    Mayweather Pacquiao negotiations stalled due to venue location?

    Negotiations for a megafight between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. appear to have stalled on Thursday. Both sides have agreed on purse split and drug testing protocol, with Manny agreeing to random USADA drug testing up to but not closer than seven (7) days of the fight. Representatives from Floyd Mayweather’s camp have insisted the bout take place in Las Vegas, while representatives from Pacquiao’s team want the fight to take place at Cowboy Stadium in Dallas. Negotiations are ongoing and an agreement should be finalized early next week
    should Floyd Mayweather agree and fight Manny Pacquiao at Cowboy Stadium in Texas?

        If true I hope they opt to keep the fight in Vegas, as much as everyone went bunkers for the new Cowboy stadium I still prefer the Vegas atmosphere.

            It'll be interesting to see if they cut down the # of blood tests.

              I bet GBP will fight to death that the fight be held in Vegas.

                Hell no. The biggest fight in the last 10 years has to take place in Vegas. Arum and Pac will eventually give in like they have in the negotiations. The fight will take place in Vegas.
