NYC Bar that doesn't charge you to watch a fight

I'd like to watch the Pacquiao- Bradley fight this saturday, but my friends and I don't want to spend 20-30 bucks each to do so. Anyone know of a bar in the nyc area that doesn't charge you to watch fights? I definitely will drink and eat while I'm there.

Most Classy, Romantic Restaurant

I need some help here. I'm looking for a place to take my girlfriend before I pop the big question!
I'm looking for suggestions for restaurants with a very classy and romantic feel. She loves classic anything.

I'm trying to find a place that Elizabeth Taylor or Grace Kelly would go. Thanks!

Best Steak House in NYC?

Hambone, I tried the pork shank at Keene's, and I wasn't that impressed, buddy. I'm sorry, but I just don't think it's in the same league as a place like Wolfgangs.

I will say that I'm not a huge lamb eater, so that may have something to do with it.

Most Impressive Restaurant in Manhattan?

it's the only restaurant that has an appetizer that emits smoke and comes with a samurai sword.

A classy choice for refined tastes.

Um, it's obviously Ninja New York. They're the only ones to have an entire "ninja castle" as a dining room... come on people.

Gramercy Tavern or Gotham?

Gramercy! I've lived in the city for 7 years, and it certainly stands out as one of the best I've had. Get the tasting menu, they just keep bringing new things.

On the contrary, I was very unimpressed with Gotham. I remember small portions and being very underwhelmed with the taste given its fame. It was a head-scratcher.

Alas, I was just at Keens but failed to order the mutton chop. The fillet I got did not blow me away, and I think the numerous pipes on the ceiling look a little bit to macabre, a little too much like bones.

Did anyone try center cut on the upper west side while it was still around? I tried both center cut and Smith & Wolensky's during the same restaurant week and Center Cut annihilated S & W. Everything about Center Cut was great, the steak the sides the homemade cookies they give you to take home...even the biscuits were amazing.

too bad its gone now.

I tried sparks a while back and wasn't that impressed.
