    How many highrollers do you think will go to a porta-potty? Seriously think about it! I have seen some quotes where PBF live gate at the MGM was higher than Pacs at Cowboys stadium (which is a helluva lot bigger)

    Ok thats a legit answer. Thanks for not being a ******.

    Floyd probably shoulda checked with TR if he wanted to fight pac on that day & place though.

    What makes you think that a custom built arena for this event wouldn't account for the high end amenties of the upper class?

    Trump did several his Dubai presentations at outdoor temporary locations, the amenities were unbelievable.

    Screw Mayweather. Manny calls the shots here people. Mayweather ain't got any guarentees on anything except his jail date. Now he's panicking and crying everywhere. Floyd is the dumbass that ran from Manny for 2 yrs, so screw him. He does it Manny's way or he can go straight to the jail cell. Hope he roughts away and stops wasting our time. This is Manny's time Floyd so get out of his life and let Manny continue to conquer the world while your dumbass stays in a jail cell where you belong. Manny can sing, dance, act, run a country, help the poor and stay out of jail, so floyd, shut your dumbass mouth and stop having your management twitter all these dumb attacks on Manny since you yourself don't how how to do anything else other than box, So, shut up, stop looking like an ignorant dumbass and go to jail forever. Ha ha ha ha haa!! Manny rules!!

    The venue was already booked. This issue about the stadium didnt come about until floyd jail sentence was pushed back

    let me explain somethin about that date, everyone knows May 5th is the biggest date in boxing. Arum is butthurt cuz floyd snagged it first and he wouldnt dare to try to compete with him on the same date. Floyd wants pacquiao to fight him on that date but arum is desperately trying to move it by making these excuses. but the thing is, if team pacquiao ducks floyd, he still has that date to fight someone else. arum wants an in-house top rank fight with his mexican fighters on that date but floyd is ahead of the game.

    if i were floyd i wouldnt fall for this later in may bull****. what if the stadium isnt built in time? on top of that, that means floyd was lying to the court about a may 5th bout and has to ask for EXTRA time to recover from injuries when theyre already postponing his original sentence. u cant just play with the law like that. floyds been screaming about May 5th for months now. why the hell is there a problem all of a sudden. this is a duck move by arum, plain and simple.

    I asked elsewhere if theres a way in which Floyd could keep May 5th locked at MGM with first dibs in case he moved off the date in attempt to make the fight so Arum couldnt pull the ol switcheroo and snag it after Floyd moves off.

    Maybe Floyd thought over half a year was enough time for them to figure out what they wanted to do.

    A better question is - Why does it always have to be about maximum revenue? Why can't it be about getting two guys in the ring to fight? Neither party is starving. They will make enough money. For once we're seeing Mayweather not overly concerned about money. We shouldn't question it. Otherwise it'd be like asking an overweight kid why he's not eating cake in his room when he's planning to participate in an outdoor activity.

    Even if it were to cost 10 million it would be worth it. Boxing promotion has always been Grandiose. This fight would demand it. Heck every regular title fight is held at MGM, boring as hell. This fight deserves more.

    MGM is boring and run of the mill. A fight of this magnitude deserves more.
