Out of those 25k people, like 23k were Cotto fans and the other 2k were the ***s that could afford the floor seatsComment

I didn't really like the stadium...
Madison Square Garden > Yankee Stadium...for fights in my opinion.
All the seats were so far from the ring, you couldn't hear **** when they were fighting. I found myself looking at the big screen more than the real fight, screen was cool, but I didn't go there to watch the fights on a big screen. I ended up moving my seat, to seats I could have gotten for cheaper to watch the Cotto-Foreman fight just so that I could see it.
I met Paulie Malignaggi, who was cool as hell. Met Roy Jones and he was an as$hole.
The main event was awesome though. I had a blast, but I think it would have been better at MSG. Stadium just didn't seem right for boxing to me.
nice pics by the wayComment

lol I just explained this to someone on Facebook, I'll just copy and post what I wrote.....
Met em yesterday in the Bronx, dude was wack lol. He was rude as hell and wouldn't even give me the time of day. Wouldn't take a picture with me or nothing. So when I seen em later I talked **** to em about getting knocked out by Danny Green it was mad funny lol. I met Paulie Malignaggi too, but he was cool as hell, great dude. I seen Luis Collazo too but didn't talk to em he was with Paulie.Comment
