Pop stars, actors and over paid footballers plus the entire Hatton and Khan families.

The cost of getting there, you are already in London!!!

Footballers, pop stars etc. won't be paying. Mug punters will pay over the odds to take up the slack. I was going, not bothering now, enough's enough, I've been priced out of football as well.

Disgusting prices. I went to a big fight in Vegas - flights, ticket, hotel for 5 nights - for half that. Rip off Britain indeed.

And the point about the 'transaction fee' is bang on. If a company employs administrators then why the fornicate should I pay an admin fee???

Precisely, the first row at ringside will be filled with the likes of Ramsey, Jamie Redknapp and Paul O'fekking Grady, all of whom will no doubt be coming gratis.

I would love to attend this fight, but 60 quid for a seat miles from the action is a bit too much for me I fear.

Oh, and they ALSO charge a processing fee. So ringside with these guys would be £1800.
