    I have to admit I find the best view is from my armchair with my slippers on, a can of lager in my hand and some artisan type meats and/or peanuts to graze on.

    I’m getting old.

    No mate, Senior is so deluded, he is trying to re-play his career through Jnr, you can hear him now..

    I want to give Jnr the very betht experienth you could imagine, by taking him on his world tour during thith competithon, he will not only benefit from it, he will feel the atmosthere of the crowd through the walls, he will feel my presenth in that thame room, the thame dretthing room I was in before I knocked out John Jarvith!

    I could have swore I saw him looking very confused near Victoria station asking people where the Gmex was!!!

    I'm going for the £100 tickets - should be a good view. I'm glad the pricing structure has remained reasonable..

    Probably means a packet of wafer thin ham and some Bernard Matthews turkey slices.

    100 percent.

    I do enjoy being at fights by all means, but my eyesight is shot to pieces so unless I'm right close up it's a bit of a waste. Give me my comfy sofa and the option to flick over to Babestation between fights any day of the week

    Yeah was a bit hectic on the website. Impressed with eventim though - handled the load very well. The website was very fast, quickly said if you were unsuccessful and let you keep retrying - I eventually got the £100 tickets I wanted!

    Completely different to the likes of Brook vs GGG where you were sat there for 20 minutes not knowing what's going on.

    Managed to snag some floor seats but touts have cleaned that place up. I was on a second after 9 and sections were already sold out!

    I got tier 1 tickets. I had to refresh the page a few times before I got them, but got there in the end.

    I managed to get four top tier ones. Wanted the £100 Tickets but couldn't so ended up with the £60 ones. Got mine off Viagogo rest are going on Eventim, should I be worried?

    Touts have absolouetly mullered the tickets though. £60 ones now on Stubhub for £500

    You got your off Viagogo? that is a tout/resale site, so chances are your £60 ticket is actually a £30 or £40 version. Saying that, you've not paid too far over the odds if you have got them from Viagogo.

    Eventim was the (only) seller for face value tickets.

    I've been to quite a few amateur shows, came into a bit of money and went to a concert at the o2 a few weeks back, thought I'd treat myself for the haye/bellew 2 fight, worked out how far away seated I'd be happy to be and still see the fight, came home looked up those seats and was not expecting them to be £250, no thanks!

    much rather be sat at home watching with a few ales and a ruby

    Got them via the Manchester arena website it directed us to Viagogo? I've used Viagogo for horse racing tickets so don't mind.

    Came to £83 each for £60 Tickets I believe. Was £331 for 4 anyhow. Don't mind, should be electric in there. Probably best all British fight for some time.
