Georges St. Pierre might be off the card but you still don’t want to miss UFC 137 just because you didn’t get tickets to see it live at Mandalay Bay.

Many local restaurants and watering holes are having watch parties as B.J. Penn and Nick Diaz do battle to see who gets to take on the winner of the eventual fight between Carlos Condit and GSP. Other exciting fights feature hometown fighter Roy Nelson taking on Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovic and Cheick Kongo vs. Matt Mitrione. Find out where all the best drink specials are at local venues showing the fights.
