If anyone is found to be involved in violence, whether you are an event attendee or a patron, you will be banned for life and unable to attend any events at all our venues.
Thursday’s press conference for the title fight between Lopez and Stevenson turned violent, with the fighters on stage hurling insults at each other’s family members and others shouting in the crowd.

The warning comes ahead of a busy weekend for the arena. Organizers said the boxing event was sold out and the Los Angeles Lakers will visit the Knicks on Sunday for a nationally televised game that could be LeBron James’ last game on the court.
