    Yes, most MGM owned properties usually offer closed circuit. I haven't seen any info on what the prices will be or when they go on sale. The fight itself has to sell out first before closed circuit can go on sale. Hopefully there is more news on it soon

        Yes you can but im worried they sell to guests first them offer to other hotel guests. Im at Palazzo.

        Hundreds of thousands and maybe 30-40K CC. Im hoping more but also have to consider price tag for CC. I think $150 is done.

        Damnit!!!

        Hope im wrong!

        Edit: Now my mind is playing games

              I would agree to a point .... In a stadium, you would still end up watching the big screen most of the time. Aside from being part of the event, HDTV will do fine.

                  What kind of **** is that
                  Why would they need to do that? I mean I guess they know better but I would imagine all MGM properties are going to be full capacity with the crowd expected to come over.

                    The CC price per person is usually the same as the PPV price. All this means is go to an MGM owned spot, stand in line, and watch it on a big screen in a conference room with a bunch of seats. Did it before and had a blast!!

                      See this is that BS

                      This is going to discourage many people from going if they were still thinking about it or those that are going to watch the closed circuit...that means MGM controls the pricing on this...

                      Who knows how much it will be...I'm almost like fugg this and just go out of town and order the PPV and have a party
