    Exactly. The fight was in Vegas because of GBP.

    Remember, it was GBP who thought it would be such a great idea
    to have Wlad-Haye in Vegas. Neither fighter is from Vegas, and they couldn't
    have drawn anywhere near the crowd that they did in Germany. :lol:

    The fight was promoted preety good, its just that Judah has lost most of his biggest fights and Jhan is from England. 7K PPL was good and the undercard was preety good. I got there at 4, so I saw Heavy weights,Kirkland and Gary Russell Jr!!

    7,000 is actually a great number for a Vegas venue title fight. The average us about 4,000.

    Floyd wouldn't be expecting that many people from america to travel to see him fight, he knows he has a lot of support in the UK who would happily pay to see him fight. The US fans can just buy PPV.

    Khan Vs Mayweather at wembley stadium would sell 40 thousand plus as well as doing massive PPV numbers.

    You are probably right and let's hope it does happen.

    I do feel that Khan is a big named fighter, but I just don't think hes on Rickys, PBF or Manny's level just yet. I think one HUGE name fight and he'll be on their level in no time. He needs that one right oppoenet to get to that level.

    The FANS lose out. The ones who pay to see live boxing. You get to see 2 mediocre fights and its not even LIVE.

    what a F*CKIN' JOKE. This could seriously backfire if nobody shows up for Mayweather/Ortiz like JMM/Mayweather and people go to Alverez/Gomez.

    if you're a paying fan to watch Mayweather/Ortiz..you're getting screwed out of seeing Canelo live.:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

    Wembley would be packed with brits and at least one Finn.

    Fights started at 3pm with the Main Event at 7pm ( ish ) ! I was at the fight and have to admit the Stadium looked really empty up till about 10 mins before Main Event but then it did fill up quite a bit ! When I was leaving the fight I bumped into quite a few brits who thought the Main event was going to be at 2030 ( so they missed the fight :patsch ) Stadium was all for Khan ( Judah had hardly any fans in it )
