In 1990 I saw Michael Watson fight Mike McCallum and Lennox Lewis was also on the bill . The atmosphere was tremendous.Every seat has a perfect view of the ring . The noise seems to be trapped in the arena . The building looks as if it was actually built for boxing . By far the best venue for boxing in the UK .

There is plenty venues better than the York Hall - architecturally anyway. IMO.
