    FMJr vs JMM movie theater showing experience

    It was my first time watching a boxing match in a movie house. I went in seconds before the first undercard bout started and I thought I'm going to watch the fight together with the empty seats. I was wrong, the turn-out was excellent, it was packed with 200 sitting capacity!!! There are no posters or schedule posted about the fight at the theater entrance, I went to the box office and asked about the fight and paid $15....

    Crowd is a mix, white older men with their wives, young and old black guys with wives/girlfriends, young hispanics , Indian and several Filipinos.....

    Overall it was worth the $15 I coughed-up for a fight perceived by many to be a boring fight...

    Who said boxing is dying?

                  Question : Were people loud during the fight? I know me at home, every time a punch landed I start cursing at the screen. Any of that?

                    Out here in Las Vegas they were only showing the fight in two casinos, Sam's town and Santa Fe Station and both sold out. I was one of the people that didn't think this would happen but to my surprise, many people were all into it. I don't believe boxing is dying.
