Fight pass is currently suspended so its a moot point.

For future reference, Fight Pass gives you access 24 hours earlier than general sale at the same price points, but there is a (frustratingly) limited number of tickets available to fight pass members, and it is also four per customer.

However, for this fight, I expect anyone who wants to go will be able to go (unless they expect high quality, pitch seats). 80,000+ is a lot of tickets to sell.

Why's that do you know,to many people doing what I was going to ?
Yes, exactly that. Must be about 5% of members who actually joined for the streaming content.

You've just answered your own question.. I think even renewals are suspended.

Too many members, the fight pass thing has not really worked out imo folks just sign up to get priority tickets , too many members and not enough tickets..

It's not worth the hassle for matchroom ..

I'm surprised it is a case of it being too many members. Surely those that are prepared to line Eddie's pocket should get priority and surely there isn't enough members to fill arena's?

I've got Matchroom Fightpass and I've found it good from a ticket point of view. I've got tickets to every show I've attempted (10 or so in the last 2 years).

I thought it was good value for money when it first started (with the streamed shows, old fights and other content) but now the only value I get is the priority tickets.

If I ever fail to get some during the priority window then I'll be cancelling straight away.

I not so sure , were froch vs groves 2 tickets going at face value ? I have no idea

I believe the cheaper seats were still available the day before. But there are considerable (very) back row top tier seats that are going for £60 this time which seems extreme. Obviously bottom tier and pitch seats will end up on Stubhub unfortunately.
