I've never been to a theater showing of a PPV, always purchased them at home. I'd kinda like to experience what its like but nothing like the comfort of home, and having no one standing in the way or being obnoxious. Maybe if it was an imax type of theater I'd take the chance but even the most modern theaters here in PR aren't that great, and neither are my fellow jibaro boricuas which reign the island. Very few of us Americanized civilized new age high class modern PRicans.

I think Movie Theaters are always a good alternative. Get the fight for much less cost, use the exyra to buy food/drinks and then you go out right after.

I watched Mayweather vs maidana one at the theatre and I couldn't recommend it more. You don't have to be silent, everyone is friendly and they serve alcohol right there under and to the left of the screen. I'll go see khanelo if it isn't too far away

Well damn. They might get my money after all. I watched Mayweather vs Cotto at the theater and enjoyed it. Just pure fight fans screaming at the screen. I usually like to watch fights by myself to really pay attention to everything rather than listening to random drunks walking in and out of a room like most fight parties, but when its a fight like this where I feel the only suspense is how long it takes Khan to fold up I can afford to miss some things.

Wasn't going to buy this fight on PPV but they snuck in with a different way to take my money. I watched Alvarez vs Lara in a theater, was a pretty good time.
