Have Hayemaker secured an allocation for the Brits? Adam Booth was on Sky earlier talking of the thousands of Brits who would be travelling so he is obviously aware of the demand. Is there a time and place the tickets go on sale? I know there will be re-sellers about but would like some at face value. Not to hopeful given Hayemakers history with looking after the fans.They announced the undercard of Haye-Harrison after it had sold out leaving boxers on the bill with no tickets at all.

anyone got any ideas when the tickets are being released?

hamburg a great place for night out!

Shirow is on the case. He managed to sort out blocks last time or the 2009 version.

Tickets then were 55 to 625

The only cert is that those who buy will get their arse smacked in service fees

Great news, shall keep a keen eye on developments.

Gutted, I found a flight from Gatwick on the 2.7.2011 early this morning for £101, by the time I got to the end of booking it, it has more than trebled to £332, so I've given it a miss.I've been priced out by the airlines.Bums.

Dirks going on the QE2. Travel in style.

This did my head in yesterday mate. Really feel for you. I wasn't prepared to go on Thursday or Saturday and nor was I prepared to come back on Monday - so it was immediately obvious there was going to be a premium to pay. Well done to all those who got in really early but for the majority, it became a rip off.

I'm having to come back via Copenhagen otherwise it would have cost even more than it has done already.

It's a nice train journey up to Copenhagen from Hamburg, which includes a boat, and the stor belt bridge (offering spectacular views), so that should make it more bearable.I am quite tempted to do that myself, but with a child on the way, I am not sure I can justify it this time. Hamburg is a cracking city, so whoever does go from here should have a top time.

If you're booking a package with him, I think he'll do the tickets face value.

I'm a little busy right now but i have flights on hold and i'm getting news on the tickets shortly. I'll report back with all the details.

Were you going on your Jack or with others? If you can get a car full, fly to Berlin and hire a car. It's only a two hour drive if you put your toe down and not a bad little run. Berlin flights will still be cheap. Alternatively, jump on the train at Berlin.

Me and a couple of pals.That's a great idea.Will look into this. Cheers.

Im not.I have booked it myself.

Anybody got some info re the best outlet to get tickets in the UK? Thanks guys

I realise at this point it is just pure speculation and we haven't had a heavyweight title fight this big for at least 8 years since Lewis retired, but does anyone wanna hazard a guess at the prices for this one?

Just ball park figures for upper tier, floor seats, ringside?

I have just bought 2 tkts upper tier corner block £150 each plus £34 booking fee each, we r going to fly or drive, Does anyone know what accomaodation is like in Hamburg??? is it expensive??

Are they on sale now? Whereabouts?

From where? £34 booking fee is extortionate.It is usually 10%

After a quick search,they are not even on sale yet,officially at least.Seatwave and viagogo would have loads if they were,there is money to be made on these.£184 for an upper tier corner block would be way,way overpriced too.

Yes, that's awful value for the tickets in the Upper Tier corner block where you'd hardly be able to see anything. I'm hoping to get lower tier square on to the ring as close to the front as possible. I'd hope the proper price would be not much more than £250 for these.

Last time those kind of tickets ( just off centre ) were £50 ish. things have changed so will prob be a little more expensive. Looking like I'll have to pass on the fight unfortunately this time!

I'll be extremely happy if that is the case here but I'd guess they'd put up their prices for this one. That said, fights are cheaper in Germany than in the UK so tickets may be better value than we think.
