Hmmm?
"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
Please explain to me why a boxing match costs 45 dollars to watch

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
Or try $22,000 a ticket for rinside seats to Mayweather V DLH. I think thats the figure I heard!Create Reality said:Hmmm?
Ludicrous!

Just imagining wanting to pay that much for a ticket makes me want to blow my wad.

Because people pay for it!!! Also, the Dollar is plummeting in value - so $45 is minuscule in today's dollar value vs. past's value!!!

Because you will pay for it. But if you don't, one of your friends will. And if they don't, a local bar will. However you slice it, someone's paying for it.Create Reality said:Hmmm?
Supply and demand.
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I don't want to get into big discussion here, but boxing fights cost so much money because the promoters don't give a fuk about the future of the sport or the physical/financial health of the fighters. They wants to make as much money as possible TODAY, rather than building foundations on free TV ala Spike.
This is why MMA is gaining in popularity, despite being less entertaining (most ppl watch MMA for the stand-up anyway, who wants to watch two BJJ experts grapple for 15 minutes?). It is organized and managed much better, with accountable and likable representatives. The charisma and humble demeanor of Dana White vs the corrupt murderer Don King.

Because the people selling them are not the promoters. These are brokers, scalpers, etc. who will throw the highest value and then negotiate it down to a "cheap" $1000/ticket, or whatever they can get for it.
I have gotten into several concerts at a ticket price way below face value because the scalpers wanted to get an outrageous price of having bought an expensive ticket that didn't sell at the asking price and they had to eat it.
I see these guys trying to "dump" these tickets that were bought and taken out of the market with the hope of reselling them.
So, in summary, they can ask for $100,000 for it, yet it doesn't mean somebody will pay for it.
$45 to watch, that is actually a bargain for you. The suggested retail price is $55 for this one fight. PPV's have always been around that range, specially in the last few years.

Agree with you on the first part but no way is boxing more entertaining that MMA. People get KTFO all the time in MMA and it's a lot more fun seeing someone get kicked in the head or choked out.6-heads lewis said:I don't want to get into big discussion here, but boxing fights cost so much money because the promoters don't give a fuk about the future of the sport or the physical/financial health of the fighters.

Does anyone know how much they are getting for this fight?
