Ronda Rousey had stated that she hoped to attend the Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao fight before her Saturday fight against Cat Zingano.
Having heard that thanks to TMZ, Bob Arum (Manny Pacquiao’s fight promoter) promised to make sure that Rousey wouldn’t get any old ticket to the fight, she’d get a ringside seat.

Now, the Daily Mail is reporting that the free ringside ticket is all Rousey’s and that it’s the only free ticket that’s been promised by Arum so far.
The only free ticket promised by Bob Arum for the richest fight of all time is for female UFC star Ronda Rousey, who he heard was preparing to spend all her career fight winnings thus far on a seat as close to ringside as that amount could buy.
As Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao prepare to touch gloves in the biggest fight of the century on May 2, the UFC women’s bantamweight champion will be counting her lucky stars that Arum chose her to be the recipient of the golden ticket.
Considering that it looks like ringside ticket prices are going to be obscene, Rousey has all the more reason to be thrilled by the news.
