Re: Manny-Floyd at mgm las vegas
This fight was never going to be anywhere but Vegas. All this talk of the Cowboys Stadium or any other American Football stadium was the classic smoke-screen. Ray Hatton pulled this card a few times. Once promoters start stating they are considering other venues other than Vegas, the casino's massively up the ante $$$ wise. It wouldnt suprise me if the original offer wasnt upped by at least another $10 Million.
It's good though, Vegas is the boxing capital of world, whether MSG likes it or not, and this is where a fight of this magnitude needs to be held in my opinion. The only downside is the amount of 'comps' handed out to the high-rollers, leaving many true boxing fans without the chance to secure a seat. But, it's the nature of the beast I guess.
Some people say boxing is a matter of life or death, it's not, it's far more important than that.
