Club shows been to maybe 20 with mostly no names and a few future champions.
Big fights
Morales vs. Espadas I - Decent fight, saw Mayweather/Judah/Duran in the crowd.
Six head Lewis Ko'd P4P great James page on the under card.
Morales vs. Barrera 2 - There was a huge brawl in the stands that went on for awhile, bunch of people got arrested. I was thinking how dumb those people are because they didn't even see the main event.
Bet money on Barrera but thought Morales won that fight, so did most people around me.
Fernando Montiel killed pedro Alcazar on the undercard.
Cotto also fought on that under card.
Pacquiao vs. Marquez I -One of the best fights I seen live, I thought Marquez won the fight but it was just amazing to see him come back.
Cotto fought on the under card and didn't really look great, he faded bad in that fight.
Morales vs. Carlos Hernandez - Good fight, nothing remarkable considering Morales has been in some all time great fights.
Rafael Marquez knocked out Heriberto Ruiz with 1 punch on the under card.
Chavez jr fought on the under card and his dad was whoring around for cheers.
Morales vs. Barrera 3 - Great fight - Best fight crowd I've ever been to, you couldn't hear Michael buffer because the crowd was so loud. Before the start of the 12 round people were stomping their feet and the arena felt like it was moving.
Undercard.
Oscar Larios
Rafael Marquez
Corales vs. Castillo 1 - What can I say about this fight, I've been a boxing fan for a long time so I know when a fight is good and this was amazing to see. I couldn't sit down for the last few rounds just watching in disbelief at how much sustained action was happening. The crowd was actually boo'ing when it was stopped.
JMM fought on the under card, pretty forgettable fight considering what was to come.
Hasim Rahman vs. Oleg Maskaev 2 - Turned out to be a pretty good fight and very nice comeback finish for Maskaev, I was sitting next to a guy who bet on Maskaev and he was a dog so it was cool to see him win.
Under card.
David Diaz
Humberto Soto - Good KO
Thurman vs. Diaz - Ok fight, had a few moments but corner stoppage was meh.
Under card.
Matthyssee - vs. John Molina jr - Great great fight, I remember thinking how crazy they were fighting at a distance where either guy could get ko'd.
Omar Figueroa looked crappy in his fight.
GGG vs. Rubio - - The ring walk was better than the fight.
Under Card.
Walters vs. Donaire - Very solid fight, Donaire had the crowd but Walters was just too strong.
When we first got there a fight between:
Jamie Ocegueda vs. Moris Rodriguez was going on, that fight was CRAZY, both guys were rocking each other and it ended after Moris almost had Ocegueda out and he came back to KO him. Rodriguez mother/family member was sitting next to us and she split after the highlight reel KO. Dude fell in slow motion, wish someone has a recording of that fight.
Pretty sure I've missing some fights but that's my first hand experience.

Garcia vs Thurman.
To me Garcia seemed so natural. His movement in the ring was like someone breathing or taking a walk down.
Then that ***** got hit by that right in round 1...god damn, his body contorted so weird it was like looking at your screen during a fight and someone TILTS your screen diagonally

Daniel Geale lives near me and i have rn into him on at least 3 occasions. Once at the hardware store with his wife...once at the bowling alley with his kids during school break...the first time was when my friend was fighting for an amateur state title...daniel had some kids there that he trained so i got a quick pic with him. Shannon Taylor...who lost his undefeated record to Shane Moseley was there also...but he had suffered a stroke not to long before that and was a real cranky preck
