I went to the Columbus events. It was amazing. We didn't have floor seats but we did have lower bowl and the seats had a perfect view. Seeing the action in person will only make you like the sport more. The noise level is through the roof at big moments like seeing hamill ko Munoz with a head kick. In Columbus there was also so many hot women it was unbelievable. Make sure to get there in time for the pre fights they show on Facebook as the riddle fight should be worth the price of admission if he fights like his usual self.

Also Went to the Columbus events, When Hamill came out to Hang on Sloopy , the crowd went Nuts could hear my Bro-inlaw 3 seats down, It was cool seeing some of the Fighters just out walking around out by the vendors and stuff

I have been to every Ohio ufc event. The 3 in Columbus and the Cincinnati.

There is nothing like a UFC event better than NFL NBA MLB etc.

Couture vs Sylvia was amazing and it was the loudest I have ever heard an arena.

(edit, stupid cell phone auto corrected Sylvia to Silva, thanks TCS)

There is no doubt. I have been to many different professional sporting events Ohio State Football games etc and nothing compares to a UFC event.

I would advise going to as many fan events before hand like the weigh ins, any signings, etc.

Dude...Evan Dunham looked beastly! Great fight. Bailey has a pretty good chin too. I plan on seeing him a few more times.

Feel so bad for Shields, loses his father then gets stopped for the first time, Ellenberger is a beast though.

Shields is a class act and has one of the best resumes in MMA, went out and fought with a heavy heart and competed, never looked into it though. I think he needs to move back to 185 and make a run there.
