Yes

They've been popping up and going every five minutes. It's sold out. You might get one ticket now and again.

Literally no chance. We got £210.

I wont go to £210. The £67 was my limit.

Well, I've got Christmas to sort, then I'm off to Auschwitz in January, all sober, so I'm going to get smashed in Manchester. 15 wreckheads so far booked on.

It will be a great night, a pure throw back to the Eubank Sr years. Could be the fight of 2018.

Definitely an early contender

They always have returns from fighters, orders getting cancelled .

In a few days there will be some for sure

If you're on 24 hours a day, you might get lucky. I've been doing this a long time. This is as sold out as any I've seen. No fighters have tickets! No fighters even know they're fighting yet!

Yeah i hear you mate.

So have i, 99% of the time there is always a massive rush like this morning but then a week or so later i have logged on just to have a nose and there are blocks of tickets dotted about.

Oh well, who cares as long as were sorted

mickey1975 wrote: ↑28 Nov 2017, 05:38 Well, who said it wouldn't sell? Quickest I've ever seen.
Ps Eventim are sh!t.

I cant get a £40 or £60 ticket for love nor money

Literally no chance. We got £210.

I managed to get 4 of the cheap seats no problem this morning,even had to register first at 9am before purchasing them.

I was on at 10am and was only a few tickets left then, all inidividual. Doesnt seem to be too many on stub hub, so if they're not selling straight to stub hub, there was a lot more demand than I was expecting. Gutted

What it needs is a scheme were you pay say £30 a year and get a priority sale the day before

Groves is far more experienced at fighting at the highest level. Added to that, Groves is a naturally bigger guy and has a wicked jab.
I think that this is a Groves points victory... But it could be controversial.

just had another look.. there are just 6 random tickets priced £200 ish

and about 30 on the floor at £400 ish

Nah, I expected it to be a sellout.
The lesson here for Promoters is that fans know a good fight when they see it regardless of how the fight is made.

I didn't expect them to go that quick I'll be honest. Was in a meeting 8-11 and thought I'd have no problem getting reasonably priced tickets. Oh well

London Press Conference







Said Eubank Jr.: “I’ve had many big fights but this is probably the biggest in terms of profile and the tournament and the hype. But at the end of the day I always rise to the occasion. The bigger the fight the better I perform.”

“George seems to be hung up on what I’ll do. He needs to worry about himself. Thinking about me isn’t going to get him anywhere. I’m a man of my word and George, you will not see the end of the twelfth round.

“He doesn’t have the speed, his defence is poor and his stamina is average at best. The fact that he’s lacking in those things means he won’t be able to compete with me. I’m not a stepping stone. I’m Mount Everest and you’re not going to climb me.”

I've posted links to the Presser here - http://boxrec.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=216981

1st Presser.

1-0 to Eubank Jr.

I'm looking forward to this one. Should be a good fight.

Can't wait for this.

Both fighters are fun to watch. It's a close one to call.

Going to go with Groves by round 8 or 9. I think he'll work the body.

Yea groves would be wise to work the body

Eubank jnr hasn't dealt with anyone like groves yet

Really hoping groves does it, he is capable of the win

What the second fight? Froch was on his A game an clearly better than Groves in every department

No he wasn’t. The second fight was close until Froch closed the show

agree. bizarre comment from the nutty one. had gg up by 1.

The scorecards were 68-65 | 66-67 | 66-67 so it was close.

I dunno. Groves "Are you going to sing" was the best of the event

Aye, that was the only bit I actually laughed at. I quite enjoyed the presser and watched all of it, I normally don't do that.
