Could Britain ever become the 'home' of boxing?

boxers in britain fight like sportsman in a way. not in a cynical dog eat dog way that the u.s. construct.

 

Nope - too many factors go against us.

TV time - they would be sacrificing a lot to put the boxing on at 2/3PM in America otherwise they would have to have every fight on live at 3AM over here. Considering USA has something like 250k more potential viewers then thats something that can't be overcome.

Ad revenue - put it this way, big Us companies are willing to fork out way more money to advertise on US prme time than they would in UK and will again be more than any UK products.

Emulating Vegas - put it this way, Vegas strip alone is a sixth of the size of London, where not getting anything on that scale here.

Casino's make more money than the fight itself (discounting PPVs) so going of the last point were not giving a better offer for fights than the US casino's are.

 

I could see it switching to somewhere like Dubai/China/Brazil in the future though.
