    I'm booking Cotto vs Margarito...who has been to MSG before?

    Yo, so im in the process of booking tickets for this fight but I wanted to see who has been to MSG and if they have recommendations for seating.

    Im looking at some fairly inexpensive tickets, around 70 (which is almost 100 after processing) and was eyeing 344, 326 and 318.

    Im liking 344 because its on the opposite side of the TV platform.



    Id appreciate any suggestions, even if they mean more expensive tickets.

    Thanks

    I haven't been to MSG in many years, but i would highly recommend buying what ever tickets you can afford. I personally got ring side in section 12....

    i would personally recommend the 100's section, if they are out of your range, try for the 200's. Anything higher and you will be renting binoculars and regretting it. Just my 2 cents!

      A good call. I should have prefaced this with the fact that I am going with my friend who is not a huge boxing fan, so I feel bad asking him to shell out.

        Why are you looking to purchase from a broker? Why not go to TM and buy at face value? Or was that just to show us the arena? I've never been to MSG, only Yankee Stadium for the Cotto fight so I can't help you out. Still undecided if I can afford to fly out for this fight although it is kind of important since I was at the first fight.

          try and sit on the sides as opposed to the ends

          i saw cotto v clottey there and sat in 132 i think and you're still stuck watching it on the bigscreen, if you're in the 200-300 seating range i'd aim for the sides... thats the best i can tell ya man

            this! they want $1.7k for a seat i paid $650 for!

            edit: im sure your friend wont regret shelling out for this fight!!! so far looks like a great undercard and the main event has fire works written all over it
