"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
Please explain to me why a boxing match costs 45 dollars to watch

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
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.
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

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?
