    I like the fact Turki is making good/great cards happen but would rather watch them at my house or bar.
    Well said...why pay for flights, hotels and fight tickets to watch a fight in a BORING atmosphere when you can't even let your hair down and enjoy yourself properly without the fear of getting arrested?

    I've been to several fights in Vegas (including Pacquiao-Marquez 4) and not only has the atmosphere been ELECTRIC every single time, the opportunity to go clubbing and g@mbling makes it even more worthwhile!

            Sorry to disappoint you brother but Vegas wh0res are on another level!

            Seriously though, partying in Vegas after a big boxing match is an experience like no other (especially when there's loads of Mexican hotties around). Put it on your bucket list.

                      1st has anyone here been to the fights in SA? I feel like he is dropping the ball in having the fights out there because not to many people is going to fly out there just for a good match it has to be may vs pac type of event. I understand they want to make that the boxing Mecca but come on.

                      the haney vs teo fight should have easily landed in New York or Vegas. Now you got two Americans fighting in a foreign country. And don’t get me started on that Garcia vs rolly card catastrophe. How do you have a deep card like that but closed off to the public? Its almost like he is going out his way to sabotage himself lol
                      Feb 22nd. Was a great atmosphere. Was a small arena so great view. And no alcohol makes it even better no smelly alcoholics and no drunk idiots. If you want to go for the boxing experience itself and you don't need alcohol to have a good time go for it. But go when there is a good card. Feb 22nd was stacked top to bottom. I would only go again if there was a similar card that way if 1 or 2 fighters pull out still should be worth going. The other thing is Beterbiev Bivol started around 2am. I thought that was late but was still good atmosphere and fight.

                      Canelo Scull ringwalk i didn't go but Saudi time would have been about 6.15am that is why it was also dead. I think that would be the same for Teo Haney as they are US fighters. For fights they need on primetime US i don't think it would be worth going to watch a main event at 6.15am. 2am was not too bad
