By Steve Keating April 23 (Reuters) - Tickets for the megafight between Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao finally hit the market on Thursday and unless your name is Warren Buffet or Madonna you will probably have to watch the May 2 bout on pay-per-view. Prices on Ticketmaster ranged between $1,500 to $7,500 and those tickets were snapped up in a matter of seconds. The MGM Grand in Las Vegas is expected to pack in close to 16,500 for the fight but estimates had only 500 to 1,000 tickets going on sale to the public with the rest earmarked for the two fighters, the casino, sponsors and promoters. "This is an extremely unique event for us, we haven't ever seen this," StubHub spokesman Cameron Papp told Reuters.
