I agree that the prices are a bit too pricey at the Garden. I have seen Cotto three years in a row to see Cotto (Abdullaev, Malignaggi, and Judah) and the tickets were not as expensive as this upcoming fight. I know Mosley is a better opponent, but for that price I'd rather watch the fight with the fellas at home. I have never been to Foxwoods, but I have been to Mohegan Sun twice and any seat there is a good seat, no matter the price. I assume the same goes for Foxwoods. And the prices are more reasonable.

Ya they definitely raised the prices for this fight. I paid the exact same $$ for my tickets to the Judah fight as I am for the Mosley fight, but I was sitting 10 rows from the ring at the Judah fight, and I'm in the third deck for the Mosley fight.

Exactly! That's why I am sitting front row on my couch and paying the 49.99 or whatever it is on pay perview (not that I am cheap or anything). ;)

If it was not in December I would more then likely go but like I said Christmas is coming and the extra $$ can be spent on the kids, My neighbors and I usually split PPv's three ways so comes to about $20 each give or take, I have some family and friends up un Conn near Foxwoods we only see a few times a year so I will be killing two birds with one stone, The ladies will sit and have their coffee talk while the fellows go to the fights.
Like the Mohegan Sun most seats at Foxwoods are good seats so nothing to complain about. I miss the old days when there were local fights all the time, I am one of those guys who really does not care who is on the card I just like the atmosphere

What I would give to go to Mosley/Cotto or Hatton/Mayweather. Me and my Mrs have split recently and im having to buy her out (her share of our house) which is costing me an arm and a leg. I will be lucky to be able to afford the PPV at the moment. :'( :'(
Anyone that goes make sure you post loads of pics!!
Re: So, who here is going to see one of the big fights in-person?
going to the calzaghe-kessler fight, can't wait..
Was at the rpesser today, was a cracker, fair play to both fighters, both very respectful and pro's - kessler seems to be a tidy bloke.
Can't wait for the weigh-in 2morrow.
