    I expect to see pictures and a full report of the entire nights fights on Monday.

    You've been warned.

    Have a great time man.

    CutMeMick,
    I did the same for the Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs Juan Manuel Marquez fight. I arrived early when the MGM Grand was almost empty. I was surprised that even though the ticket said the event started at a certain time, hours before there were fights.

    When people started coming in, 3 fights before the main event, I saw empty seats in the distance and I kept my eyes fixed on those seats as the fights went on. Nobody was seating in those seats so on the main event I simply walked down there and took them. The worse thing that could have happened is have some guys tell me “Excuse me, those are my seats” and I would just act dumb as if I got confused with my tickets and move back to my seats, no problem. I do the same for concerts.

    Great advice, Mick! My only beef with some of the undercard fights is the lack of atmosphere in an empty arena. For some reason it makes the fight less exciting but if you go to a lesser show, for example in the U.K, Sky Sports still use leisure centres and small halls for their TV shows, there is always a good atmosphere regardless. From the 1st fight through to the main event which I love

    Great shout on the changing seats too..I did that for the Haye vs Enzo fight - We were so high in the rafters, I spotted some seats on the ground level which weren't taken up until the main event so I tried to navigate towards them on my own and managed to find the seats without being questioned. Friends loved me for that

    Either way our good seats didn't last very long as it was a 2 rounder!

    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I also bring a tiny notebook and pencil to score the fights. Watching multiple back to back I can never remember what scored if I don't write them all down at the time. My buddy and I that I watch fights with both do this and then compare cards after each fight, it's one of may fav parts.
