    Because Vegas is the "Mecca of Boxing."

    Muhammad Ali a real ATG fought everywhere and all over the states.



    Most of you Mugweather fans are noobs who started watching boxing after the DLH fight.

    Every fighter chooses the location to fight at for financial reasons.

    Jim Jeffries, I have to say your a borderline Floyd fanatic. Getting ****ed over such a trivial matter is a little alarming. Do you read "The Catcher in the Rye" by any chance?

    No, not every fighter. Promoters of fighters. But Mayweather runs boxing of course so he will always dictate the rules.



    Atleast Pac mixes it up a little.


    The best thing for boxing is when Mugweather retires for good.

    It's like when Mayweather says he would love to fight in England.


    ''I would love to fight Amir Khan in England'',....etc... Obviously would never happen.


    He was forced into a corner to make this fight finally with Pac through years of begging. It has to be on his terms and no 50/50 split. That's not very fair on him because he's the draw.

    Like fighting in Texas which had lax drug testing protocol after being accused of using PEDs and going to Macau to avoid oweing more taxes. Sure pal. This is a stupid thread. Your obsessed fan.

    I know that's true.



    Most of the Mugweather fans jumped on the bandwagon after the DLH fight.


    They talk about him beating SRL, Hearns, Duran,...etc... He has no chance against the majority of the ATGs but these noobs have no idea whatsoever.

    Yes, but he fought in different locations recently. What's your point?



    He didn't choose those locations Bob Arum did.

    Mugweather makes his choices.


    Would it have hurt Floyd's fans for him to fight just once outside Vegas in the last 10 years?


    Maybe at the MSG against Maidana 2 and let Maidana wear his punchers gloves?

    I believe someone already said it earlier. Vegas is the Mecca of boxing and Floyd is not only the top dawg in boxing but he's earned the right to fight where he wants especially when all opposition get their highest payday fighting him. It's a very common sense matter of fact type deal.

    Floyd Mugweather doesn't care about his fans but they have a lot of faith in him.



    I'm not saying he should stop fighting in Vegas but he could still make bank fighting against a top opponent say at Wembley Stadium.


    A fresh change instead of just fighting in Vegas all the time in the place he lives and works.


    Would it really affect him much if he fought at Wembley Stadium next against Amir Khan?

    Because unlike Ward, who has no right to dictate terms because he can't draw flies to poo (and that's the reason big fights don't happen anymore for him), Mayweather is the cash cow in boxing.
