I'm not sure if anyone is interested in collecting these types of chips, but I figured I would post them up just in case someone is looking for them. I contemplated keeping them myself, as I am a boxing fan, but I'm not really into collecting single chips. I prefer putting together playable sets. Anyways, it took me about 5 trips to Vegas to get these 3 chips, as they are not easy to come by anymore. Some of these fights took place 10 years ago, so I am assuming the chip has been circulating at least that long. After about 6 Vegas trips in the past year, these were the only "Fight" chips I was able to get, and I figured I'd hold onto them as I'm sure there are some that do collect these out there.

I have 3 chips total.
Mayweather vs. Canelo
Mayweather vs. De La Hoya
Mayweather vs. Pacquiao

The price is negotiable, especially if we do the transaction on PCF instead of eBay.

These chips can still be used in the casino today, so they are worth $55 at face value, however, because of the time spent, and rarity factor I am trying to make a small profit for my time and effort in collecting these. They are all in great condition. No major wear marks and the edges are still pretty sharp. I have seen many of these sell individually on eBay for about $60ish each for the $25 denoms, and about $30-$40 for the $5. I'm not an expert when it comes to these chips, but I can only assume that the value will only continue to increase as time goes on. Mayweather, whether you hate him or love him he is undeniably one of the best boxers of our generation and was in a league of his own. All 3 of his opponents on these chips are also very well known/popular fighters which should make these a bit more valuable than some other fight chips still in circulation. For example, I found a De La Hoya Vs. ?? chip as the only other boxing chip I found during my trips, and I didn't think anyone would pay anything extra for a chip with unpopular fighters.

Anyways, the link is below. I also welcome any information about these chips if you know more than I. I am still fairly new to the Poker Chip world, and just learning all that I can. I love Vegas, Poker, Chips, and Cards. I had no idea what I was getting myself into when I bought my first set of "Real" poker chips lol. Since then, I want so many different sets, and I would never even use them all! Thank you for looking!

Perhaps to some collectors; certainly not either one to me.

Good luck with your sale.

Thank you for the info! I am sure someone would find them interesting and would like to add them to their collection, but definitely not for everyone. I may just end up keeping them, but if someone wants them, I'd be willing to let them go for a good price.
