    What do you think?

    Can it sell?

    can this erase all doubt about the purses at that big of a venue?

    I`ll be down there like a shot, Im only 7 hrs drive north, that would be great.

    It would sell like a mofo, the whole stadium would be spilling over.

    I think if that fight is made that Wembley Stadium should be the venue ...

    Hey Ezekiel nice to see you back to your old ways

    anyways they make more money fighting in a casino than a stadium.

    you dont have to be a promoter to know, why didn't pbf-dlh happen at staples centre or home depot centre? it would have easily sold out

    why didn't hatton vs malignaggi or cotto vs margarito happen in madison square garden like they were planned?

    because the casinos pay a huge fee to host the big events, a ticket at a casino is much higher in price than a ticket for a stadium.

    Ezekiel Wigger McFitzgerald you still have not learned:-(

    This fight will happen ... I think not only will this be good for boxing but a plus for HBO and GBP.

    DLH made 8m against Forbes at soccer stadium?

    If you're going to put it in a stadium that size, it would make loads more sense to have the event at the Rose Bowl.

    Casino's are far bigger venues as a whole, and there's tons of people who pay and go and watch it on a big screen.

    I'm not even from England but I say they should fight there and fill up the stadium! Floyd wants to fight there and this would be a great fight to do it! Pacquiao also said he was surprised how many Filipino fans showed up to see him there for the Pac/Hatton press tour so why not?
