    I'm still a "Boxing in person" virgin. I need to experience it at least once but living here in Des Moine makes it pretty impossible.

    Ive been to see

    Cotto in the Garden

    Pacman in Cowboy Stadium

    Amir Khan in London

    Klitschko in the Veltins Areana (Chagaev fight)

    Abraham in the O2 Berlin

    Hands down the best atmosphere and experiance I ever had was Bernard Dunne vs Ricardo Cordoba in the O2 in Dublin

    That **** was pure electric

    MEN, Hatton/Tszyu is hard to top. I'd love to see a big fight at the MGM though

    Kings Hall, Belfast. Or any other venue in Britain and Ireland (apart from the awful Excel arena).

    It's the fans who make it. A decapitated sheep makes more noise then you Yanks.

    Question: Are the seats near the ring elevated or on a flat floor?

    I tend to prefer smaller venues where everyone in there is a hardcore fight fan. Like the Broadway Boxing shows here in NYC.

    Although, seeing Adamek at the Prudential Center was awesome, even if I'm not Polish.
