Mayweather-Pacquiao: Venues Battle For Hosting Rights

[zeidrich]

this is stup1d.

we all know that all the big fights are now hosted in Vegas.

No way it goes somewhere else not even for this fight.

Vegas has all the ballers dropping cash.

why? its more awesome to see a venue that has 100k fans rather than vegas than got 16k

This fight has to be made, this just literally shows how big this fight really is!

Dallas....

70,000?!

Would that many people attend? O.o

pac - may is the biggest thing boxing can give.. maybe 70k is possible... bring ricky hatton as an undercard for an instant 25k sold tickets

i prefer Vegas, I need to be able to place my bet right up until the fight. Also if they make the tickets too expensive I can go watch on the close circuit, plus the bars, clubs and b!tches! It's gotta be Vegas!

I'm going no matter where it is. I'd like for it to be in Vegas, because I've never been to Vegas, and I really want to go. Might as well catch the biggest fight of my lifetime while I'm at it. But if it were basically ANYWHERE else, other than California, it would make for a closer trip for me.

No please dont, I dont want the national anthems booed and having to hear a bunch of drunk brits singing "theres only one Ricky Hatton" during the Mayweather/Pacman event

if they did, about 7 of them would be mayweather fans, 1 would be his father.
