AXS said yesterday these are the tickets going on sale:
£40 + £5.50 booking fee
£60 + £7.50 bf
£80 + £9.50 bf
£100 + £11.25 bf
£150 + £16 bf
£200 + £21 bf
£300 + £28 bf
£500 + £36 bf
these booking fees make me sick.

I think I'm done with live boxing, too expensive these days and tickets end up going to people who just make a killing off them.

I know mate is an absolute joke! if it was anyone else other than Golovkin coming over I wouldn't be interested in going.

I'll watch him on the TV - better view, fewer tossers to deal with, no expensive drinks. If it was a better fight I'd be into it, but it could well be over inside 4.

I get that. already said I'd never attend another Joshua fight for the pure arseholes the geezer attracts to a show. Just to see GGG in the flesh in a fight is worth it for me though.

Exactly my words when I just looked at that response. Absolute robbery.

Why are the booking fees different for each ticket? It's only the same product, manpower, etc used on each one.

Waste of time.

Got in and could have taken split seats but cant be arsed with that.

Nothing together in any price bracket it would seems.

Not that fussed though, will get in all this panic is for nothing 99% of the time. There is always a ticket

Just to let everyone know the Stubhub fix is in. I just waited in queue online for 25 minutes after logging in the moment the sale started to get access to the 48 hour early priority sale and the best available were last row corner lower tier tickets and no more than 2 together.

£200 each before booking fee. I got kicked off when i didn't accept them.

They'll probably hold another couple of hundred tickets back for the general sale on Friday then announce the tickets sold out in 2 minutes.

For once with these things I seem to have got lucky. Used a mates o2 priority thingy, went for £100s sold out, looked at £40's sold out, tried £80's and managed to get 4. Personally couldn't afford anything more than a ton, and that was the same with all of the group. I've had the confirmation through and have opted for print at home etc but not yet had that through.

Well somebody did OK. I'm in but £200 each is a lot to lay out and I can't see any of my friends coming up for it either. We're not made of fornicating money, and actually... Now it's crashed. Can't seem to even click on anything to look at the seats.

Don't have fight pass or whatever it is so I guess it will be the general sale on Friday, eh.

Those booking fees should be investigated - there is absolutely no reason for them to increase in relation to the ticket price.

Mate all joking aside, I wouldn't even bother on Friday. Spend your time doing something that makes you happy :TU: You wont get a ticket in the general sale

Just wait, these ticket sales are a stitch up anyway!

Frampton Quigg, the AJ fights its always the same. Come fight week under card fighters have returned some or what ever and you will pick up a few easy.

For AJs last knock over there were tickets in almost every price bracket right up to fight night. Frampton Quigg the same, almost every price bracket not to mention the under card fighters them selves . Its rigged like this so loads head over to " the official ticket partner of Matchroom and AJ " and get mugged off while they are in a panic to get tickets.
Just play the long game and you will get sorted

Haskins v Hall is on the undercard too now, so may be worth seeking out tickets from them if possible.

because of this I am very lucky and will be ringside.

I know I'm bias but I'm really happy for Stuey and I personally think its a great addition to the card...I went to the last fight he had with haskins in Bristol and despite what Nick will come on and say, I though Haskins beat Stu.....he's a completely different fighter now though and I hope that Stuey wins it.

I feel lucky and privileged to be there for Stuey and also to see probably the best fighter I will see in my generation fight live (golovkin of course)

Hope everyone gets the tickets they want and enjoys the night

see you there.

Got some via the venue presale thankfully. Crap seats though, back row of the upper tier, but looking forward to it.
