Saturday plans? Let us guess—Mayweather versus Pacquiao. The most anticipated moment of the decade; the highest negotiated payday in boxing history; the fight of all fights is about to go down, and you will be glued to the television this weekend, ready for the action.

For those of you who don’t know, Saturday marks the day of a soon-to-be historic moment between two of the greatest fighters in the world: Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao. Coined the “fight of the century,” these world champion boxers have toyed around with the idea of fighting one another for years. Finally, one will be named the greatest fighter of our decade at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

Unless you were one of the lucky ones to snag a pair of $3,000 tickets (at minimum) that sold out in less than two minutes, then you have two other options: buy the fight on Pay-Per-View for $100 or join your fellow New Yorkers in the fighting festivities occurring all around the city. Below, we’ve put together a list of various bars where you can view the fight, eat some pub grub, and enjoy an open-bar option (that’ll be difficult to refuse).

Who do you think will reign as champion? The general consensus in the office is Pacquiao for-the-win.
