The Mandalay Bay Events Center blossomed into existence with the construction of the billion dollar Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in 1999 following the demolition of the Hacienda. The 44-story, tri-winged structure proudly stands as one of the hotel goliaths on the Las Vegas Strip. Like moths to a flame, aficionados of fun are drawn in to a city that's quite literally on life support, what with around 100 million gallons of water being pumped into the Sin City's veins every day primarily from Lake Mead, that end up in private pools, tropical landscaping projects, dancing fountains for the visitors' amusement and sinking pirate ships. However, the entire city keeps on persisting like a determined hedonist, keeping up business as usual, with the McCarran International Airport serving as a virtual orifice for entertainment seekers from all across the world to pour in as a multitude of just under 40 million annually in the last couple of years.  

 
The cavernous interior of the Mandalay Bay Events Center offers unobstructed sight lines to some 12,000 spectators. Such views especially heighten the thrill in the air generated by events such as the mixed martial arts clashes constituting the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) matches as well as boxing bouts ala Light Welterweight Undisputed Championship encounter of Amir Khan vs. Zab Judah.
