    I really enjoyed Jimmy's Corner Bar while in New York for the Cotto-Margarito fight.Remember,Jimmy's take CASH only and drinks are $3 a pop.Great atmosphere and easy to get to_On 44th just a block west of Times Square.
    The puck and wings,on 32nd (next to the Gardens) is also a must on fight night.Drop in for a few before the fights.:thumbsup

    Cheers lads, I'm there with the wife and kids for a week, got one night to do my own thing. Jimmy's corner is favourite at the moment.
