Will Mayweather fight outside of US before he retires?

[!! Mr. Soprano]

Lol, what international fans?

Of course I'm being sarcastic and responding to the double standards that Americans sadly talk about all the time.

All European fighters HAVE to fight here, otherwise they are ****. But God forbid an American elite goes to Europe, Asia, or anywhere else in the world for that matter.

Living in America, those double standards bother me

Aww whats wrong did I hit a nerve? Least Naz went to the U.S you cant talk **** about that. My point is look at the state of boxing today.

Isnt boxing something like the 7th most popular sport in your country? Obviously all these fights that are happening over there arent helping with its popularity. Plus it shows a lot of heart when a champion leaves their country to fight.

Did Naz get spanked in his own country or not? And answer my question..

[Brandish]

Is Mayweather AND his fans are all about the money?

What about satisfying the hunger of his global fans?

He will never be as great as Ali

name one highly ranked european fighter from 154-140. the only one you have is ricky hatton and he will get crucified on december 8th. if hatton looks halfway decent and is able to make a fight of it then floyd will fight hatton in england.

the question for you is why hasn't calzaghe ever left europe to fight the best 168-175 in the us. you had roy jones, b-hop, toney and many other highly ranked us champs but he just stayed in europe fighting limitied fighters like kessler

No? What the **** does this have to do with Mayweather not fighting outside of his country? You scared that the same might happen to Mayweather if he comes over to the UK? lol.

Like I said before PPV's generates money, not selling 50k cheap seats.

If PBF fought in Europe I'm pretty sure it will be less, I think PBF can sell good in UK but not the rest of Europe.

50K cheap seats at even $US50 on average, that's a lousy 2.5 Mil for the gate.

You're right it's ****! LOL

I'm pretty sure that yesterday's gate generated about 5-8 Mil (sponsors, etc)

[GunStar]

We're talking money again??

PPV's are transmitted and ca be viewed from anywhere...

But 60K seats??
Can you get that in Vegas

When we had no PPV's, we use sellout over 50k easily, PPV's generates more money, reason why we're not having fights in big stadiums anymore.

BTW did you know PBF/Delahoya generated more money with 15k tickets.

[Easy-E]

Many boxing greats fought globally and were recognized as WORLD CHAMPIONS. With Stadiums sold-out it appears to be that Europe is the bigger mecca for boxing right now.

Will Mayweather ever satisfy his international fans in a mega-fight outside of his home turf?

Why would he?
Totally pointless thread.

PPV's bring in the majority of the money.
By far.

[Azteca]

Wait, you are suggesting that boxing is now global and not just purely an american and hispanic sport, right?

No...it can't be.

You serious???

PBF/Delahoya did much more then 2.5 with 15k, when you can sell a thousand seats for 2k then why would you need to even bother with 50k stadium.
