American arenas and big fights ...

[mojack]

Are you ******?I have been to over seven fights and each one spanned across the USA.Do you know how hot it is in Vegas during the summer time.You woudn't know because you rarley ever see the sun.I guess you wouldnt know about the rising gass prices and economical disadvantages we are having.It is a long way to vegas where i live in Cali you ignorant fool.

They're called planes. We travel to the states to watch fighters what makes you any different?

And gas prices? don't give me that ****, you've got the cheapest gas prices in the world, try paying $2.70 a litre like we do then we can talk about ****** gas prices.

The population of Vegas is over 500,000 and they could not fill 14,000 seats? Just proves that while the Americans are great at boxing, the general public no longer loves the sport as much as they used to.

That is why Arum uped the purse of both fighters because the PPV did so well in the US. The Uk people always try to make an argument over eveything.Are you people really this insecure?

Explain why you think the fight would have done better in the UK.

Probably because were a small island and quite alien to huge events like this, If this fight was promoted right and it was really put across to the public how its such a worldwide event and one of the biggest fights in boxing, It would be HUGE and could sell out a big arena.

Which i thought was the case in the US ... But after seeing all those empty seats i wondered why it didn't and made this thread ... Stop getting all touchy and sensitive.

No ,why dont you explain why such a huge fight was help at such a small venu ??????

This fight should have been a sellout, It would have had a bigger crowd in LA or NY but Arum likes getting that Site fee from the Vegas Casinos.

We have riots in the streets before and after the fight fueled by alcohol.

In the USA the income is very different compared to Europe,Our middle class gets payed less compared to Britain and the value of our dollar is **** right now.You don't know anything so just be quiet.The airlines also upped their prices because of the rising gas prices.

Insecure about what? I'm just highlighting the fact that boxing in America is not as revered as it once was.
