      True...but don't know how big their stadium is or the laws on ppv and HBO doing business there might be different. I could be wrong but it would make sense

        I agree, he should. He was born there, lives there, and is a politician there. He is loved by the people yet he hasn't fought there since his stardom. I don't want to sound ignorant but can it be that a gate there wouldn't generate as much money as in America?

            there's a much bigger pressure when you're fighting in front of your countrymen, Pacman would be better off on PPV in Las Vegas.

                  Because their home countries are poor and nobody can afford tickets to generate money
