    While Dallas has a huge stadium, what are you going to do in Dallas?

    While Vegas has a great town, there's no way it seats more than 16,000 unless they build that outdoor venue. And even then, it's still just 30,000.

    New Orleans has a huge stadium and a great town.

    Los Angeles and New York and especially Las Vegas always get the fights. About time Dallas gets it.

    My thoughts exactly

    I think there would be a decent amount of International fight fans that would fly in to see the fight. New Orleans would be a great city to visit. Friendly people and a unique slice of American culture

    Not to mention the partygoing would be ****ing insane ;)

    Azteca Stadium in Mexico. It will be a neutral fight venue that can accomodate 120,000 people. Or Rose Bowl in CA.

    Azteca Stadium is a bit run down and not very modern. And Mexico city is polluted as hell, and Mexico is in the middle of a very contentious drug war. I will say the crowd will be awesome, but the tickets would have to be priced a bit cheaper. And Im sure kidnappers would have a ****ing field day. :patsch


    And the rose bowl is a shitty choice. A nice venue, but again, the stadium is need of a retrofit, and having lived in LA, the Rose Bowl is actually in a rather boring area that is far from LA's major attractions. Pasadena isnt much of a city.

    Either Las Vegas or Dallas, since I could drive to both.

    Preferably Dallas though, since all the extra seats would hopefully lessen the price of tickets.

    I won't be hanging around much before or after the fight, so I don't really care if there's nothing to do in Dallas.

    Let's have the fight in Manila, it's about time Mayweather fights outside of the USA, he's been enjoying that homecooking his entire career.
