Tickets for the MSG

I am on Holiday with the wife in NY when the Khan fight is on. Seems like too good an opportunity to miss. Anyone have experience buying fight tickets for the MSG who can give me advise on good seats and where and when to purchase then?

 

Give them a call, IIRC you can pay and pick the tickets up when you get over there.

 

Perfect timing, I'd defo go if I was there.

 

Ive been a couple of times. It is awesome, you must go

Tix are on sale March 16

Look at prices and get the best you can afford

I was in block 20 for Cotto-Mosley which was mindblowing. Superb view, really close.

Ortiz v Campbell should be a beauty too so good work :good

 

as GazOc says you can buy in advance and pick them up over there ("International Will call" is the term for that).

Can buy direct from the site I posted or ticketmaster

 

I don't think this is in the main MSG arena itself, something tells me its in the smaller WaMu theater there-where the second Diaz fight was.

 

I've heard that as well Chris....

 

ur right mate think it holds about 5 or 6000.
shud be a good view everywhere

 

I thought that too but you would have thought it would be listed as such wouldn't you? No mention on the MSG website. All will become clear when tickets go on sale I guess

 

I dunno, I seem to recall thinking how flat the seating looked at the Diaz fight. Not quite Excel Arena flat though. I might be wrong.

 

really. i aint 100% so just assumed it wud be being a small arena. the excel is crap

Scroll down to the bottom of the page, and it says its at "The theater at MSG"

I'd love to go an watch a big fight at the proper MSG, but there seems to be less and less there these days. I'd imagine it'd be a dam site cheaper for us over here than if it was in Vegas.

 

think it costs more to fly to new york than vegas last time i looked and hotels are expensive to

 

I stand corrected.

Apparently one reason less boxing ends up there is that taxes in NY are much higher than in, for example Vegas.

 

id rather a weekend in vegas than new york anyway altho i never been to new york
