Will £80 tickets get me on the lower tier ? And is there a 10% surcharge ?

Football may delay kick off for the climax of 'who shot Phil' in Eastenders, but I don't think boxing will delay fights for the Champions league.

anyone know if it will be worth buying the £60 quid tickets theres a group of us going and budgets arent great bearing in mind we drink like fish and will be travelling up and staying in london, i maybe able to talk people into parting with £80 but its unlikely. I paid that type of price for haye v ruiz and the seats were bloody brilliant but that was the MEN. If not ill have a BBQ and bang the fight on at home.

Booked a hotel for 2 nights and train from Newcastle for £152 on a super saver deal the travel agents Thomsons had on.

I'll go for whatever tickets are the lower tier.

Sometimes I think your better in the cheap seats than the slightly more expensive ones, totally depends on the venue though. I cant speak for the O2 but sometimes you pay an extra 20 or 30 quid and end up at the very back of the floor seats and can hardly see a thing from ground level.

The £80 tickets (which will be near enough £90 after fees) will be good lower tier seats. I had them for DeGale-Groves and they were very good.

There is also something called VIP Gold which is £1,000.
I'd want fellatio off Froch's bird with Eddie Hearn mopping my brow for that sort of money!

I got 3 x £40 tickets through matchroom's website for the next prize fighter and didn't pay the usual 10% surcharge ! Is that because it was direct from matchroom or because it's prize fighter ? I'm in two minds whether or not to get £60 or £80 tickets for froch v Kessler ! Just want to be in the lower tier. :roll:

BN has just posted on Twitter that it is Box Office, for those not going. Easily worth the money imo, without even seeing the undercard.

Looking at the plan the £100 tickets are going to be decent lower tier, the £80 ones are lower tier but right at the back at either end of the arena.

I was going to get some £80's but they didn't have three together, so I had to got for £100's instead and got three in Section 115. Looks like they are shifting very fast!!!

I genuinely find it hard to believe that they have sold this out virtually in under an hour!

Not being able to buy contiguous seats is almost certainly a software issue rather than a ticket unavailability issue. Highlight the problem and wait until they've got it sorted. if you want a decent night out with your friends, panic buying seats dotted around the venue isn't the way to do it. Calm down.

It must be a software issue I agree and I certainly wouldn't be buying tickets in a different part of the arena from my mate. I'm gonna try later on when it may have calmed down a bit even though I risk not getting one at all then.
