Mayweather/Guerrero gate to exceed $18 million

"Those, though, are only the appetizers for the main event, which will be Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s return against Robert Guerrero on May 4 in Las Vegas. That bout will sell out the MGM Grand Garden and deliver a live paid gate approaching $18 million." - Iole

thats crazy considering boxing people are saying this might be the lowest Floyd PPV in a while, there is like no buzz for this fight at all it seems.

anyway enough of the bullshit mma vs boxing, how many boxing people said mma was a fad and would be gone in a few years?

Um wow. If true.

What's the capacity and what kind of ticket prices?

Spoiler for all those fans paying for overpriced tickets - Mayweather wins by boring decision!

In that case, all undercard fighters should be getting at least $500,000!!!

TuLegit - So pumped for that fight. Guerreros dad is a weirdo though. Phone Post 3.0

Really?

this is a Mayweather fight I'm not that excited for.

Should have been Floyd/Canelo.

Doesnt even look like that will be the next fight either, they want Canelo/Cotto next even though Cotto is coming off two losses in a row.

Floyd is ducking Canelo. He doesn't want my boy Maravilla either. I expect this ppv to do well. 1.2-1.4 million buys IMO.
Undercard is fairly solid too, think I'm gonna order. Phone Post 3.0

COWBOY STADIUM!!!!

Yep.

They want Cotto and are only too happy to get past Trout.

Sadly a Cotto fight will look similar to Trout/Canelo only for 70 bucks on PPV instead of Showtime. Phone Post
