Mayweather vs McGregor Ticket Info & Ticket Prices

June 16, 2017 by

You’ve obviously heard that Floyd Mayweather just announced that he’s coming out of retirement to fight Conor McGregor and now you’re wondering: is it even possible to buy tickets to the Mayweather vs McGregor fight?

The answer is yes (see available resale Mayweather tickets here). The Mayweather vs McGregor fight date is set for Saturday, August 26th at the T-Mobile Arena on the Las Vegas Strip.

The best way to gauge what ticket prices for the Mayweather vs McGregor fight will be is by using the Mayweather vs Pacquiao fight ticket prices as a good recent precedent. Unfortunately, like most events, due to the sheer demand, tickets are allocated / sold entirely different for once-in-a-lifetime events like these fights. The face value for Mayweather’s previous fight was between $1,500 to $7,500. Meanwhile, only 500 tickets were ever released to the public for sale at $1,500. Because the fighters and promoters were fighting over terms up until two weeks before the fight, tickets did not go on sale until April 23rd, which was just 10 days before the fight took place on May 2nd, 2015.

Comparison for Mayweather vs McGregor Ticket Prices

The final contract for the last Mayweather fight allocated the remaining (16,000) tickets in the following matter:

  1. MGM got 40 percent of the tickets
  2. Mayweather Promotions received 30 percent of the tickets
  3. Pacquiao and Arum’s Top Rank Inc. received the remaining 30 percent of tickets

Although the way tickets were allocated and sold for the last fight was contentious, we expect the allocation of tickets for the Floyd Mayweather vs Conor McGregor fight on August 26th, 2017 to be similar.

Here on TickPick here’s how ticket prices and availability played out for the last fight:

  • Cheapest tickets sold: $2,795
  • Average ticket price paid: $5,215
  • Most expensive tickets sold: $11,150
  • Number of tickets that became available on resale marketplaces: 2,480
  • Average listing price from announcement:  $12,590

Mayweather vs McGregor Ticket Prices

Even once the plans for the onsale date and distribution get announced, the prices for tickets will constantly change. We at TickPick believe that prices will follow a similar trend to Mayweather’s last fight versus Pacquiao. In that case, the best deals were available the day before the fight. With that said, since it’s been two years, ticket prices across the board continue to rise and for events such as the Super Bowl we continue to see demand drive up prices to record levels every year.

Here are few things that we believe can impact ticket prices for the Mayweather vs McGregor fight:

  1. T-Mobile Arena – this venue has 4,000 more seats than the MGM Grand (where the last Mayweather fight took place)
  2. Press Conferences – There’s no question that McGregor and Mayweather are two of the best hype machines in the business
  3. UFC & Boxing – The audience is going to be an even broader audience, possibly increasing demand
  4. Hiatus – Mayweather’s retirement has subdued his following and it’s going to be tough to get back to where it was at the time of his last fight
  5. Odds – So far, the odds for this fights are set at 11:1 versus Mayweather’s previous fight that had odds set at only 2:1

So even though no tickets are available today, if you’re interested in speaking with top-notch ticket agents you should call TickPick to learn more about what options are available to you at 845-538-4567.
