    hopefully!...I flew to NY to see the Cotto vs Clottey fight and that kind of left my pockets in a recession, so we'll see.

    Yeh **** the MGM, i usually stay at the excaliber, dirt cheap & you can crawl accross the bridge's when your'e totalled & WHO STAYS IN THERE ROOM ANYWAY? I stayed at the Mirage 4 the Hatton/Pac fight, $700 for 6 nights it's called the Volcano deal & it ai'nt on there main website that if yer want 2 be middly/diddly ov the strip.

    They'll proberby be the usuall 3/400+ flying over from the UK, crazy long haul, but we have these invasion geans in us, BRING IT ON:happy

    I'm flying in on Thursday with a buddy of mine he is not into boxing as I am but he was down for the trip.

    I will look at info to see how far Vegas Hilton was from the MGM. I may rent a car so I don't really care but we'll see.

    You will def need a car or you can catch the monorail. But I would suggest staying in the MGM area.

    The MGM is only like 3-4 miles from the Hilton. No biggie to me. I can troop it if I have to. I bought my air fare and hotel and got a discount so I'm not keen on changing it.

    What time you getting in on Thursday and what's good to do in Vegas during the morning and afternoon hours that don't necessarily involve the casinos?

    Circus Circus is pretty far, but the prices are unbeatable. I'm not planning on spending much time in the room anyway.

    I will be there by 11am. Im renting Ninja Bikes... Pretty cheap. Its like $65 a day but you have to put a $1000 deposit and it gets returned if the bike is in one piece.

    On Friday you have the weigh in...

    I might hit up the Pubs in NY NY on Thursday. Should have some interesting bands etc...

    My friends and I are planning to go...we will likely stay at the Wynn. I know it is far from the MGM but we will have a car. I am just waiting to hear about getting the tickets. This will be our first time to see a Pac fight live. Win or lose, as long it is an exciting fight...I will have no complaints.

    So.....Should I do MGM or Mandalay Bay? First time to Vegas, so take it easy on me! Id think that everyone would want to say MGM and I think I'd rather do MGM because thats where the fights gonna be. But I think my girl prefers Mandalay because of the pool/beach. Actually......the pools will be open in mid November? The weather should be what? In the 70's?
