    It's just a stadium.

    The hotels and casinos would have nothing to worry about because people will just go back to their venues when the fight is done.

    Do you people think people are going to hang out in the stadium after the fight is done? No. The will go back to whichever hotel they are staying to resume their drinking and ********.

      Pac signing an extension with Arum a couple years ago ended all hopes of Floyd-Pac being made. If the fight isn't gonna be made, Pac's gonna have to accept a flat fee from Floyd, and break Arum of a piece of that and tell him to stay the **** outta the way. And me thinks Arum's ego is way too big for him not to be apart of one of the biggest promotions in boxing history, that will be involving his top dawg. And for whatever reason, Pac is too loyal to Arum to tell him to check his ego at the door.

        People hang out before the fight IN The casino.

        It's why no one is in their seats until the main or co main event, theyre already busy ******** and have been for hours

            The New York Times and Wall Street Journal have both written articles detailing floyd's deal and that he is not a GBP fighter.

              Sorry but I respectfully disagree, Pacman would still be a live threat to Mayweather than Bradley would ever be, Mayweather is 3 times the boxer Bradley is and I meant that as no disrespect towards Bradley, everything that Bradley does best Mayweather does it 3 times better, Pac on the other hand can still match Mayweather in some areas and he is still a southpaw.

                  LOL at getting a limo, getting in and out of those spots took me until about 2:20 am after Mayweather/Cotto to get out of dodge and I wasn't even ********.

                  Youre overestimating how much a stadium would make badly
                  All I'm saying is the Stadium was a realistic proposal.

                  As for revenue, The entire tourism industry in Vegas would collectively share an economic boost as a result of the fight. Everybody wins.

                  And if you had trouble getting out of the MGM for Cotto vs Floyd, then you are obviously not a high roller.

                      Yes, but they want them to return to THEIR Casino. They don't want them to simply go to the nearest Casino to gamble, they want in with them. Not to mention, getting a limo in vegas during fight week is a *****. It would take for ever to get back to certain areas. Owners don't want their gamblers stuck in traffic!
                      What about this are you not getting exactly?
