    Why won't they watch the fight!!?

    When the crowd look to the left or to the right in unison - what the hell are they looking at? Because it sure isnt the fight.

    I've noticed this in a lot of fights, peoples attention will just turn from the fight because of some incident. Whats usually the cause of this, a fight in the crowd or something?

    During Pac-Bar2 last night, every1 was looking up to some part of the arena, while the fight was on. So it couldnt have been a replay video on a big screen.

    Why is the stadium architecture so fascinating to these fans??

    ********

    On a side note.

    People who go to boxing matches just to talk with their friends, or chat on their ****ing cellphones. It drives me insane.

    How many times have you seen people turning around talking to someone, only to miss the KO. Then they turn around with a shock on their faces.

    *******s.

      In the replays of the Jones/Tarver II, you can see some guy in the 4th row staring off at the cheap seats or something when the knockout happens. It's hilarious.

      Shoot, when I go to fights I try not to blink!

          I hate those kind of people.
          When I watch a fight I'm so glued into it it's not even funny. People try to talk to me, I never make eye contact with anyone until round is over lol.

            The only reason I would look away is if a fight where to break out among the audience.But only for a few seconds!

              what about the people who watch the fight on tv, but instead of watching the fight, they just watch the people in the stands...see what famous person is out there.

                LOL, actually YES.

                My friend who isnt really into boxing. I showed him Gatti-Ward 1

                By round 6, I make a remark on a particular punch, and he goes 'Huh?' like he just came out of a dream.

                He was staring at some girl in the audience for the entire fight!

                  It is that way because a lot people go to fights just to be seen or say I was at that live not because they are true fans of boxing.

                    yup, definitely fights in the crowds. i was over at margarito vs williams in carson, ca, and a brawl would erupt every 15 minutes, it was quite the scene.
