I made the drive from Sacramento to Oakland to watch my first live professional fight.
Great experience. When Ward first knocked Dawson down the crowd erupted.
I paid $60 dollars for tickets in the high levels but I noticed that the $300 seats were fairly empty so I just sat there.
I saw Adrien Broner and shook his hand, he had the softest most feminine hands i've ever felt. I tried to get a picture but security whisked him away. He returned 10 mins later with some food in his hand, some guy asked for one of his chicken wings and Broner gave him some. Class act.
I saw Andre Berto too, there was a big crowd gathering around him asking him for pictures and autographs. He clearly didn't enjoy it, he took every picture with an ugly mug on his face so I didn't even bother asking him for one.
After the fight was over I saw Nonito Donaire walking with his wife. I yelled for his attention and he stopped. He probably thought I was going to ask him for a picture but instead I asked "when are you finally going to fight Rigondeaux?" He chuckled and walked away. lol
Pictures coming soon.

Lucky, I wanted to make the trip up to Oakland, it wouldve been my first fight too, but couldn't gather enough funds
LMAO! Good stuff! You can always expect nonsense from the Raider nation, and let's not forget Philly fans. Those guys are wild...football, baseball, and hockey...they dont give a f*ck.
I will be in Vegas next weekend for the Thurs edition of FNFs and the Chavez/Martinez weigh-in and fight. Hope to have a great experience.
I will totally ignore the fact that I'll be at the Thomas & Crack Center though. LOL
"Cheater!" "Can we take a pic?" :lol1:
Posted from Boxingscene.com App for AndroidI actually have a pic with him and the Watson Bros from the Guerrero fight. At this fight when we were walking in we saw Broner by the will call, fist pump only, and right after my wife got a pic with Nonito in the same area.

There was some but not as many as i'd like.
But I can understand now, I didn't know they were yelling that stuff at him. Maybe that's why then. He looked visibly upset.

Its oakland the raider mentality all northern cali dont give a fuckThere were some cool ones but not as many as you would like to see. Sat a few rows below this guy with a Miami hat and Raider Nation were giving him major crap. At the end we left cause drunk raider fans started throwing empty cups at him

Me and my wife though saw a totally different venue then you apparently because we were talking about how Ward brought a good crowd. The nosebleeds were fairly empty but down below was packed
So much for Oakland would be the better revenue, dude can;t even sell out in his own hometown.
Lol
You are now my idol in these forums. Never thought anyone would actually do that to a professional boxer. Thought they would be scared of getting punched or something.
Looking forward to the pics.
to be fair, man, donaire is a former flyweight. he's a little baby of a man. if you got a hold of him there wouldnt be a damn thing he could do. those guys uusally dont have an alpha male mentality, even the punchers. the reality is that donaire's power would look ordinary at 130 or 140 lbs.
it happens to them constantly. it's a lot more common on twitter, but people are very bold and rude to these guys, even in person.
HW are alpha males. they're a dying breed, and mostly fat at the club level, but they're still alpha males. if you insulted a HW he'd be much more likely to get in your face.
