De La Hoya vs. Mayweather at the MGM Grand

One of the hottest fight tickets ever is turning out to be this weekend’s championship battle between Oscar De La Hoya and Floyd Mayweather at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on May 5. Tickets sold out in record time and resells of tickets are currently ranging from $1200 for the upper levels to $7500 if you want to see the action up close.

But what if you don’t want to shell out that kind of money to watch the fight?

For starters, the resort is currently selling tickets to a closed-circuit viewing area set up at the Grand Pavillion. While it’s not like actually being there, the $50 price tag certainly is more affordable. Tickets are available at the MGM Grand box office.

Even easier on the wallet is the viewing party Mist at TI is holding. Enjoy food and drink specials while watching the event on big screen TVs for free.
