I'm from NY and only go to Barclay fights. The crowd is different there. More live more fun, more fights lol. Do they even fight in the MSG crowds.

Been to a few Barclay events and some of the fighters and trainers from the earlier cards actually go into the stands and mingle with the fans since some follow them from there home towns.

Hurds trainer came into my row with the belt he won from the Trout fight.

You missed out on the first Joshua/Ruiz fight then lol. I remember the Irish and British fans fighting in the crowd immediately after Ruiz won. It was so crazy that security couldn’t get it under control. They just let the guy go on with his business.

Barclays is the home of boxing in NY. They've sold way more tickets for boxing than MSG and hosted more boxing events. Promoters don't like going to MSG unless it's a guaranteed ticket seller because it's so expensive to rent out.

They used to be. They've fallen off hard ever since MSG got back in the game.
