No fewer
than 11,500 seats were sold for boxing's first weigh-in for which
tickets have ever been required and those $10 for charity pieces of
paper were changing hands for up to $600 as May-Pac-Mania cranked up to
fever pitch in the MGM Grand Garden Arena.
A
stage setting lavish enough for an Andrew Lloyd Webber musical
extravanganza awaited the two gladiators in Saturday night's Fight of
the Century as they made their way to the scales through the roaring
crowd.
The
fans of Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao had struggled through long
queues and security searches to gain entry, some of them arriving three
hours before the ritual checking of poundage.
