    i hope if its in vegas, they hold it in a soccer stadium and do it up with screens or something to bring it up to world class, **** you could build a stadium just for this ight as they do for the olympics and still come out with change. a once in a generation fight deserves a once in a generation venue. im sick of the mgm grand, its like the mcdonals of stadiums, weve all been and seen it., and its cheap and used. and not very special at all.

    Cheers DLSC and Atlanta. I live in the uk and was in Vegas in Sept 08 and for the hatton/pac fight in May. I'd prefer this to be in September early October tbh...guaranteed some sun in that way.

    Yeah, there is no way that they'll get close to that unless they have it in the Azteca in Mexico City lol.

    This is a massive event and could draw 100 000 imo in the right place why do all top boxing matches have to in Vegas catering to the same people at the same artificially high prices that allow little opportunity for the sport to reach a wider audience and for greater fan participation. No other sport would hold all their biggest events in the same place by doing this boxing is marginalising itself. Dallas Cowboys Stadium would be good
