    Afternoon Gents. Usually frequent Reddit for Boxing and Sherdog for my MMA needs, but just discovered this forum.

    Curious as to who on here is making the trip. I have decided to. Going Wednesday 29th to Monday 3rd. Paid £265 flights from Heathrow, Air bnb in Brooklyn for two of us for £500 and got a pair of the $206 tickets.

    Like quite a few British fans I'm sure, I was hoping Fury vs Wilder 2 would have been anounced prior. The dicking around making the fight and especially this ESPN deal has forced a decision to be made before flights go up and the cheaper tickets are unavailable.

    Cheapest ticket for me is $400+, a flight from Manchester is £210. I was going to go but that ticket price is too much.

    Welcome :)

    I can't go but I wish I could. A world heavyweight title at MSG is bucket list worthy.

    Looks like they've slapped $50 on the cheaper seats that are left as well. Those $350 dollar tickets were $306 before general sale. Flights are a good price for you.

    The flight prices are very good. Really not that expensive at all.

    I need a wheelchair accessible seat and the cheapest is $400, for two people its then $800. It's way up in the heavens to, if it was closer I might be tempted. Normally when I go boxing it's £80 for two people for a disabled seat. The gate for the event is going to be massive, can't believe the prices on some of the lower tier seat. Doesn't help the £ is **** at the moment.

    The £ being shite definitely doesn't help at all. For what its worth, the upper tier at MSG is better than I've experienced at any other arena. I went to the basketball last time I went and was looking at the centre logo thinking this would be great for boxing or MMA. Luckily my $206 seats are pretty similar to I had last time.

    Surely they have to pull the Allen Browne fight after this. Dave doesn’t seem in any mental state to box until he gets his troubles sorted they shouldn’t put him in the ring.

    Matchroom should get him the best help possible seeing as they have used Allen to bail out so many ppv’s.

    Send an email or call their customer service line. If they can't do any better, oh well at least you tried. You would be surprised how far a phone call or email gets you when asking for wheelchair accessible options. I have had great success in the past, especially for music venues.

    Disclaimer: I can only speak on the times I have blown out various joints and were temporarily in a wheelchair, I can't speak to the every day experience of this .

    How random for this thread lol.

    Dave Allen needs to put the bottle down and get his fat arse in the gym. Sick to death of people throwing mental health about when they having a few down days. Allen has been given so many great oppertunitys, most people can only dream of and they have far more talent then this wasteman.

    Sounds to me he is loosing his bottle for the Browne fight
