    Yes, it seems on TV you can here the commentators better, and the slowmo is good to watch on some of those nasty shots.

    I agree. My brother saw boxing live for the first time earlier in the month and he absolutely loved it. Said it was awesome. I agree, boxing is such an awesome sport live I love it.

    There is nothing more enjoyable in the line of sports then being ringside for a fight.
    I've been courtside to basketball games on the side lines of football & soccer games.

    But and I mean nothing beats sitting ringside for a World Class fight.
    Having sat ringside for JLC-Corrales I, Rafa vs. Izzy 1 & 3.
    I can tell you there is nothing like it.
    NOTHING.

    Good thing is that they didn't track me down and made me pay for the chair.

    I think it very much depends on how comfortable you feel in a large crowd and whether you enjoy the sense of atmosphere you get from a live event.

    I have to say I'm more inclined to Boxing Gorilla's way of thinking. Going to a live event all seems to much effort. Driving to the event, queuing to get in, waiting around for the fights to start, queuing for food, not being able to properly see everything going on, the itching, anxious feeling I get that increasingly builds and builds when my computer and I seperated, it's all too much.

    However I have to say I'd much rather be like CutMeMick, who feels no such anxiety, who loves to get out and socialise, who feels comfortable enough not only to presume he can sit ringside with the stars, but also has the audacity to dress better than them and approach them.

    If I had CutMeMick's personality I would definitely love going to the fights.

    I've never been to a live sporting event besides high school football and few Baltimore Orioles games. I left the stadium early each time.

    It is hard for me to imagine enjoying the fights amidst a restless crowd as much as I do viewing from the comfort of my own home. Snacks are free and there are no lines for the bathroom.

    Still, I have nothing to compare it to and Mick does make it sound amazing.

    Besides, I need the guys in the booth to tell me who won the fight. hehe

    Well the snacks are completely free as you paid for them at one point.
    When your VIP-Ringside you don't have to stand in line for anything.

    Truely is Silverback...
    You are there you are part of history.
    I will forever be part of JLC-Corrales 1.
    Only about 5,000 people were there that night in that arena to see what is argueably the greatest comeback & the greatest fight of all time.
    My eyes saw it, nobody needs to tell me anything about it cause I lived it I was there.

    Well considering I live In B.F....the land of very few local and Big Shows now a days..Its all about the Fatty Flat screen in my dwelling.Besides,I would just get to damn rowdy at a live card,end up missing the fights while defusing the local authorities.....
