      Kinda sucks, not for the parties involved I guess, I'm sure it's a good deal for them, but I wish we'd get some big fights in parts of the country other than Vegas, LA and NYC. Hope Hearn and Arum continue pushing into unused US markets

            Yeah I've always wondered that also. Broner and Tank are always visiting here as well with Broner making club appearances. My friends aren't huge boxing fans, but I know at least a few of them would go to a Broner and Tank card.

              Staples Center/Schaefer will probably end up being "PBC West" lol
              Stub Hub would be better. Smaller place, but more memorable fights for some reason.

                  I'm not surprised at all by this news the majority of the bigger fights are held there anyways. That's good news for New York!!

                    Better than having fights in Vegas. American boxing should be centered in New York, just like it was in the golden era.
