I see they still have tickets left at £80 even after the 11 minute sell out for Froch v Groves and they are near the back, is it a view worth going for or not?

They only have 220 left by the looks of it, how is the upper tier?

Looks like they have some decent lower tier tickets in Block 120 for £88, that's worth it in my book, I wouldn't go upper tier if you can afford to push for the extra or you'll end up just watching the screen.

I was right up the back of the top tier for Haye v Ruiz. Didn't have a problem at all with the view to be honest. I think people like to slag off views but yeah it wouldn't have been as good as lower tier but for me it was absolutely fine.

I'm 32 and got very good eyesight and I struggle to see what's happening in a boxing match from the upper tiers. You just don't see when the punches are genuinely landing or not, whereas if you get a decent lower tier view you can see a lot more clearly what's going on.

I've done the upper tier thing now, just a false economy for me so I don't bother anymore.

What's the point of the thread then if you were just waiting for the first person who said it's ok? Just buy the tickets if you're happy with it!!
