Another reseller, Vivid Seats, has a ring-side seat on offer for the princely sum of $87,981 [€74,000]. Handy for Eddie Alvarez, who McGregor defeated at UFC 205 to win the lightweight strip, that he has friends in high places. Alvarez told the 5rounds podcast:
"I love fights and when they have this much build-up around them, I enjoy it. I'm going to the fight. I'll be there, front row. "A buddy, who sold me his house, got me front row seats. We'll be there."Interestingly, UFC president Dana White told talk show host Jimmy Kimmel, last month, that McGregor and Mayweather have bought up their own batch of tickets. He said:
"I'm buying 20 tickets. This is what we have to do. "So Mayweather is buying his own tickets. Mayweather is. Showtime are. We're all buying our own tickets."One imagines 'Money' and 'The Notorious' will be sending that ticket bill right to Showtime so they can be fully reimbursed.
