First Professional Sporting Event to Accept Bitcoin

The hottest and sexiest boxing show in the country returns to the legendary Florentine Gardens Hollywood on Thursday, February 6th and boxing fans will now have the option of purchasing their tickets with Bitcoin at 20% off regular prices! To welcome this increasingly popular community of consumers, Los Angeles boxing fans and cyber currency enthusiasts who purchase tickets online with Bitcoin will also receive an official Fight Poster autographed by many of the boxers headlining the show.

“We have always catered to a younger and more hip and trendy crowd than traditional boxing shows in the country. Some of these fans have asked us about Bitcoin in the past but we didn’t really think or know much of it,” commented Steve Bash of Art of Boxing/Bash Boxing.

“With digital currency becoming more main stream and with major merchants now accepting Bitcoin, we wanted to test the waters to kick off the 2014 boxing season in Hollywood and to be the first professional boxing show to accept this currency.”
