Floyd would be near-death before ring entrance with a bladed weapon stuck on his nape if he fights in Manila.

It wont work if held in the philippines.

1. PPV- the fight has to be held in the morning, philippines time, to be shown in the US, early evening.

2. Mayweather will never agree to the fight to be held outside the US, heck, even outside of Las Vegas.

3. Whoever wins, there will be a riot if it is held in the Philippines.

4. There are much better sports facilities in the U.S., far better than the Araneta Coliseum.

5. It can never equate to a Las Vegas venue, in terms of financials/cash flow that Las Vegas provides. Not even close.
