hey, baby of boxing scene.
it comes down to ticket prices and site fee.
you can make more money in a stadium if the ticket prices are the same.
hell you can make more with lesser prices as long as you sell more.
the reason vegas gets fights is they can pay a lot more because while stadiums/arena pay according to the gate, casinos are also paying for the buzz/foot traffic to vegas.
that's why vegas/AC gets fights.
plus few fights can attract stadium size crowds.
for some big fights LV has made temp outdoor arenas before. why you ask?
child, so they can sell more tickets.
CHILD, because the MGM arena wasn't built until late 1993
Right, so Sr. knows everything about who Floyd is going to be fighting for every single fight, yet now, he thinks that the fight may be on the way? He doesn't know schit about boxing and he is tired of hearing people bash his lil baby boy over being shook of the Pacmonster.
This is his own attempt at damage control, he knows Floyd don't want it and he is preparing to throw lil Floyd under the bus when it turns out that he ran away from the fight again.
as soon as the fight is announced youll be saying floyd was forced
:lol1::lol1: sh*it gets me every time but but he drew 40k+ in 1 night!
Lol and his gate was 3 million. Canelos a good kid and all but he's just not that dude.
Won't be long now before BIGPOPPAPUMP creates about 3 different threads based on the same article. :rolleyes:
I think they can get an easy 5 out of it.
Canelo vs. Kirkland could draw 60,000 fans in Texas, Why isn't Mayweather vs Pacquiao on that same arena?
Canelo-Kirkland isn't out drawing Chavez Sr.-Pea.
Just not happening.
The children of Boxing Scene don't understand economics. It's about dollars, not eyeballs. Mayweather-Maidana had 16K at each fight. And each fight still did more than 2x the live gate revenue than Froch-Groves II which had 80K in attendance.
If it was the audience that mattered, they could stage this fight for free at Chicago's Grant Park and over 1M would attend. So what? It's all about the money.
