sad if the venure have to move

[Leohappy]

lol if they deny margarito that licence, it's gonna be the last top prank fight ever planned in ny/msg, you can count on it. arum already didn't like msg as a venue because of high running costs. really they chose it because of rican fans. if they move it somewhere else the whole concept is going to be ruined. i think it's going to push through though.

Arum can go to hell if its moved the fight has to happen in msg thats where it belongs

[kingfaze19]

this fight should not happen on US soil period .. that bum margarito should not even have a license , wheres the justice for putting bricks in your gloves, thats attempted murder anywhere..yet hes still makin money cuz Arum fought for his license yet got mad at Floyd for the way he 2 pieced Ortiz sayin it was bad for Boxing .. Arum has no soul

[PEBBLES!]

Denver,

[Southpawology]

so basically theyre gonna have 1.5 weeks to promote a PPV fight in a new venue, lol what a mess that could have easily been prevented

Hahaha!

NYSAC: "I know what Bob Arum wants... and he can go fcuk himself"

feel bad for the fans who bought tix ..but Fk Bob Arum.. love when sht like this happens to him.. boxing is gonna be so much better off when he is gone..

If it's moved to Denver it's gonna suck for Scumbag Arum cause he's gonna loose a lot of $$$$$$$$.. & if that happens, his GREEDY ass deserves it cause all this could have been avoided if Arum had done things right from the get go!!! & it's really gonna suck for Cotto cause the altitude(over 5,000ft above sea level) is gonna affect him in a negative way..Cotto has been training at sea level & in a high action & intense fight & then add the high altitude(which he hasn't adapted to) as fight goes on, if in the 1st fight he claims the problem was that he ran out of gas, then in this one he's really gonna be in a world of s h i t!!Ironically the ONLY one that could benefit from all this is Margarito cause he's already training at high altitude in Mexico, so he's already adapted to this atmosphere..So if he's denied a license in N.Y, it would actually work to his favor..I don't understand why Arum hasn't tried to move the fight to a place where neither fighter will have an advantage like Florida(Miami or Orlando) or to some other city in Texas like Houston or San Antonio..

Well it won't affect PPV, nobody is buying the fight just because it's in NY

Onlything affected will be tickets and gate
