Bob Arums views on the 40,000 seater who is with him?

[shza]

yes fair enough - but why does it have to be May 5th ? There's three other Saturdays in May

And there's also already a permanent 40,000-seat stadium in Las Vegas. Again, this is complete BS from Arum.

I kinda feel sorry for pac, arum is making him look like a straight punk. And i don't think it has anything to do with pac. I belive manny would fight floyd, rodger, and maybe even marquez again in the same night if the fans wanted. But all these excuses and silly statements that my nine year old son even calls bullshit (and he aint even allowed to cuss) are getting out of hand. A stadium ? Then what a gold ring, a diamond ring bell, ring ropes of dutch eagle feathers ? Sure doesn't look good. I wouldn't be surprised if arum is the one that snitched floyd out and got him locked up in the first place.

I doubt the difference would be that much, the figures he gave meant that the average seat would be 2000 if he wanted to make 40 more minus construction fees. Also M could likely put up the money to make up most of the difference. I can't see this fight being anywhere but MGM, and a closed arena has way better atmosphere.

The stadium is total bullshit, did it bring more dollars for Marg vs Pac or Clottey vs Pac at the million seat Dallas stadium.? ( don't know the actual seating capacity)

This has dragged on way to long and I don't think it will be bigger then Mayweather vs DelaHoya, ringside seats and pay per view may cost more but they will never beat the pay per view numbers sold.

I've never bought a pay per view anyways and this fight will be no different, add to that the millions around the world who do the same in the internet days of free streams. It has been five years already since the highest grossing fight and more ways to watch without paying the large fee's.
