Zou Shiming Makes 300k for his debut fight. Arum calls Singapore "Vegas on Steroids"

Singapore has ridiculously strict rules but they can do it obviously since its their country.
I heard is also very expensive in there.

 

It is a crazy place but at least it is very safety and clean.

 

Zou has impressive footwork.

 

300k for a pro debut at like 100lb against nobody??? That's insane.

 

He isn't...he is pretty mediocre.

 

dont matter as long as a billion freaking chinese are behind him.....

in fact he could be lousy, but as long as he's got mega fanship that brings in revenue, thats all that matters. Mebbe down the long road he'll get sexposed and they'll say he was already past prime...

as long as it brings in more fans in the sport, its all good

 

Just watched his gold medal fight....holy **** he needs to stop using turning his back as his main defense. And falling over.

I don't see this going very far unless he makes serious adjustments.

 

I think of Singapore as a sort of boring Hong Kong

 

age? yeah i understand but you dont check for gender?

are you into chicks w/ dcks?

 

And the actual article states, "Macao is Las Vegas on steroids."

Great reading comprehension there, bud.


And I have serious cause to think the article's mention of Singapore as a possible destination is actually a mistake, and really, they mean Macau. It makes absolutely no sense for it to be in Singapore and not Macau. It is really like Las Vegas for fun and games - pre and post fight - and that makes it an attractive destination. It's not a mistake the UFC went there and not a mistake that Shiming debut is also there. Singagore has **** all for punters, with all due respect. Filipinos would head to Macau is a heartbeat as it's so close. Singapore, not so much.

 

He said Macao is Vegas on steroids, not Singapore. I went to Macau a few years ago. The gambling there is pretty crazy. I heard more money is spent gambling there than in Vegas.

 

If not USA, it's ****, period.

 

Both bang on.

You going to the Macau card?
