A great day at the boxing yesterday, 10 rows back! Reflecting on it now, the atmosphere was incredible and every person in the stadium watched a magnificent fight which exceeded expectations.
Tickets were $1250 each but included a hospitality package with all the food and beverage one could possibly consume.
The weather was fantastic also, about 20c and not a cloud in the sky!
Regardless of what people thought of the result, it was great to see two great boxers battle it out. The fitness of these guys is amazing. Boxing is great and to be great, you need a lot of mental toughness.
Also had the opportunity go touch the belt in the lead up. $20,000 worth of gold and very heavy. Kind of contradicts the belt label... belt.jpg
I cannot wait for the next opportunity to go along. Hopefully there is a rematch.
If you ever get the opportunity to get to Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane! Go, its a great stadium.
Here are some of the fight highlights
