    20 wins without random drug testing is the same in the records as 20 wins WITH Random drug testing.

    Jerry Jones will force the Texas Athletic Commission to do a 180. I think Floyd cleaning up the sport will at least change Texas to do something. He will effectively kill the sport though and make it go bankrupt in doing so.

    Vegas is the home of mega-fights, and that's where it should be. Cowboys Stadium is great in terms of capacity, but it wouldn't quite have the same feel.

    Texas doesn't deserve the biggest fight we'll have for awhile due to their bad history of their stupid decisions. Whitaker vs Chavez anyone?

    Sorry, but there's no way in hell that Vegas is going to let some other place get this fight.

    you're smoking crack. 100,000 fans in front of an 80 yard high def screen or 18,000 seats in nose bleeds where you can't see the fight.

    how would you know, you've never been to either venue?

    ok that is a recent phenomenon and one can make the argument that as the percentage of fights in vegas increased over the last 35 years the national relevance of the sport decreased in the us.

    imo this fight needs to take place in a stadium not an arena. yankee stadium, the rose bowl, dallas stadium would and the deafening roar of 60k plus fans would give the event the sort of wattage that would bring in the dollars necessary to bring the fight off while also leaving room for the common man.
