    I know, but it seems he would sell really good there, especially in a fight so big.

    Actually, not many Filipinos follow Pac around (or at least not from the Philippines), like Brits do Hatton. Usually they already live there! The huge Filipino turnout in the UK during the Hatton-Pac promotions was moslty due to the huge amount of Filipinos living in the UK. We're everywhere.. lol

    Correct. There would be a lot of Filipino's from the U.K., not from outside the country. We American fans don't travel too much obviously either but as I said, seems Floyd is pretty popular there and doing a good job of promoting himself for his current fight.

    MGM Grand can only hold 15,000 were as Wembley can hold 100,000! Plus all the Beer being sold in the UK sells WAY better than if it was just US fighters. Screw the fees Wembley is were it's at! or as Floyd said 'London is were it's at!'

    Well, I would much rather see, although I must admit it's unrealistic, a double header at Dodger Stadium, over 65 000 people for :

    MAIN FIGHT = Pacquiao-Mayweather
    UNDERCARD = Mosley-Cotto (rematch)

    Winners eventually fight each other....

    Void refused to fight Pac. Void does not want that fight.
