    Whose watched fight at Mandalay Bay before?

    Just booked my trip to Vegas for Khan vs Peterson. Buying tickets tomorrow. Seems like all good seats are gone, i go to ticketmaster and only seats that pop up on 100 level when i do "best available" are for the corners which seems really far from ring.

    I could do the $150 ticket sitting in second round of 200 level on the sides (not corners, but kinda close to corner), but will it be ****ty up there? Seems kinda high, how is view from there? Also how will atmosphere be up there?

    I went once and I was sitting in the upper level, the way the arena was set up it seemed like we were a little too far from the ring. Next time I prolly wont go unless I have lower level seats. Thats the thing with boxing fights, its only 2 humans in a little ring throwing punches at each other, its hard to get a good show from far away. I must say that its always pretty cool just to be at a major fight tho.

      I live in Vegas, seen plenty of fights at Mandalay, MGM, and small ones at the Hard Rock Casino..

      My suggestion, since Khan vs. Peterson isnt a HIGH PROFILE fight I would suggest purchasing the cheapest tickets then moving to the closer seats as the fight comes closer.

      I bought cheap seats to Judah vs. Khan held at Mandalay and we moved up to the lower level seats as the fight progressed. Trust me, if you got ninja skills like me you can do it, some ushers will even let you do it if you slip them a $20..

      Oh yeah, even did it with Morales vs. Maidana at MGM Grand..

        This right here. I did the exact same thing at Khan vs Judah. The place isn't going to sell out and you can just gradually move down. I'm guessing maybe 7,500 to 8,000 tickets will be sold out of a possible 12,000, so there will be plenty of oppurtunities.

                agree. I've pulled this off several times. I do this for all sporting events. I pulled it off at Wrestlemania last week too. LOL. It never hurts to ask and if an usher doesnt allow it, just go on and ask the next one.

                I paid $34 (cheapest seat on STUBHUB) for Juanma vs Marquez fight and then do to seating fill ins for camera views, I received a hell of an upgrade to a $200-$300 seat by asking an usher who apparently had a stack of tickets to give to upper deck folks.
