DALLAS vs. VEGAS

So it has come down to Vegas or Dallas for the Manny Pacquiao - Floyd Mayweather showdown on March 13th. I am here to tell you that for the good of boxing this fight needs to be in Dallas. I completely understand that Texas has been known to have some bad decisions in the sport, but Vegas has had bad decisions too. What state hasn't?

As much as I loved watching the Miguel Cotto - Manny Pacquiao fight it wasn't as electric as a Ricky Hatton fight when he fought at the M.E.N Arena, or Lucian Bute when he fights in Montreal, and they don't even have to be taking on stellar competition. That because they have a decent following and have their fights in venues that actual fight fans can get tickets for. If you are putting on the biggest fight in the sport in years rational thought would be that you would want to put it in the biggest venue, right?

What does a boxing fan have to do to get in on a big time fight? Why do hardcore fans, the ones that pay the money and support the sport for years get punished when a big event comes around? True boxing fans deserve the chance to see this fight, and if it happens in Vegas you can forget about it. Cowboy Stadium is the only hope for Pac-maniacs and Floydians to see this fight in person.
