    I'm thinking of investing in one of these fight passes as I have been frustrated with missing out on tickets in the past 2 years, but before I was looking to know if anybody on here has a fight pass and what their experience of having one has been like? The Matchroom sports website doesn't have a lot in terms and conditions, is it one ticket per fight pass or more? Thanks

    i've been to every single live fight i've wanted to go to around europe, buying face value tickets...except for Matchroom shows! Eddies partnership with touts is despicable

    Don't bother it's the biggest waste of my ey going, you don't even get to pick your seat, I had it for a year and it was worthless

    Are you limited to buying one ticket per event with the fight pass? Thanks for the feedback

    no you can definitely buy more for some, but its a terrible service and doesn't even let you pick your seats only a price range. and there's nothing else for the money either, I was a member for a year, didn't use the ticket service once (got my tickets elsewhere) and everything else was massively underwhelming

    Eddie allows the touts to purchase up to 70% of the tickets prior to selling to Shyte Pass holders.

    In addition, the touts also annually purchase thousands of Shyte Passes so it is a waste of space - the cost added to the inflated ticket prices on Stubhub etc.

    How else do events "sell out in 90 seconds" ............

    The reality is probably half of them have already been slipped to stubhub etc.

    I've not been impressed when it comes with the big shows, the site constantly crashed when the window opened for fight tickets, so by the time I was able to get on the allocation had gone.
    You choose the number of tickets an amount your willing to pay and you get allocated your seats
    Other shows have been easy though if you think its worth it for the marquee fights ... don't waste your money!
