    I simply have doubts that it will happen in Brisbane as other cities are richer (Sydney & Melbourne), more aggressive in pitching for events (Sydney, Melbourne & Adelaide) and/or have massive new stadiums looking for events (Adelaide & Perth)

    If in Brisbane, I'll probably go

    Elsewhere na

    I never imagined that I could watch a Pac fight live

    there are flights to Brisbane for $200-$300 return

    I would probably have change from 1500 bucks

    but, it's just not a big fight

    how the hell do I explain that to my wife, she aint dumb ?

        Welp... This doesn't excite me much but if Manny gets a big fight afterwards I am OK with It.

              If it's on regular HBO or Showtime then I'm fine with it. A chance to see an ATG like Manny on regular premium cable subscription, and against a consensus top 15 welter, okay cool.

              But if this **** is on PPV...it'll have like 12 buys. Total. Jeff Horn's mom & dad, his 2 brothers and like 8 random Filipinos.

                Location is up for bids, the Victorian Government have stepped forward and Brisbane Government is meeting with them next week.

                And apparently it might be in the USA or Saudia Arabia.

                Bottom line is it will be where the highest bid comes from.

                  Ha

                  Going to Ward - Kov cost me plenty as the trade-off was taking the whole family to Vegas

                  Brisbane is a nice town and a Pac fight is a bucket list thing

                  Melbourne would be better as my mate runs the government department that brings events to Victoria so tickets would be cheap.

                  Be nice and I might throw one your way

                    Australia has a real obsession with sporting events. Expect there to be some huge bids from the states to get this.

                    This is way more important than schools roads and hospitals.

                    Melbourne would be good cos i live here but then i have relatives in Brissy so going away would be fun too. Juts hope it's not in Sydney.

                      Not that hard to figure out when one fight will probably make $100 million and the other $30 million...

                      It's not a matter of worth, it's being paid fairly based on revenue and Pac-Crawford won't do half the sales of Canelo-GGG...
