    Which Las Vegas Casino/Hotel have the best boxing venues?

    Now I'm talkin like how the arena is, what the atmosphere is like and how the ring girls are. I've never been to a fight in Vegas and I gotta know which one would be the best to go see a fight. No doubt it also depends on the card and who's fighting but I like a nice loud electric crowd ya know?

      Why aren't there fights at Caesar's Palace anymore? The Colisseum definitely has a historic feel to it. I've been to fights at MGM and the atmostphere doesn't compare.

        Mandalay was the nicest one that I've been to. The Orleans Arena was the worst (although I've heard the Thomas & Mack is the very worst). BTW, ring girls can vary from any one card to another. They aren't hired by the arena.

            I dont know honestly. The last one I think was Margarito Cintron I and it went well.

            and yeah scott Thomas and Wack is by far the worst venue. First off its not even near the strip about about 2 miles east of it. Unless you drove into Vegas you have to either taxi, bus or limo to it. The venue itself is just angled poorly so the fighters appear far.

            I like MGM's set up because they have two bars (Zuri and Rogue) right there so you can grab a drink just before you head in

              I have been to the Cox Pavillion a couple of times, it is a smaller venue right next to the T&M Center. It is a very nice small arena.

                Mandalay bay is the shiiiiat

                MGM is good, even the nose bleeds are decent

                Thomas and Mack is ****ty and it looks old as **** inside

                Orleans has a small little venue where they have the club shows which is dope, the arena is crap

                The Pearl at the Palms is really nice since its so small

                The Joint at the Hardrock is also a nice place because it's so small

                I went to a fight card at the Tropicana last month and the place was pretty decent
