    Do it. It's much better than watching it at a loud AZZ bar, casino, or house party. You're in the theater environment too, so everyone is conditioned to shut up and just watch. This means you won't have to hear the opinion of some random jackAZZes.

    Yeah, its cool if you like that atmosphere. People is still gonna be talking and clowning. You might even see a couple of live fisticuffs. The beauty of it is that you got that big ass screen with the surround sound and you can hear them punches when they land. However at home, you can record it and watch the next day cause youn know it gonna be a good fight.:bbb:bbb:bbb

    I watched the Mayweather/Marquez fight on the big screen. Well worth the $12 or $15 it cost. Big screen in HD, can't go wrong!

    I have a 55inch LED sony bravia 240hz.

    I bought it so I didn't have to regret not watching boxing in a theater.

    I have, for Marquez-Diaz 2, I enjoyed it. It's cool to have a crowd around you that isn't going to be too loud but at the same time gives the added feel of spectacle and fan-camaraderie. Big ass screen in a big dark room with other boxing fans, 4 times cheaper than it would be at home, and snacks available on entry. Sounds like a good deal to me.
