Cheapest seat is ~$56 after service charges. If there were a couple more decent fights on the card, I might have considered going (or if tickets were much much cheaper). But even if they had hypothetically had Marquardt/Woodley on this card, I don't think my interest would have been piqued.

Hopefully it's a fun card. Probably will DVR it and watch after the Chargers preseason game. Just realized that they're going against the Chargers and a Giants/Padres game locally. That probably hurts ticket demand even more.

Probably not with the fights on this card.

Rousey isn't enough to bring in the crowds.

Wow, those are UFC prices. Similar seats were $30 face value in Columbus. I'd certainly go to this event for that price, but $45 face value is pushing it.

SF needs to get their **** together, they have had better fights on their last couple under cards. They have little depth & should know that. Instead they waste some of their better talent on under cards that get very low #s (Healy, Hirota, masvidel, Mein etc).

Perplexing.

$56 after service charges is definitely not "UFC prices".

It's definitely not Rousey/Kaufman prices either. Attending this turd would be a waste of a Saturday night.

I don't know what people expect for prices. I've seen local level shows filled with mostly amateurs that are 35-45 bucks a ticket. Obviously a card with some actual MMA talent will cost you.

Ronda Rousey vs. Sarah Kaufman by TKO

Pulling for Kaufman and calling the upset (Canadian pride).

Those were the prices for the last event I looked into possibly going to, before deciding the flight was too expensive.
