The much-anticipated heavyweight clash is set to go ahead on April 29 and the third and final round of sales were quickly snapped up on Wednesday.

An extra 10,000 tickets were made available after Eddie Hearn and Matchroom convinced London mayor Sadiq Khan to increased capacity at Wembley after demand for the fight went through the roof.

The £80 tickets sold out in just ten minutes with fight fans moving quickly to ensure they would not be denied a third time.

The two fighters met in New York on Tuesday for a special press conference state side as Klitschko promised fireworks in Wembley.

Thinking of going on the day and trying to scalp one but I do live 300 miles away so a bit of a trek. Anyone have experience of this on a big show?

I got AJ Whyte, Frampton Quigg and Brook Golovkin tickets for face value or lower on fight week. May end up being different for Wembley but I can't see that being the case

Yes, hold your nerve. Don't start trying to early.

Don't ask for a ticket. Wait to be approached by someone then create a fake demand by pretending to call a mate to say you've got the ticket at X price
