The moment the fight is announced I'm booking my trip to Vegas...
I booked already, breh... The die hard boxing fans and multitude of casual fans scare my pockets knowing how the hotels will be ready to rape you. Not to mention it's already a convention that week making shyt sky high anyway... I say book now. Cosmopolitan rates are already:sadcam:

I think for the broadcasting part, it will be done the same way it was done for Lewis/Tyson: take one from each network, have them call the PPV version, then the winning network wins the rights to re-broadcast it with their own guys.

My personal picks would be: Jim Lampley/Paulie Malignaggi (PPV), Mauro/Bernstein/Tarver (Sho re-broadcast) and Bob Papa/Max/Roy (HBO re-broadcast). A case can be made for Lamps/Bern for the PPV instead of Lamps/Paulie, but I really like Paulie's skills as color guy/analyst, so I wouldn't mind the meeting of the minds of two different generations with him and Lamps.

Also, if (hopefully, WHEN) this gets done, it will be the first boxing PPV I would have ordered SINCE Floyd/Oscar, and that's saying something.
