Tickets for UFC 131 have dramatically plunged to as low as $14 earlier today due to weak sales, with an injury to Brock Lesnar combined with the NHL’s Vancouver Canucks run to the Stanley Cup Finals believed to be the culprit.

$14?!!  Holy ****! Maybe the UFC has gone to the well too many times with their inflated ticket prices and people are getting fed-up.

When I went to 79 I paid $350 for 11th row floor seats and it was $75 for nosebleed.

It's got a pretty good card I'd pay 50 to see it. Maybe Canadians only want to see GSP

But on the floor we got to meet Serra, Rampage, Jardine, Pulver, Hamill, Bruce Buffer and the Tapout guys. It was worth it.

That sort-of sucks.

The show sold so poorly they had to make cheap seats? I thought Canada was behind MMA!?! 

The sport has a ways to go.

When I saw this a few days ago I jumped on Stub Hub to look at ticket prices and was surprised they were low already...I then looked into flights and a hotel and had I had some extra money we would have been flying to Vancouver!
