There are only four days remaining until Floyd Mayweather and Andre Berto will fight at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, which means that the arena should be just about sold out by now. But it's not. Far from it actually.
According to ESPN's Darren Rovell, there are still about 2,100 seats available for the fight, not including all of the seats that are provided for the promoters. The seats are only going for between $125 and $1,500, which is way less than the tickets prices were for the Floyd Mayweather/Manny Pacquaio fight. And yet, it doesn't seem like there's a whole lot of interest in the fight, which has reportedly led to the MGM Grand offering larger packages that include tickets and hotel rooms as opposed to just tickets alone.
It'll be interesting to see how this fight plays out. No one is giving Berto much of a chance, and there's almost no hype around it. So with expectations so low, could it actually surprise some people by being a decent fight? We'll find out in four days.
