    Looking at some of the ticket prices on seatwave et al, some of the prices are already slipping and I see price drops already as sellers compete to turn a quick profit. Let them sweat people! Don't buy, I imagine you can get a great deal on tickets if you wait right near the date.

    But that will still be crappy seats going for a premium? If so forget that. Rather get the PPV, I got my big screen projector, get some mates round and have a good old fashioned fight night.

    People who aren't poor and can afford it, obviously.

    Prices will continue to drop, wait and see if another 20k tickets are sold, price will drop dramatically. Buy you time, these will all be sold and will be sold for a lot less than at present.

    Be warned though, for something this big, scammers are out in force, MANY Don't have the tickets they claim.

    So please be careful buying from these crowds. Fake websites etc get created purely to scam you

    Surely the additioanl 20,000 tickets will be the £30-£40 bracket in the upper tier and the back rows at that? I can't imagine that they would have sold those back rows as part of the first 60,000 and leaving seats in more attractive places unsold without knowing for sure that they'll be granted the increased capacity.

    extra 20k regardless of location will satisfy some of the demand and reduce what the 3rd parties can charge .

    And if the extra 20k are **** seats they may not all sell and this further reduces what these sites can ask for ; if venue don't sell out , price have to drop

    Ive gone for the 80 quid tickets, once it gets past 100 I start to think im getting taken.

    Just hope the weather is good, went to the Hatton fight in Manchester when he fought that Mexican and Paulie had his hair cut. That was great.

    Glad I didnt go to Haye Chisora , pissed it down all night!!

    No, people with enough money that they aren't going to worry about spending it.

    There's nothing wrong with you being close to the bread line. Just don't be jealous of those of us who aren't.
