    Get a feel for fighting in an empty arena tonight

    It’s UFC so don’t get too excited. Take your hand out of your pants. You should check it out though to see what you’re in store for when boxing returns.

    I watched the PPV last week so now I know what watching world class athletes fight in front of no one is like. Its actually pretty cool in its own way. Hard to describe.

      Because I know my hand would be in my pants when I read that title. Got to think one step ahead.

        I caught some highlights of the first two shows they did. I found it easy to watch despite their being no audience.

        Watching the Bundesliga today though and it was painful to watch football with no crowd.

          Who you got tonight? Even at 40 YO with his 20 losses I still think the Reem will have too much for Harris. I think he wins early.

            Don't know why it's too much of a big deal in boxing when soccer matches are being planned without fans. Eleven players for each team.

            Boxing without hundreds of people in attendance could be likened to fighters sparring in a gym. I'm sure people at home would still be watching.

            What are the other choices, anyway?

              I was thinking of going with a Harris decision at +650. Could see him getting sympathy scorecards since his daughter was just murdered. I know in my heart it isn’t going 5 rounds though. Went with Overeem by KO.

              Also got Baeza by KO and Ige by decision.

                With boxing you don’t really have to see the crowds, the even black out areas to make it look like the arena is full. With football it’s just difficult to fathom, watching the Germany football league today made me feel like I don’t even want to watch football anymore. It was soooooooooooo boring.

                  on most boxing cards, the undercard fights are dead, that's basically what we're looking at.
