    They never show these types of things on TV.

    But, I'm interested. What exactly happened or what did you see/hear?

      The first fight I attended was David Tua-Ed Guttierez, a FNF in NYC a few years back. I was writing for a lesser site and when I didn't get credentials for the show I knew it was time to make a change. Luckily a friend of mine had tickets. That was the night Jonathon Banks KO'ed Castillo.

      The first HBO show I went to was Malignaggi-Edner Cherry. I've actually never been to a world title fight.

                Some fight where my uncle was on the card, I was about 5 or 6. Then in junior high school, the schools in the area put on a tournament at a local nightclub where my cousin fought.

                Marquez Vazquez I was the first I went to as an adult.

                  My first was actually Jones-Calzaghe. And I might be going to Cotto-Jennings tomorrow.

                      First fight I ever saw live was Jones Jr/Ruiz in Vegas.
                      That was a hell of a fight fight to go to. I couldn't believe how many celebs were there. I sat next to Allen Iverson! He's a really nice guy actually. Very polite and soft spoken if you can believe it.
