Just want to clear something up on why Vegas takes 1st place for fight cards

[DaxxKahn]

yes great post Daxx.. I completely understand why most of the big fights are in Vegas..

Although I like the idea of fighters and promoters occasionally giving up a little bit of $ or whatever to hold fights in different places like the UK.. Especially when they have the opportunity to fight in Vegas but choose not to.
It puts back into more of the boxing community who don't get a chance to go to Vegas.. And infact, maybe more fights should be spread around a bit, but I don't begrudge anyone involved in the game to choose the option that is easiest for them, offers the most benefits to the fighters, and makes them the most money... Hopefully some of that money goes back into boxing in some positive form or another though

It would be nice for sure...The thread was more or less for those who insist that the fights are in Vegas due to favortisim or because one fighter will only fight there..

I wish they would spread out more myself...Even local boxing with up and comers has died out...I used to be able to catch 2 shows a month...Granted the guys on the card were ones you would not know but to me boxing is boxing and it is good just to go to the fights...The atmosphere is great...

Constant big fights in Vegas has been criticised for "harming" boxing.

Because TRUE fans don't get to follow their fighter and at the same time Vegas doesn't bring in any NEW fans (who would follow a fighter form their area).

Think it was Arum or King or both who were starting to promote more matches away from there.
