    I don't need to read this nonsense to see that it is just another line of BS form that liar Arum. I guess you think LV only has towns small enough to bike across like that ant hill you live on huh?

    Where is it located moron? On the strip? Walking/quick cab distance from dinner, shopping, and entertainment? You see idiot, if you had any grown man experience you would realize things like this.

    A fight is an event. Stadiums suck because they are economic "deserts". Venues surrounded by a sea of parking spaces. That means no money for the local bars, restaurants, hotels, etc... A fight on the strip can command higher ticket prices AND generate tons of secondary revenue.

    Arum knows this. That is why he said it.

    I don't care where the fight is, just as long as they fight ! At this point, from a fans prespective it matters nought. Arum is just trying to drum up more duckets for his on pockets.

    Then we have an issue again. Fact is, Mayweather seems to be begging for ANY issue to ruin this from happening by bringing up stuff, now that Arum is feeding him something expect it to fall off and for good.

    You would like to have it there so you can go to Walmart for the after party and pick your 94 astrovan up from Discount Tire. :lol:

    Or, you could say look at the *******s who once again take every word as gospel from Arum. Why not MGM which has always been a favorite of boxing fans. It's not just about size of the stadium, it's about giving fans entertainment before and after the fight.

    I know you don't. You are broke and consider corndogs good food. You don't understand why the MGM is the place for this fight.

    Dallas Stadium. Neutral Venue.

    More fans, and Pimp C might actually show up.

    What the hell are you talking about? Fact, including tonight, 5 of Pac's last 7 fights have been at The MGM Grand. Fact, Pacquiao said yesterday that he would love to fight on May 5th. I can only assume that Arum is trying to up the offer from whoever hosts this fight.
