The_budweiser Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 On Saturday night the boxing fraternity made it’s annual pilgrimage to the British home of Horse Racing - Newmarket - for the Graham Earl, in association with the TKO Boxing Gym, promoted ‘Return of the Mac’ event. Before I get onto the actual fight report I have to say that this was my first visit to Newmarket and more importantly the Tattersalls Sales Rooms, which is an exceptional facility set in stunning grounds on the outskirts of the beautiful town. The sales room itself has to be the premier small hall venue in the country, the circular design makes the venue feel more like a Roman Amphitheater and provides the fans with an unrivaled viewing experience. I was mightily impressed as you may be able to tell. Another thing that impressed me were the changing rooms, now usually these are quite bland and cramped, and in some cases downright decrepit - please note York Hall. Not so at Tattersalls. Initially the house fighters were located in the red room - a huge hall like room with priceless oil paintings adorning every wall, leather Chesterfields sofas and a huge Chandelier as the centre piece. However Johnny Eames stated a preference for the smaller State rooms as used in previous years, which again featured priceless oil paintings etc, but also more importantly included both Sky TV and a close circuit TV link from the Sales Rooms,which enabled the fighters to be able to relax pre-battle by watching Chelsea versus Tottenham Hotspurs as well as all the action and drama as it unfolded from each bout.
