    Going to a boxing event ON YOUR OWN, have you ever done that??

    I’m thinking bout going to Tyson fury vs wilder but as hardly any of my family or friends are boxing fans I’ll most likely have to go on my own.

    Have you ever been to a boxing match on your own? Is it a bit weird just sitting there on your own for 3-4 hours? Do people stare at you thinking what a loner?

    I went to Oscar Valdez vs quigg in carson California by myself. It was a rainy day, smoked and drank by myself in the car. Drank with some other boxing fans that were tail hating talked some boxing. Luckily I seen someone selling ponchos, so that helped a lot being it was a outdoor arena. All in all I had a good memorable time. It's the only time I went by myself, but I would do it again. Usually I go with my friend or a lady friend, but it was just one of those times. Cheers man just go to watch the gypsy king. I went to the first one good times.

      Cigarettes or weed?

      You sound like a cool cat, I like to do things by myself sometimes too. When I used to frequent a sports bar to watch MMA fights I'd drive down by myself and drink by myself - sometimes I'd take a mate or two but I don't like conversing during a fight, I am always glued to the screen.

      I get annoyed when people try and talk to me or just talk in general during a fight. Why the hell are you going to a fight if you aren't watching it? To give the appearance that you are some tough guy that likes sports and fighting?

      SIDE NOTE: Watch out for this: Whenever you are watching a fight on TV or wherever, look at the females in the audience. Their heads are almost ALWAYS turned away from the actual fight and they are talking to their partner or glued to their phone.

      If you are a man, don't bring your woman to a fight, it is cringe worthy. I treat a fight like a battlefield and women have no place there, they are a nuisance and DKSA ANYTHING, let alone fighting and the primal instinct it awakens in males. It's why I also hate female commentators, the high pitched voice is aggravating beyond belief when you are in 'battle mode'. I know it sounds weird because we aren't the ones fighting, but that's just how it is. Call it biology

        Haven't gone alone but there's nothing wrong with it. Usually when I go to events I end up talking a lot to other fans and trainers, talk to and get pics with fighters. If you're going by yourself spend a little bread and get floor seats, when you're not watching fights you can talk a lot of boxing with the people I mentioned

          I went to Chicago for Diaz - Malignaggi II by myself and it was a lot of fun. You’ll probably end up talking to the people around you some. No ones going to care that you are alone. You should definitely go

            Cigaweed my friend I'm from cali, it's a must. I agree I went with two lady friends before and it's a waste. I also agree, I am glued to the fight. Nothing wrong with going to a fight by urself, I actually recommend to try it out. Guaranteed u will remember that very day. Cheers brothers

              Ive been to a ton of fights solo its no big deal bro.

              If you go solo you can still have ton of fun. You will get more of the night then going with friends who want to miss the under card fights or get food and drinks or walk around. I actually prefer to go solo and if friends end up going we all meet up for a shot or whatever at some point.

              People don't view u as a loner they actually give you props for being a BIG fan enough to go solo.

                    I was at Groves-Eubank by myself. It was cool, the atmosphere was good and everyone was drinking so a lot of people would just strike up conversations with you. Who you think will win, what have you bet on, do you want some coke etc.
