MGM Hints Ties With Arum May Be Over

[John Barron]

people keep mentioning other casinos owned by MGM. if bob keeps this up, pacquiao's next fight will be held at a YMCA center just outside of vegas.

This hurts the mgm. Not arum. Arum will just gladly take his business to the Wynn or Mandalay Bay.

The Wynn doesn't have a fight arena and The Mandalay Bay is owned by MGM

its about time people gonna realize gbp been juicing fans
with their danny vs herrera roberry and plus this floyd vs maidana
it going downhill
mgm choosed the wrong side

[Check_hooks]

Who cares about the MGM anyways? The future of boxing is Macau and Bob Arum already laid the groundwork there

If he wants to have a fight in USA than fight at Cowboys stadium. He had Jerry Jones direct phone number

[DeadLikeMe]

Contrary to popular belief on NSB, Bob Arum can't just make stadiums appear. The Thomas & Mack can hold like 20k for boxing but the place is 30 years old. People are going to be less willing to pay exorbitant prices there than at the MGM. There is luxury branding associated with the MGM that a college basketball arena simply lacks.

Bob will head to the Bellagio, Venetian, Luxor, Wynn, Mandalay Bay or the Four Seasons

Half of those are owned by MGM and the others don't have a boxing arena.

Top Rank will be around longer than Mayweather.

his ship seems be dying fast they were gbp equal but not so much now and its only getting worse

[Cinci Champ]

Top Rank used the Thomas and Mack a lot with DLH in the 90's...MAGO, Whitaker, Camacho, Chavez II, Quartey.

Lewis-Holyfield II was there.

Calzaghe-Hopkins was one of the more recent big fights there.

It's not the best venue, because it's not on the strip, takes a lot more effort to go there (especially for the rollers staying at the MGM) and it's older...but still, it's been used plenty for boxing.

ya bob will figure it out im sure but fact is no where generates money for fights like the mgm

He sure did. Those 350k flopping PPV buys

Phuck it, go to the Lexor or the New York, New York one. The Luxor is a beast, killer hotel.
