$0....way too much craziness around that fight for me to wanna be in the middle of it. I'll get a pizza, drink some beverage and watch it in HD while kicking back in my recliner.

I'd spend money to watch Kovalev-Stevenson, Matthysse-Provodnikov, Frampton-Quigg, Gonzalez-Inoue and a few other fights in person, though.

Probably $100. Not really into boxing at all but it will be one of the biggest events in sports. Would be cool to be there live. I've wasted more money watching LSU blow late leads vs. Bama on the gridiron..

If someone offered me a ticket for $100 I would take it.

Probably not any more than that

I'd probably pay about 200 if it was local to me and I didn't have to spend extra money going to Vegas. I'm not loaded and haven't spent 200 bucks on a sporting event in my life. Fight is going to be history so it would be cool to say you saw it live although I don't get too excited about boxing.

$1,500.

The entire night is going to be a spectacle of who's who inside the arena.

Most hyped bout in American boxing since Tyson vs Holyfield. Energy should be electric.

Would not pay to watch it in person.

At best would treat it like a UFC Event and find a bar airing it and get some friends together to watch it and run up a tab.

at this point the only reason to go is to be a part of the who's who of stars that will be there.

Assuming(and it's a big assumption) that my flight and hotel are paid for, I'd pay $500 for a ticket. But it would be less about watching the fight and more about being able to tell people you went

The only way I would go is if I had an all expense paid trip to Vegas along with the ticket. Boxing and other fighting sports are just not that great in person.
First, the fans of fighting sports are just the worst. Think of your typical "City Bar" patron in his element. Now multiply that by 10,000. Just going to the bathroom is a fricking disaster.
Secondly, boxing is fixed. It has been for years.
Third, these guys are welter-weights? Which means a lot of punching and blocking, no knockouts.
Last, as most have said, this fight would have been decent 5 years ago.

I've spent upwards of $1,000 for world cup games and national title games

This isn't as big an event personally to me. I'd top out at somewhere around $400-500
