Just to show you how expensive it is to get into this one, the back row of the upper deck Section 225 (bottom of the map) is priced at $917.75 per ticket! I spoke to Ryan Frederick who mentioned the largest gate they’ve had is UFC 205, the debut at MSG, which was $17.7 million. They’ve had several shows over $10 million, mostly Conor McGregor fights and a couple others in either Vegas or MSG. He figured, after Jon Jones was going to be added to this card, that they would be shooting for a $20 million dollar gate. Considering the setup (not counting suites), the average ticket price would be $1,064 to hit $20 million so I suspect they may blow past that mark if you look at the remaining prices (assuming they sell the rest of these tickets).

I don't follow UFC maps too closely so I can't answer that but just for an upcoming example, the upper decks for GRASSO VS SHEVCHENKO 2 at T-Mobile are almost 1/9 the cost. Granted, that is not a PPV but still. From the other maps I covered, the upper decks were also nowhere near this amount.
