Everything was leaning towards the Staples Center (the Forum not Staples Center) but nothing was official. But I suspected it when Bob moved Loma from the Staples center on Dec 1st to MSG on Dec. 8th

Odd choice for this particular fight, but good venue non the less. Should attract a lot of celebrities as well.

Vegas didn't want it.

Not big enough venue.
MGM holds like 18,500, T-Mobile 20,000. Mandalay Bay lile 12,000.

Nice clickbait-y title, could have said where it's at in the title too bro. Sneaky sneaky

The other venues already had events scheduled. Mandalay Bay is second tier Vegas. It's south of Tropicana walking away from the major casinos.
