So I said $40 million gate in the OP...yeah, how about $74 million?

This is mind-blowing: Arum said they've configured MGM for #MayweatherPacquiao & gate will now be - hold on to your hat - about $74M! Whoa!

So the gate alone on this fight is almost richer than every PPV ever. With the closed circuit revenue in Vegas that's gotta be almost $80 million alone. And I still think they left a lot on the table not fighting earlier so I don't even wanna know what a 2010 fight could have generated.
