£800 for a ticket is insane. I know it's VIP but id want to be Froch or Groves's corner for that kind of money.

Very expensive. Matchroom are normally reasonable, these are Froch-Kessler prices for a poorer fight. Hoping a good undercard for those prices

My eyes are watering at those prices! I suppose after the Froch v Kessler sellout the fast one decided he would charge more.

I got 4x£100's

Whilst the £800's are somewhat crazy, starting the prices at £30 has to be applauded. The equivalent tickets for Haye v Fury are £40 and an utterly ridiculous £75 for The UFC a month earlier.

That's why nobody has bought them for the UFC!

Those are great seats, I was in the same block for Haye-Ruiz and close by for Hatton - Senchenko, and being in row E you'll be right near the front

£800 is way too much for Froch-Kessler. For that I'd expect at least 1 more world title fight on the bill, plus 2 or 3 British/Commonwealth/European title fights with well matched prospects on the undercard to bring it close to being acceptable.

It's free drinking water, and £5 for a beer.


Nah, just kidding. :lol:
