$150 worth it to see Calzaghe/Jones LIVE? Please advise.

im selling an extra ticket for $150. section 333 right in the middle. im willing to negotiate the price.

I'm actually in NYC for the first time but there is no way I'm gonna pay that much to stand at the back of an arena watching a TV screen. Think I'm going to look for a bar close to MSG and watch it there.

if u want go if not go out and spend some money on yourself, its a win win situation.

Go to it man! Don't listen to people that say it isnt worth it. If someone thinks watching a fight from the upper seats isn't worth it, then they are not big enough fans of the sport. this is a big fight and you'll get a chance to see one of the best fighters in the history of this sport in RJJ. The atmosphere is going to be great!!! the fight is going to be great!!! get those tickets, drink up in the arena and you'll have a great time trust me!! co-sign. the atmosphere alone will be worth it. there should be plenty bitches around too.

i got an extra ticket in the 333 section right in the middle. i bought it for round 275 but ill cut the price down. hit me up wit a pm.

My opinion is, if u cant get a good seat to see the fight, then just watch it from home. I've been to a few fights myself. I've sat 6rows from the ring for one, and in the bleachers for the other. Although the crowd experience is nice, im a fan of the fight itself, not the fan experience. Save your money and spend it on food/beer/liqour instead, invite some of the guys over, and watch it on tv.

Hi Tickets are available for the Calzaghe/Roy Jones Jr. fight at Madison Square Garden for $150 a ticket, however the seats are very far away (in the 300's way off to the side (not center)). I like watching boxing on TV but would not call myself a huge fan. However, I always wanted to go to one live. Everyone I speak to (although none of them have ever been to a match) say that it isn't worth it unless you are very, very close to the ring. But like I said, I've never heard from anyone who actually has gone. MY QUESTION: Is it fun to see a match live even if you are far (very far) away? Is it worth it for $150 when I can just go to a bar for and see it for $10? I don't mind paying the money, but just need someone to tell me what its like being so far away and if it is worth it as I don't want to spend the money to find that it is not fun and it looks like I am watching ants. Please advise. Thank you for your help IMO, if you can't afford a better ticket, use that money to watch that fight and two other PPV's later.

Hell yeh i pay... $150. I pay more then that for an ounce of the cheese bud so i would pay that 4sure

This is a no-brainer. Go! If you would've had gone to other fights live, then maybe it'd be worth thinking and debating about it. But regardless whether you're far or close, the fact that you've never been to a fight means that you'll be completely overwhelmed at the atmosphere and see how boxing really is. Hell, I've only been to one boxing event (it was in some thread I made with pics and everything a few months ago). The fights were very low level fights and even then I was suprised by many things: 1-) How fast punches really are (in TV they look slower). Seeing them thrown live (by a relatively novice fighter) looks quick and painful, imagine a fight where an expert throws fierce 3 and 4 punch combinations landing at will... 2-) The ring seems sooooooooooo much smaller. You might think that it shouldn't be like that, but it is. There was a TV located above the stands and whenever I watched the fight through it, everything normal all of a sudden. The camera angles and shots used make the ring seem much bigger than it really is. It makes you realize how enclosed a ring is... 3-) Watching someone get knocked out by a hail mary shot and stay out cold is incredible. The roar of the crowd and the atmosphere is incredible... I've made my points. You HAVE to be there. Trust me on this one...if you've ever wanted to go to a boxing match but never gone to, do so now.

umm all teh 150 tix are gone my friend ...good luck

150 bucks to watch a girl with broken arms fight? why not just jump off a cliff for 50 bucks?

I will always favor going to the venue to watch the fights, to me is money well spent, this depends on your budget if you can afford it- by all means do attend..

I was at the mezzanine seats for jones trinidad and its not as bad as you say. I was able to see the fighters clearly but do recommend checkin out the tv. 150 is alot and if u live in ny I recommend you buy them at msg and not ticketmaster but i'm gonna go, theres a lot of boxing comming to the east coast now and i'm going there and to cunniham and adamek

i agree completely... whenever i've went to a live event of any kind there are always vacated seats closer to the action that you can sneak down to... but beware...if you get caught they will toss you out of the arena... dont go closer to the action during the undercards and the place never really fills in until the main event or last undercard... i say get the $150 ticket and try to get closer...if you cant the atmosphere still cant be beat from inside the arena...there are tv's showing the action...so dont worry about seeing ants...i've never been to MSG so i cant tell you what the view looks like from the section you would be getting tickets for... you can always bring binoculars (sp???) to get a better view...and if you can get a camera in there you could wind up with some good pictures... i wanted to go to hatton v. malignaggi in vegas but the cheapest tickets are around $250-$300 and they are nosebleed seats...since i live in cali its a bit of a journey to pay too much for bad tickets but if you live in NEW YORK i say go watch it live. you will have fun. also... look at it this way...it costs $50 on PPV...if you go you get to see more undercard fights (if you didnt know there are usually a couple more hours worth of undercards that dont get televised) and you get the experience of being there with the possibility to maybe even meet some boxers...in big PPV fights many world famous boxers (current and retired) show up. go. i believe for this fight the 150 seats are the mezzanine seats way up top. And they are definetly some horrible horrible seats for a boxing match. U cant see shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit or hear shit. But being part of the atmosphere is a ton of fun. I would bring binocs. I saw Mosley-Cotto from way up there and i couldnt see jack. but the big screens showed everything so it was fine, and it was great being a prt of the atmosphere.... Thing is, those seats for Cotto-Mosley only cost 50 bucks, these cost 3x as much!!!

Do it!!! I wasnt sure my first time...I was half way up. i too was watching on the screen and the ring..Trust me when you get in there the atmosphere is electric and its a once in lifetime type of experience! Do it plus not to mention the beautiful women!!!!

150 might not get you a great seat but if the fight is a great, and it has the potential to be just think you can say you were there, i would have paid 500 for the worst seat to be able to say i saw hagler hearns live

the place should be pretty empty, i bet those 150$ seats could get u a 500$ seat if u sneak down i agree completely... whenever i've went to a live event of any kind there are always vacated seats closer to the action that you can sneak down to... but beware...if you get caught they will toss you out of the arena... dont go closer to the action during the undercards and the place never really fills in until the main event or last undercard... i say get the $150 ticket and try to get closer...if you cant the atmosphere still cant be beat from inside the arena...there are tv's showing the action...so dont worry about seeing ants...i've never been to MSG so i cant tell you what the view looks like from the section you would be getting tickets for... you can always bring binoculars (sp???) to get a better view...and if you can get a camera in there you could wind up with some good pictures... i wanted to go to hatton v. malignaggi in vegas but the cheapest tickets are around $250-$300 and they are nosebleed seats...since i live in cali its a bit of a journey to pay too much for bad tickets but if you live in NEW YORK i say go watch it live. you will have fun. also... look at it this way...it costs $50 on PPV...if you go you get to see more undercard fights (if you didnt know there are usually a couple more hours worth of undercards that dont get televised) and you get the experience of being there with the possibility to maybe even meet some boxers...in big PPV fights many world famous boxers (current and retired) show up. go.

the Place Should Be Pretty Empty, I Bet Those 150$ Seats Could Get U A 500$ Seat If U Sneak Down Lmao I Doubt It's Empty On Fight Night!!!!

if i ur local why not . . . i am going to watch andrade/bute this friday and i already have tickets to molitor/caballero. but i am in canada and intriguing fights like those dont come by near me everyday so i couldn;t live with myself if i didn;t go. if thats the way you feel, that you would really regret it afterwards if you didnt go then just do it.
