Mayweather vs. Pacquiao - Las Vegas May 2nd 6pm (PST)
A historic boxing match is on the horizon and you’ve just got to find a spot to watch it. The Mayweather vs. Pacquiao match this Saturday is going to be a biggie; with a $100 price-tag to watch at home perhaps you’d prefer watching it at a bar with a few friends and a few beers. While entry fees to these downtown bars aren’t cheap, you’ll have the perk of being surrounded by fellow adrenaline-pumped San Diegans. So if your preferred viewing destination is downtown, here are five spots that will be showing the fight you’re dying to see.
Barleymash
Barleymash has 35 flatscreens and a gigantic space to host you and your friends this Saturday.

Entry to the Gaslamp bar will be available on a first-come, first-serve basis for $50 per person. Doors open at 5pm, so you’ll have to get there early to grab your seat.
