    PLANET HOLLYWOOD is good for Boxing!!!

    The Las Vegas hotel that ran HOPKINS-CALZAGHE

    THey messed up with this fight, but i assume they wont overpay for a fight by almost 5 million dollars like they did this time.

    They are hosting Torres-Holt 2 and they are also Hosting KHans US debut and other Khan US fights.

    They have a 7,000 seat arena, which is perfect for boxing. Dan Rafael loves it.

      yeah they got screwed with pre-buying up all the tickets and marking them up real high, and man let me tell you the scalpers at the thomas and mack, i couldn't believe how many there were and how aggressive they were, i've never seen anything like it, they were fighting each other to sell tickets.

      but any who, the place to watch the fights at planet hollywood is a great place, it's a performing arts theater, i saw margarito fight gomez there, and it's a great place for music shows too.

      but it's set up theater style, there really isnt a bad seat in the house, it's just not a massive place, it's where they held the weigh in for hopkins-calzaghe..................

      good spot.

      just as a side note, we bought $1500. face value tickets, for $300. and there were a lot there being sold out in the parking lot. scalped tickets are the only way to go in vegas..................there great!

          they are gonna charge an arm and a leg for those tickets...only 7 thousand seats in an exclusive arena.

          bad for the casual fan who cannot afford 10 grand tickets.
