    So I’ve bought tickets this morning. Had a bit of a problem it kept kicking me out and I was going back in and it was saying my tickets had been sold so I had to select others. Then another block appeared which I actually preferred. Block 114. So I bought these. Then no fight pass details needed entering or anything. Get an email off stubhub with an access code for my tickets. Then I realise the tickets are £40 over face value and I’ve bought off a “reseller” via stubhub?

    This is meant to be a fight pass members sale. Has a member really bought two tickets and put them up in the space of 10 minutes?

    Something fishy.

    Hearn’s arrangements with Stub Hub are dodgy as hell, none of that shocks me. Warren has exposed the dirty tactics before and Hearn has never properly refuted the claims.

    kinda odd. Just looked on there and the tickets are all priced as face value

    We got shafted for the Groves Eubank fight and ended up being top tier top row and it was still a decent enough view.

    From my understanding, Stubhub got given an 'X' amount of tickets for selling the tickets for Matchroom events.

    Read something couple of days ago about fight pass tickets only available on stubhub. Presume Matchroom tickets go on sale Monday. What are prices like?

    I have 2 to sell, block 215, Row F, £90 each which is what I paid (£80 plus booking fees). I was ordering for our group and two of them was undecided at the time of booking and have now decided it is too expensive by the time travel etc is added. Would rather sell to a fan at face than put them on resale.

    Let me know if you’re interested.

    I'm still struggling to get over the extortionate booking fees - nearly £16 to print and send a pair of tickets?!? I'm expecting eddie to deliver them to me personally for that fee

    I decided against going. The undercard put me off. Would have to set my alarm before the main event cause Crolla always puts me to sleep. Josh Kelly vs TBA doesn't excite me that much. Walsh vs Lowe is a good fight but probably one that's as good to watch at home.
