Is anyone planning to go to fight. I am desperate to go but none of my mates can afford to go. Just wondered if anyone else is in the same position. Has anyone from the forum ever met up before a big fight I think it would be awesome to go on a eastside trip to for the fight.
I am definately going with 4 mates. Already booked 5 nights at the MGM Grand two weeks ago!!! Although I used to live in NYC over ten years ago I have never been to Vegas and I am giddy as a virgin!!
Re: Pacquiao v Mayweather Trip im hopefully goin with 1 of my mates. u can tag along where u from I live in cornwall was thinking of flying from london and maybe going for a week have u done any other vegas trips for fights.
in all honesty I would have rather cut my balls off with a rusty nail than gone to Vegas with the majority of the ******s that followed Hatton out there. They werent boxing fans in my eyes. Hopefully this should be different.
Not a chance i'll have the money for march which is annoying, im still stunned they're doing this that early. Hopefully the winner faces Mosley later in the year and i'll go to that, or see what Cotto is doing in NY in June.
Yeah I agree with you about some of the fans that where there. When we where in the mgm just outside the garden arena there was a lot of brit fans all autograph hunting. While I was getting my pic taken with donaire, juan diaz and brian vilora and talking to vilora for about 10 mins all the other brits we saying things like we the **** are all the celebrities and boxers we havn't seen any yet.
I went to the pacquiao hatton fight aswell unbelievable buzz and excitment around the place it just seems such a let down know watching big fights on telly how long r u planning on going for.
all depends on whether i can get a ticket for the fight or not - the missus wanted a trip to mexico but i think i can put that on hold to next year to compensate for the fight
When did you lot start shitting money? Christ, I'd love to go. But anything over a grand puts me out the game.
You aint got a chance mate. I'll be surprised if theres any more than 2k available for normal sales and even then they'll be wanted by 100s of thousands of people.
I am suprised its so soon aswell reminds of when they announced calzaghe v rjj and it was 8 weeks from when they announced it. Also big fights normally have 5 or 6 months promotion and build up.
Is it even 100% confirmed yet? Last i heard they were still thrashing out the terms etc. March isnt ideal...I was hoping it would be May/June but im still seriously considering going.
