    lol, you're one of the biggest supporters of "boxing is a business". I guess you don't like how business works.

      Sounds like smart business to me. Why let competitors profit off what you do.

          It's couldn't have been a regular weekend. Pool parties usually ends Labor Day weekend which is September.

          If you book a room at Encore or Wynn they comp you 2 tickets for Encore Beach. You just gotta bring it up with them when booking a room.

              Yeah, I'm expecting a "keys to the city" presentation for Floyd in Vegas soon. He's boosting the Vegas economy on a grand scale with this fight alone.

                  You can still catch the closed circuit at most MGM owned hotels. All this article is saying is that the rest of the non-MGM hotels on the Strip are blacked out.

                  Haven't seen any info on when the tickets will go on sale or how much. Maybe next week there will be news

                    If we dont get to see fight then why the hell am we going. I want to be part of event but not to see fight wont be worrh it.
                    Bellagio, Mandalay Bay, The Mirage, Luxor, Monte Carlo, Circus Circus, Excalibur, New York New York and Slots-A-Fun Casino, along with CityCenter, will all have the fight available.

                    Add up all of the rooms available, and the ones at the MGM Grand, and your talking about 50,000 rooms where a person can buy the fight from the comfort of their own space. You add the bars across the properties showing the fight, in addition to the closed circuit options that will be available across the properties, I'm pretty sure that there are more than enough ways to be a part of the event without having to be at Caesar's Palace.

                      You really think the best thing for a fight of this magnitude is a 25 year old business model, one based on a bleacher seat-based temporary outdoor stadiums where 'high rollers' and even regular fans are expected to pay premium dollars to pizz in a Port-Potty and have to go outside the stadium to get a t-shirt?
                      so you mean to say that Floyd fans were laughing at the proposed idea of Arum building a temporary stadium because of the porta cabin and a t-shirt?
