seeing a live fight

[greynotsoold]

I was pretty far from the ring when I saw the 2nd Gonzalez/Carbajal fight and it was still great. That was at the Forum which sounds like it is much larger than the venue you will be going to, with a 17000 plus capacity.

go to it, will be well worth the money even if you end up with a cheap seat. I've only been to one fight maidana- alexander in the scott trade center, and it was awesome even from in the back for the main event. till just about the main event you can sneak to the front and watch the fights there, seemed like most people with frontline tickets didn't bother showing up till the main event, don't know if that's always the case but i would think so since it also always seems so on tv.

In the words of one Rocky Balboa....Go fa it!! I've only been to a few cards locally but I'm sure by 'cheap' you will not be hanging out in the rafters catching nose bleeds. Check into the layout and seating arrangments, angles and I'm sure there are a few guys on here who can offer some tips and how to maximize the experience etc. Nothing beats a live venue and the experience. I payed cheapy years back and they actually bumped us up front to 'fill' seats, live broadcast and all. Have fun with it but make sure your close enough to the camera with a huge sign

You can't beat a live fight. I make a point of trying to go to at least 1 a year now. Cheap seats are generally fine. I've only had one bad experience and that is at the O2 Arena for Haye-Maccarinelli and to be honest, they weren't that cheap. In the US cheap seats seem pretty good anywhere. I went to MSG in moderate seats and had a great view.

In short, go for it. That should be a great card and I'm jealous I can't be the one to see Macklin knocked out.
