camp could have gone a bit better. First thing I noticed about Manny was his speed like in the Floyd fight. But he was heavy-handed, a lot more heavy-handed than Floyd. He punches were more explosive. Floyd is more calculated. Manny clipped me with a lead right hook and even the non-power punches felt very, very heavy-handed. He's hard to read. He shuffles fast with his feet, moves in and out and has no real rhythm. That's gonna be a massive problem for Floyd because Manny's footwork is great."I think the reason I gave Floyd so much trouble early on is I moved in quick on him and Manny is faster than me. If Manny goes in and out, in and out, like he did with Oscar and lands the punches and gets out he will give Floyd problems. But Floyd always seems to find a way no matter who he fights."That is why Hatton is picking Mayweather to be victorious.JMM"It's a big responsibility to say who will win that contest," Marquez, a four-division titleholder, told ESPN Deportes. "But if we're talking in boxing terms, Mayweather knows how to handle himself in the ring very well and even knows how to get his opponent to fight at his pace and he takes advantage of that."Pacquiao's punch and speed will be important, but the main objective is to land his best shots. [Pacquiao is a] very dynamic fighter who likes to turn sideways to not get punched and handles counters well."It is difficult to give a conclusion on the result because if the fight [goes the distance] it will undoubtedly be a unanimous-decision win for Mayweather. Both have excelled in Las Vegas. Mayweather handles himself very well [when it comes to] the distance with the jab, right hands and counters. For Pacquiao, he will have to move his waist quite often and penetrating his opponent's guard will be vital [in order to win]." Quote Link to comment

shadow555 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Almost everyone says that Pacquiao will only win if the fight will not go to a decision. Now I wonder what will happen if it does go to a decision and the decision is for Manny?!!! Will all hell break lose kaya? Floyd losing from a decision? His Olympics big all over again? Still, oh man I'd really don't want it to go to the scorecards! Quote Link to comment

If Floyd does this he will get hurt badly, he can't stay in the pocket with Pac, he's fast but he's not that fast to avoid, and time everything. this is more hype or mindgames from TMT Quote Link to comment
cxxxavier Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I'd like Pacman to win!FMJ will be a tough nut to crack.... My guess.... it will be a draw! good for business (Mayweather and Pacquiao), a rematch in the making or better yet a trilogy. Quote Link to comment
