Dallas Cowboys’ Owner Wants to Host Pacquiao-Mayweather

By Danny Rolodex

With heavy buzz roaming on the promising encounter between pound-for-pound king Manny Pacquiao and the deluded king of trash talk Floyd Mayweather, Jr., possible venues for the fight have surfaced.  The world’s entertainment capital Las Vegas is the number one pick for most boxing honchos and fans alike.  From hotel casinos to close-circuit betting, Las Vegas is where the money is. 

But another city wants to join the pageantry.  With its $1.2 billion massive structure, the City of Dallas and its billion-dollar man Jerry Jones wants to host the Pacquiao-Mayweather at the brand new Cowboys stadium.  This huge stronghold can fill up to 100,000 fight fans swathed over a 20 x 20 platform.

The Cowboys Stadium is situated in Arlington, Texas, and built to replace the Texas Stadium as home of the Dallas Cowboys.  Deemed as the world’s largest domed stadium, this enormous arena was completed in May 2009, and can seat at least 80,000.  However, it can be filled up to the brim at a seating capacity of about 111,000 using its standing areas.

Aside from football, this sporting facility can also be used for various activities including, but not limited to, concerts, religious get-togethers, soccer matches and basketball games.  Motocross races and rodeos are also held at the stadium.
