    I’ve always wanted to watch a fight like that

      Hopefully in the theater. I've only done one fight that way which was Floyd vs Cotto and it was a good time. I'm 36, I don't have any interest in a rowdy scene when I watch the fights. I'd prefer to listen to it than be hammered and listen to people talk **** over the telecast the whole time. For me the huge screen and comfortable seats made it really enjoyable.

        I really enjoyed watching fights on that giant ass screen doe. Visually I think they were my two favorite cards to watch due to the larger then I've seen fights on screen.

        This time around I'll be watching at some closed circuit venue and I'm not entirely sure how that works and if it's a big ass screen or what. I was looking for theaters, but they either aren't allowing that in Vegas or they didn't have the details ironed out with theaters here when I was checking out venues showing the fight last week.
        what theaters show it out here in vegas? never tried looking it up lol

            I think I will go to the theater for this. I've only done that once and it was for Hopkins-Jones II, so there were only like 8 people in there lol. But it was still cool watching fights on the big screen. And really if there was a decent crowd of fight fans I think it would make it a fan atmosphere.

              Last time, I watched it live on a hidden Spanish channel in my cable line up for free. I hope it will be on it this time.

                I will be heading down the pub to watch it free at 10:30 on a Sunday morning.
                I like the atmosphere.

                    I wasnt here for a big fight til this one so idk for sure. I did look at the fathom events list on the initial day this theater news got released & no NV theater let alone Vegas theater was on the list.

                    Several casinos are doing closed circuit shows but idk if thats a similar sized screen or not + the tickets seem to start at $100 vs $20 for theater tickets.

                      It's almost always American or UK commentators.
