I am a degen but not touching either side of this with a dollar. Also wouldnt spend 1k to go to the fight even with prime seats. Will of course add to their pockets as will buy the PPV with drunk friends.

I actually think the PPV numbers will be weaker than expected as I think the majority of it will come from UFC fans which is a much smaller market than boxing. I dont think the boxing fan is going to shell out the cash for this . Ironically, I dont think it is the main event that convinces the boxing fan to buy this. i think they actually need a "real" undercard fight to get the boxing fan that is on the edge about whether to buy this or not.
Yep. I am a huge boxing fan, and I will be in bed long before this charade even starts. I view this as when the Yankees play some random college team in Florida during Spring Training. It's a total gimmick. I get why Floyd is doing this, he is saying if someone is going to give him $200M, he is going to do it, even if its basically an exhibition. I'll just watch Hulk Hogan v Rocky Balboa from Rocky III.
