You need fast lenses at most fight nights - the lighting will be between poor and horrendous :bang:
I know you are taking a flash with you - just make sure it's OK by the organisers that you use it. From my experience at least in boxing one is not allowed to use flash (national events).

For myself - I do most fights with 24-70 f2.8
With a some shots with 70-200 f2.8

Deffo a 2.8 lens, and the reach dependent on where you're standing :O)
