Anyone here going? I'm going to get tickets when they go on sale later today. Should be a cracker and prices seem very reasonable also when compared with the prices I've paid for some (much inferior) shows. Hope the undercard is decent also.

Tickets go on sale at 2pm i think, and yep i'm hoping to go.

Should be a proper humdinger

Me and the boy wilko will be going - proper mash up big style....

Just bought 2 tickets £110 each for block 15 which is the best tiered block. Not a fan of watching at floor level so these should be good.

eff me , just ordered 2 of the £40 tickets and apparantly according to the woman on the phone theyve been going like hotcakes and was the only 2 tickets left in the block , only been on sale 45 mins

I thought this would happen and that's why I ordered bang on 2pm. I was only able to get row Q in block 15 though so god knows how the other rows were filled up before I bought.

I reckon they must have kept hold of some for the undercard fighters but i wouldnt want to hang around to find out .

I think they have also reserved the first few rows as part of some of the hospitality packages they are offering. Should be a great view regardless. Am glad the fight is in the Arena rather than in a football stadium.

in fact i can confirm that is the case , just had contact from Leigh Wood selling tickets so i suppose thats one we know is on undercard

yeah block 5 & 15 sold out pretty quickly. went for floor seating as I hate being up in ye gods and outer ringside were too expensive this time (nearly twice what they were for the Pascal fight).

I was tempted by the £219 package where you get 5 free drinks and an Indian buffet as well as access to a private bar but would rather spend the extra hundred quid on going out before/after the fight.

2500 sold in 1st hour, pretty good going.

I'd imagine this will be sold out by the end of the week.

Hearn is saying they will sell out today but that sounds very optimistic.

what did you pay for floor ? £60

Got floor for £30 for pascal fight

Thought about going for floor but Tyson fury vs Nevan Pajkic show ruined floor seating for me as everyone kept standing .

weekend i reckon , i do believe the ones from the arena will go today but the undercard fighters will be selling theres from tonight onwards , people will rush to buy them though when they realise they cant get from arena .

Poor old Kamikaaze who posts on here went on holiday a couple of days ago and was hoping to get them when he returns , think hes gonna miss out .

Any news on the undercard?

Unlikely but I guess a lot of people may buy tonight after they get in from work. Should be a cracking atmosphere. Really hope Bute doesn't pull out as this all seems almost too good to be true at the moment!

No mate, £150.

I got outer ringside for Pascal last time for £100 but can't find my ticket to confirm what I paid. I thought £200 for the same seat was a bit of a piss-take, given it's not really "ringside" i.e. there's about five rows in front of you and when everyone jumps up you can't see anything anyway.

Block 15 and 5 were selling for £100 this time round but they were just about sold out and only a couple left and I needed 4 together.

£150 , Bloody hell that is a price increase , i think i just got lucky though for Pascal fight , was around 5 rows away from ringside , so basically sounds like a bargain compared to this time

yeah, it's a bit of a joke really. don't get me wrong, the seats for pascal were great but they're not worth £200 this time round, no way. Chuck in booking fee and all that and it gets stupid.

Maybe I'm just used to being ripped off by London prices but I think the prices for a fight of this magnitude are pretty reasonable. I've been to David Haye fights which have been twice as expensive so was pleasantly surprised.

Block 5 and 15 are immense views, much much better than the floor views.

However it is only a small-ish arena so pretty much anywhere is a very good view in there, compared to somewhere like say, MEN Arena which is twice the size and a bit more I think. I think I'm gona cheap out and go for the £60 tickets.

That's why I went for block 15 rather than the floor seats. I sat outer ringside when Froch fought Rybacki (was meant to be Inkin but he pulled out) and while it was cool being close to the ring and meeting some boxers and stuff the view was at times a bit restricted as you had to crane your neck upwards, avoid the people standing up etc. Much better to be square on to the ring.
