okay so i thought Bob Arum had made it very apparent that they didn't want to host this bout at the MGM due to lack of seats. They considered the New Orleans superdome, new Dallas stadium, Thomas Mack Center, and even an outdoor constructed arena. I'm sort of disappointed that they decided on the MGM because even though its the Mecca of boxing and Las Vegas has so much activity involved with the fight, I think that for a fight of such epic proportions that it should of been held at a stadium of epic magnitude. Despite the fact that there is heavily paid taxes to host it at New Orleans or Texas, imagine the electricity from holding it at such a venue. Now thats what you call epic. That brings history back to the Tunney/Dempsey fight.
