    Richard Schaefer was notified last night that Mayweather doesnt want the fight in Dallas Stadium because its an outdoor stadium.. Kind of strange being that it has a retractable roof.

    Floyd lives in Vegas, of course he wouldn't want the fight anywhere else, he's just coming up with reasons to reject it.

    I think the real reason is because Floyd knows in Texas people get robbed in decisions!:hey

    Floyd lives in Vegas. Trains in Vegas. Of course he'd rather have the fight in Vegas. But at this point whatever makes the most $ makes the most sense.

    I also think Floyd wants it in Vegas because he lives there. His daily routine already involves training and being in Vegas, I dont blame him, but that may change the dollars needed to pay these guys. That stadium held 80K plus.

    Hell with that AWFUL and CROOKED Texas Commission I would not fight there either. Their judges are criminals and so are the referee's.
