    I know.....I was just making a point. Floyd perfers to fight in LV. It's his home..it's where he lives. So he's always going to choose to fight there if he can......and now more than ever he can b/c he's calling the shots. 95% wasn't a "TRUE" figure......"98.9% of statistics on message boards are made up.:D

    Not a true figure... please. You thought he fought in Vegas his whole career.

    Not even half of his fights have been in Vegas.

    I haven't the 49 states in an article. I've only seen people say it.

    Got a source? I can't even google it. It's all forums I get.

    It is called Tax Avoidance. Tax Rates:

    NJ - 8.97%
    NY (city) - 6.85% + $2047 + 3.648%

    -----

    NV - 0%
    TX - 0%

    Any fighter making mega bucks fighting anywhere else is a fool.

    :lol: Serious? Nah homie.....I've been around the sport a long time. I know Floyd hasn't faught most of his career in LV. B/c he hasn't lived in LV for the majority of his life or career for that matter. Moveing up in the ranks Floyd was fighting everywhere or anywhere he could get fights...and when you are a up and comming fighter you are fighting more consistantly and regularly which means you are NOT gonna be fighting where you want...it's where your promoters can get you a fight.

    I know not even half of his fights have been in Vegas brah.

    Why do people get excited when they find a blog post or vlog by some jackass that doesn't have any credentials about something said jackass doesn't know squat about or chooses to leave out crucial information?

    Man if you find it on the Internet it has to be true. Especially if it is bashing Mayweather!
