Whitstable (and in particular Tankerton) are rather nice though.lillywhite14 wrote:I cannot ave Chatham slagged off in such a way! Tom Dallas best boxer from the towns? It's actually Johnny Armour. St Mary's produced plenty of champions for such a tiny club. I know plenty of blokes from bigger, more famous clubs in London & South East and they always said the same thing when having to face a St Mary's fighter...'always knew you were in for a tough night'
The rest? Ok, that's a fair assumption! Petty crime haven, full of scumbags.
Although the Irish in the surrounding 'countryside' have made quite a name for themselves of late. I was in Manchester two weeks ago and was being asked if I knew them.

Nobody will have egg on their face. At the worst, they'll get their money back on Gumtree without fees. Most sellers will be experienced touts who've know how to take a loss on the chin, let alone breaking even. Even if they just do AJ fights, they're still way, way up over the last twelve months.mimmy123 wrote:Eventim have sold out all cheap tickets and only the odd middle priced ones left.

Stubbhub have 1333 for sale and again the lower priced ones are dropping slowly. Are you touts going to be stuck with tickets or going to have egg on your face when you have to sell at ticket cost.
Re: Joshua-Molina card has already sold 15,000 tickets
I don't think there is any danger of this event not being sold out, and it'll probably still do enough buys to be financially worth it. I suspect that it'll still hit 150k buys. Hearn and Matchroom will milk the crap out of the Whyte and Chisora animosity to help more people press that red button.
I personally don't blame him, his job is to make his company and his fighters money. A few die hards have a cry. So what? Won't affect his revenue stream. The casuals will make sure of that.
I won't buy that PPV or a ticket on the night, but that's my choice. Everyone else will make theirs too. I just hope (optimistically admittedly) that 2017 starts to bring the fights we all are desperate to see.

Stubhub don't sell tickets. Full stop. People buy the tickets, put them on there and get what they can for them. It's large scale touting, but Hearn isn't involved in the actually selling of tickets. The shows are sponsored by StubHub, big deals. They've also been sponsored by We Buy Any House, so Hearn must be buying houses and selling them higher.
Pretty sure that select committees are being formed to look at the practice of these sites and their relationships with promoters, football clubs, venues etc
Promoter Ian McAndrew, at Wildlife Entertainment, told the committee some tickets end up on resale sites without fans ever having the chance to buy them at face value, because artists and managers occasionally pass tickets to resellers for a cut of the profit.

That doesn't prove in any way, shape or form that Eddie Hearn makes monies flipping tickets on Stubhub.freddydoesdallas wrote:From the select committee today:keithmoonhangover wrote:Stubhub don't sell the tickets.

The main issue that is causing problems is bots buying all the tickets before anyone gets a chance.

Re: Joshua-Molina card has already sold 15,000 tickets
Imo Eddie and matchroom should not be in bed with them what's so ever, it is a platform to sell on over priced tickets, the face value tickets are a piss in the ocean , stubhub isn't used for that, it's used to buy a ticket for the perpose of shifting it on way above face. Now, don't get me wrong you have to be a total spunk trumpet to pay double for this next AJ fight granted but still, why advertise it all over the fornicating ring.keithmoonhangover wrote:That doesn't prove in any way, shape or form that Eddie Hearn makes monies flipping tickets on Stubhub.freddydoesdallas wrote:From the select committee today:keithmoonhangover wrote:

If you notice during AJs next fight, right next to his great big cock on his trunks it says STUBHUB
Re: Joshua-Molina card has already sold 15,000 tickets
Completely agree. Irrespective of if Eddie and co. are picking up a cut of StubHub tickets or not, it promotes touting and will attract a tonne of criticism. Tickets shouldn't be sold on, end of discussion. Just leaves a bad taste in the mouth for everyone.chrisnew86 wrote:Imo Eddie and matchroom should not be in bed with them what's so ever, it is a platform to sell on over priced tickets, the face value tickets are a piss in the ocean , stubhub isn't used for that, it's used to buy a ticket for the perpose of shifting it on way above face.

On Stubhub tickets are falling now quite fast. Those touts who bought them are still hold of them and now the cheap ones are around £84. They will come lower by December.

It was getting not worth it selling on the resale sites (due to the cut they take from both buyer and selling) so went through gumtree still turned a bit of a profit (about £20 per ticket) but the last couple of AJ shows was over double that.

You'll get in for below face value if you buy outside on the night.
Re: Joshua-Molina card has already sold 15,000 tickets
last 2 I got left happy to sell to anyone on here for what I paid (made a bit profit on the others)
2 tickets block 201 (upper tier but not the cheap upper tiers these are £60 face value and a better view) row H
£145 the pair (slightly less than I paid with the fees etc) and I'll throw in me paying for recorded delivery (or can meet in around Wolverhampton/Birmingham area) Tickets are now in hand and ready to send.

Re: Joshua-Molina card has already sold 15,000 tickets
The only time I've resold tickets was for Froch-Groves 2. It was getting nearer to the event and I started to get a little nervy as I wasn't getting my asking price. Anyway eventually this woman contacts me offering a little below my asking price. She said they were for her husbands birthday. Anyway just after she had offered me and I agreed- I got offered an absolute packet off a couple of desperate people.
I could have made some serious profit but I didn't wanna be a pudendum and ruin somebody's birthday by pulling out at the last minute. Probably a bit muggy but I wouldnt have felt pleased with myself if I had sold them on for more money to someone else.

Anyone who sells a ticket for more than face value is a scumbag in my book.
