    I've heard that Planet Hollywood has done some good UFC stuff. A buddy of mine is a diehard UFC fan and goes there if he's in Vegas during a UFC event.

    Last time I was in Vegas it was almost impossible.

    all Station casinos show the fights on big screen for $10/person. Green Valley Ranch and Red Rock are the 2 exceptions, they charge $20/person. Get there at least an hour early to get your seats.

    Legasse Stadium shows em, but there is a minimum for food & drink, not sure what it is. I think one or maybe more than one of the PTs shows the ppv fights.

    Yeah Bday.. I been out there a handfull of times during UFC events and could not find ONE casino airing it. Some casinos have private partys that air it in ballrooms kinda like the Super Bowl parties they throw.

    Best bet is a local bar off the strip or even down town. Prob have a cover tho. The strip joints have UFC parties but expect to spend on ho's and bottle sevice. Good Luck

    Make your plays online and then go to Hooters. Hooters always has the fights for free.

    There's a pretty great pub inside the Monte Carlo with big TV's. They charge only like $30 to go in. I watched the Cruz vs Facer III card there and went 5-0 that night. =)

    If you go watch it at hooters, make sure you stay a block away at Americas Best Value Inn for 35 bucks a night. It's the best place to have food not delivered to you for the fear of them being robbed.

    Also, Planet Hollywood is good, but their Sportsbook is mildly annoying.

    Pro tip: if you try to tip the girls in their "pleasure Pit" (sluts dancing on the blackjack tables) they will definitely not be impressed.

    Yup, The Pub! Great bar to watch the fights! Wasn't crowded, either, as opposed to Legasse's Stadium. I'll never forget jumping out of my seat and going crazy when Tito Ortiz beat Ryan Bader and then started digging the grave... I hit my +400. It was a beautiful night. Also hit Cruz over Faber (slight favorite), Condit over Stun Gun at even odds, and Leben over Silva at a nice dog price.

    I'd go 4 times a year, if I could. Only go once or twice a year. =(

    I like to stay on the strip, too. So far, I've only stayed at Mandalay Bay, Excalibur, Monte Carlo, and Mirage, though I've been inside rooms of other hotels.

    I'm gonna stop at Bally's next time for Sterling's Brunch. Supposed to be the best buffet in Vegas, only on Sundays.

    I don't follow UFC but I know a lot of people go to palms or station properties to watch them on tv. Some of the local bars like PT's usually have them as well. I'd recommend Red Rock or Green Valley if they are showing it.

    Someone else already mentioned it, but the nicer Station casinos will show UFC fights on big screens for not much money. You can pay with comps, and since Stations is pretty loose with comps, it won't take much gambling to get in for "free."

    Also, there's a dive bar called Screwballs sort of near Green Valley that's supposed to show MMA PPVs for free. I've never been there so if you're really interested get their number off the internet and ask them.

    EDIT: While Stations is probably your best option, they can't accept UFC bets because they own UFC. So if you go to GVR or Red Rock to watch the fights make sure you get your bets down at another casino first.

    He didn't give me a ton of details, but said it was one of the only places he could find a seat and that the food/drink was reasonably priced compared to other places on the strip. I did a quick Google search and it seems like you'd be better off going to some bars/restaurants that aren't on the strip. One place that had a lot of good reviews was Hooters. Unlike a lot of other bars, there was no cover charge at the door. Only thing was a $9.00/hour table minimum in food/drink purchases. That's nothing though.

    Hope this helps.

    The stations casinos are the best. I have went to Palace Station a couple of times. $10 cover....did not have to get there early. They sell buckets of beer at a very reasonable price. Best value and bargain in a comfortable environment imao.

    M Resort has odds on MMA and sometimes broadcasts the fights, depending on what else is on.

    Cabo Wabo in Miracle Mile in Planet Hollywood was $15 or $20 for the Penn/Diaz fight. A lot of people but really fun atmospehere. Frank Trigg was there sitting next to us last time.

    I also think that Blondies in Miracle Mile is $$30 and all you can drink?
