Got a question. I'm at a loose end on Saturday and was looking at going to this fight. I've only been to the copperbox once and that was for the Handball at the olympics. So basically I have no idea what the views are like, there are still a few tickets going spare.
1. In the corners for £44 (Block 209)
2. The longer-side next to the corners for £55 (Block 114, 203, 204)
3. Section D for £77
4. Section B for £110
Ticketmaster seem to have a good seat chart:

Section B at £110 seems a bit pricey for me, the rest are doable. Which ones should I go for?
Cheers

Last time I went it was unreserved seating bar the floor ones. I brought the upper tickets we sat there for a bit and the view was pretty good but we then walked down to the floor seats to watch the bloke we'd gone to see on the undercard and ended up staying there for the rest of the card

Monroe was funny in that presser. Made Billy look a right spanner.

Read Oiky's prediction twice and have had a migraine since.

For me Monroe doesn't come across as confident, I think BJS has got to him

I don't think Billy has got to him psychologically, he's not an intimidating person. May think he's not as good as him though, so I kind of agree.

Those kids are being let down badly by whoever is dragging them up. If he wasn't told to do that, I'm a Dutchman and they wonder why everyone hates them,

I'm shocked of this oikish behaviour , Saunders must be such a great role model .

Absolutley shit security again at boxing. It seems like a nothing issue but that will go viral. Those security guards have just been shown up by a gang of gyspy kids.

I hope the WBO strips him if he wins after the fight and the board suspends him.
BJS is an utter disgrace to sport in general. He is a terrible champion. Just waiting for a video to go up with his number 1 fan Kugan Cassius later.

to be fair, i'm not sure Kugan really enjoys being around BJS he just has to for his job. Saunders is clearly a scumbag bully, I hope he comes through Saturday night and gets demolished by GGG or Canelo to unify the division...

BJS put him on that. He even had him do it to shelf stacker in a supermarket. It's pretty bad. My boys are rough, but wouldn't dream of that.

I'm pretty sure BJS has put his kid up to punching somebody in the nuts before in one of his "hilarious" pranking videos or something. This is the sort of thing that has made me hate him. Like that video of him trying to be funny with that bloke wearing a batman t shirt asking him if he thought when he grew up he could be barman (no billy, it's just a man who has a batman t shirt on) and the one where he rung the other gypsy fella to tell him he'd banged his wife.
I expect BJS Saunders to win but Monroe winning be better to me that seeing Broner get humiliated by Maidana.

Even the kids language was bad. He will have had zero rules. They'll find it funny. Fury gets stuck but he is so well mannered you wouldn't believe.

Disgusting parenting. Saunders is a classless twat. Hard not to root for his opponent.
