    Just got back from vegas, and at the mgm

    There some huge picture signs that say "home of the champion" with a mayweather pic then mayweAther vs ortiz on the bottom. Is may the only boxer that gets love from vegas like that?

    Probably the only top athlete currently that brings in the high rollers with regular consistency.

      Pacs pretty big in Vegas. I know it was Mandalay but I was in Vegas the weekend before JMM/Pac 2 and they advertised it a lot there. I do think someone is pretty naive if they believe Pac brings in the same amount of revenue as Floyd. Floyd is making Vegas big money, his gates are huge.

        Maybe because Mayweather resides in Vegas?

          Money gambles a lot in Vegas.

            Well, that's not really fair. The Pacquiao fans can't afford tickets.

              The Mayweather fans probably robbed people, if they are like 50 Cent fans that is.

                ^^^^^^^

                But in fairness to Floyd fans, they throw big parties and stream Floyd's PPV fights.

                  Everyone is like that.

                  You have 50 mexicans infront of a 30" TV thats stealing their neighbors feed. All yelling and playing the huge ass guitars with their maracas doing the mexican yell anytime a punch lands

                  You have 75 Pinoys in a little room sitting on each others heads and legs trying to find a good position to watch it in. any time pacman hits someone they update their facebook or twitter and play with their phone all fight so they look cool

                  You have 30 *****'s all sitting around the only dude who knows how to work the internet and waits until he finds a crappy quality stream and they gather around the monitor saying "WAIT MAN WHICH ONE OUR BOY YO? YO ITS DAT TRIGGA IN THE RED, YEEAAA WOOP DAT ASS BOY"

                    lmao at home of the champion when he doesn't have a single championship and has ducked and dodged the top fighter in his weight class since Baldomir.

                    Champion of what? Being the son of a h0m0? Raviolli eating? Virtual dominos?
