    I love how people are hyping up an arena...it's not the Roman Coliseum and even that was sustained because of the fights. Without the fighters, the arenas are crap.

    Floyd could fight Cotto in the streets of NY city and people will crowd around.

    People go where the fighters are fighting. But the fighters will make the choice as "Pro" athletes to go where the most money can be made which goes with where fans may want to travel most...which is VEGAS.

The only reason Floyd is an attraction in Vegas is because of the same reason that you can put a bunch of turtles to fight in vegas and people will still come to watch.
          That would be cool, give 'em boxing gloves and hotdamn!

            MSG is like Madonna: once upon a time many people wanted to get inside her, had people's attention, but became an over-priced old whore. Like Madonna, she can still put on a good show and sell-out, but there are other people to see, better places to go, and certainly better places to get inside.

                  I can understand Manny Pacquiao not boxing there because he is from the Philipines and you don't see a lot of Philipines in NY but Mayweather is American and he claims to be the biggest "Draw" in boxing. So why the 0 fights in NY? Is easy to sell fights in las vegas because of the betting but in NY you better be a big time fighter and give the fans their money's worth....Floyd can't do that.

                  So stop calling Floyd great until he proves himself in the the Meca of boxing and starts fighting the best.

                    If they were just friends, and he was sitting in the stands; nothing wrong with that. But if he was playing ball and swinging for the fences...eh...I don't get it. But then again, who am I to judge someone's taste. Some people like different things in life and if someone wants to have "relations" with what's left of her...then who am I to judge. Maybe it is an emotional/intelligence/talent thing
                    She still makes good music though but I haven't found her attractive in a long time.


                    Last time I thought she was HOT
