I was just watching some youtube replays of this years event and I think the venue could be much better.
Remembering how York Hall was so impressive for europe's yeam and fans this is the kind of thing I think we need also. Not a casino where there is too many other distractions. huh?

This place was closed in 2010 per Wiki.
(The Blue Horizon was closed, reportedly due to tax problems, in June 2010.[1] In January 2011, it was announced that $6 million had been granted to help West Philadelphia developer Mosaic Development Partners build an $18 million hotel-and-restaurant complex with a jazz bar and fitness center at the site of the Blue Horizon.[2])

Something like this would be ideal imo.

The Legendary Blue Horizon
1314 N. Broad Street
Philadelphia, PA
53,000 square foot mixed-use development

The transformation of this legendary boxing venue will make way for a boutique hotel and restaurant while honoring its long-standing boxing history. the venue, once complete, will cater to the Temple University community, tourists and convention center visitors.

Then it may help to have a better intro song like James Brown "Living in America" as heard in one of the Rocky movies !
 
I guess nobody else feels the way I do here.

I'm sure you can be satisfied paying 7.50 for a beer and then leaving a tip besides !

What about Atlantic City ?

Time zone maybe better all around there.

But I still like the old Blue Horizon. It was a fantastic venue for many a boxing match, that is for sure !
