Thanks for the info, see if you can find out the how the atmosphere of the event is, what big names showed up?
 
Any more updates? Is it like a basketball crowd (screaming all the time), golf crowd, or totally silent? Is the arena packed?

Thanks.
 
I'll ask him as soon as he calls. I have heard from others that it is very expensive to get in around $30-$40 a person.. Can't confirm that price but got it froma good source.

Compared to most Vegas shows, I would say that is very reasonable.

So I take it he won the first set of a possible 3 as it was supposedly a race to 9. And inquiring minds want to know why in the world would they hold this major event(supposedly) in the middle of the afternoon? In a city that never sleeps you would think a night time venue would be more appropriate and popular. Are they maybe playing another set tonight? Probably the last one.
Can't see that stupid scenarion either. If she wins the second set to setup a third, the fix is in.

I thought about that as well, the only thing I could think of was they did not want to compete with the UFC bouts tonight. The UFC is hot and I think it is a smart move not to battle it out with them.

I think the idea is to demonstrated exactly what the finals are going to be like on the REAL tour events, not to show whether LJJ can beat Mike... which by the way is about as likely as snow in August in Miami.

I don't care if Mike does "let up" and let it go to three sets. I think the important thing here is to give the spectators and the eventual TV audience a taste of what the IPT format is going to be like. Just wish I was one of the 600 there watching it, because I have a funny feeling it might be the first move in an evolution of Cue Sports.

Later,
Bob
