Top 8 venues to box in the world and why?

[Britkid]

Madison Square Garden: The Grandaddy of them all!

Caesars Palace: The home of boxing in the 60s, 70s and 80s

Olympic Auditorium, Los Angeles: The riots sometimes were more spectacular than the fights, but the best Mexicans of the 60s, 70s and 80s performed there in a golden era. And even later on the likes of De La Hoya made sure the venue was on their resume

The Blue Horizon: The old meets the new, the last great American boxing club.

Arena Mexico: Boxing packed out this venue week after week for years and years.

Luna Park: Maybe more people have seen boxing here than any other venue.

York Hall: The home of British boxing. It gets no better than being able to watch boxing from the bar, the ring almost in front of you!

Royal Albert Hall: The classiest venue in boxing; there was no better sight than watching the Bomber in front of that huge organ (When I could get a good enough seat).

The Olympic was something. The atmosphere was intense; M-80s exploding, fights in the crowd. If the fight was good the crowd three coins into the ring, sometimes hundreds of dollars. To show displeasure they threw cups of urine. When an ex fighter would bring his blond bombshell girl, security would escort her to the restroom. When my mom would walk us to the bus stop across the street, there would always be 3 or 4 half drunk Mexican men that would go and wait with us.

I don't know which English venue is the best because I have never been there and the fans are electric and knowledgeable. Since I have been to matches in the US only I pick Madison Square Garden and second the Barclay Center is because of the greatest public transportation system in North America, I got when I lived in New York to leave the car home. Parking was terrible and expensive and I want that extra beer or two not to waste it on the fact someone could dent my car and run. The traffic jams on a work day makes one homicidal so score one for the buses and trains. Pass the brew please?
