Well, it's sold out, which will pay for my Poland excursion. Cheers AJ, I always liked you.

Im always confused when promoters price tickets in a way where they sell out in an hour.. only to be scalped for 5x the price. Why don’t the promoters up there price a bit… why sell a ticket for 40 quid if it’s worth 100.. (that’s an unpopular option obviously)

O2 and reasonable ticket prices this gate will be embaracing for AJ, but if the tickets were considerably more it probably would of still sold out…

Also put names on tickets for fornicate sake why let the scalpers win (no hate to scalpers… play the game, but promoters have tools avoid it)

Still seems to be tickets available. Surprising considering there’s still a 5 minute wait to get onto the ticket selection part.

Across AXS and Stagefront there are about 100-200 left I think. Possibly more to add back in depending on what they’ve done with the undercard fighters.

It's crazy to see how far they've fallen. This would have sold out in seconds before. Literally. You have to blame the DAZN move.

He suggested that Fury was a time waster and was not serious about fighting Uysk.

Also, I thought you said this fight was struggling to sell. They just said it has sold out already.

He's still on about him now.... "Fury went 12 with Wallin, nobody said a thing, I went 12 with Franklin".
Yes, it sold out, a lot slower than before.

I genuinely believe Hearn took the last few off sale seconds before the presser so he could announce sold out. Either that or there was a rush for the hard to shift ones in the last three minutes.

I don’t think they helped themselves with how the queue was done. Mustn’t have allowed many people on the site at any one time but even still you’d have thought it wouldn’t take as long to sell out.

DAZN will have a big impact, price will, generally more apathy towards AJ since the losses/reaction to the second Usyk defeat and surprisingly his BLM speech too would have had an impact. I know a couple of guys that really went off him for that.

It was bound to sell out, I think they could have shifted 40/50 thousand easily. PPV ain't doing a million though, not at 27 quid.

Dribble said it hadn't sold out? Is Dribble just full of dribble?

Dillian Whyte talks rematch with Anthony Joshua, says he’s looking forward to avenging his defeat



Whyte on finally getting a rematch with Joshua
“This fight is only happening now because of two reasons. One, because of greed. And two, because they already got the Wilder fight guaranteed win, lose or draw anyway....(AJ’s) not taking no risk, he’s guaranteed the fight already.

“And because of greed — I don’t even know why the fight’s PPV, it should be a normal fight for the normal fan so more DAZN subscribers enjoy the fight. It shouldn’t be a PPV fight.”

On why it took this long to finalize the fight
“Just these guys being greedy and just taking long to get the fight made. And obviously I think they was trying to catch me off guard, and hopefully I wasn’t training and only give me four or five weeks notice. But it’s business, you know what I mean.”

On what he’s unhappy with in his contract with Joshua
“I’m not getting paid my value in this fight, what I bring, but sometimes it’s about the opportunity. I’m not someone who’s greedy and tries to starve the fans...it’s a big fight, a big opportunity. I know I’m getting undersold but, you know what, I want the opportunity and I want a chance to avenge my defeat. And also, I want to beat AJ up.”

What a dick..

Now he's saying it's all about the opportunity.

He was offered decent money back in 2021 for a Wembley stadium fight, that would have been for 3 world titles too.
