Fury vs Wlad 2 Tickets

Im guna keep trying to see if any cheaper ones become available

 

A fair price would be tickets starting at £7.50 in the nosebleeds, going up to £50, with ringside at £100.

 

Was there a presale for this?

I was on Eventim website at 1pm sharp and there was literally no £50 or £80 tickets on sale, then suddenly they appear in batches of ten plus on Viagogo etc. Wonder if ****** saw a money making opportunity...

 

Why on earth are people prepared to spent their hard earned on this ****? The first fight was 2 clowns dancing in the middle of the ring scared to throw punches.

 

Because it's the proper heavyweight championshiop of the world with two of the best fighters in the division for years, not one champion against a hand picked bum.

The first fight wasn't a classic but it was enthralling all the way through, and there's likely to be more action this time as Vlad will have to come forward.

 

I wouldn't pay to watch it in my back garden.

 

I can see why all hard core boxing fans would want to see this fight, as very really do we get a great boxer fighting for s genuine title in this country. Instead of standard £40 tickets I would have paid £50 even £60 for cheapest tickets and thought that was fair because of fight on offer but £198 for a ****e seat is taking the ****. I am a fan of Furys and defend him but if this was AJ in his position him and Eddie would get slaughtered on here and Twitter for it.

 

I blame ****** to be honest. I distinctly remember him selling tickets for the Chisora-Fury fight at stupid prices, and I suppose with the absence of decent TV money the cash for Klitschko to come to the UK has to come from somewhere.

It's very, very dodgy how the lower priced tickets all disappeared staright away though, or were never on genuine sale to start with going by the chunks of over 10 on sale on tout sites.

I paid £125 each for a pair cos I thought they were nearly all gone, but of course they were slow releasing them during the afternoon. I doubt this will e a genuine sell out and wouldn't be surprised to see tickets being sold on for less than face value.

 

Yup, then again mick probably saw this as being able to prop him up in the medium term now he's lost his tv deal, could probably get away with this type of pricing in London, Manchester is different, over £1k for floor seats for a rematch of a bore and an undoubted shyte undercard

 

Is it FW that is behind the pricing of tickets, he previously said that queensbury arnt promoting the fight. Tier 1 tickets going for £500 is a ****take

 

I think Klit team and Hennessey will be ones behind pricing as their gig. It is odd if there are cheaper tickets and they were not on sale r these not the guys who take **** from Stubhub Eddie !!

 

As long as people keep paying the money, promotors will continue to charge the prices. It also reduces the mark-up on tickets sold on the secondary market.

 

Different if they're cheating though, by slow releasing tickets to create an impression of huge demand and diminishing ticket numbers only for more to appear much later on, and basically not listing any affordable ones.

I find it hard to believe that all the upper tier tickets were bought within a few seconds. Someone involved in the running of the event likely had a hand in this.

 

Unfortunately it's becoming standard practice now. I have a friend that works in music promotion, and some well known artists have instructed him that a percentage of tickets are to be sold via the likes of Viagogo/Seatwave etc. Their attitude is 'why should the touts be entitled to that money and not us', and it also then enables them to have an influence over the level of prices charged via the secondary market.

If they don't sell, they simply sell them through the usual channels as 'returns', and this is why tickets often become available last minute.


There's still a lot of resistance to ticket reselling in this country, yet over in the states it now seems to be 'the norm'. Hopefully it doesn't become as widely accepted over here!!

 

If it was in your garden why would you need to pay?
