Haye Struggling To Shift Tickets?

:rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl

 

Mate, Flint is serious about all his posts :yep

 

It's not easy selling out 20,000 tickets. It's fight week! Why isn't Haye all over the metro, londonlite, londonpaper, internet etc

Maybe Haye is having troubling promoting and training at the same time.

Ultimately though, winning will get him known.

Setanta should put Wlads fight on to hype the fight.

 

i think setanta are waiting for saturday's result before they purchase wlad rahman

 

There just seems to be a general feeling that everyone needs to tighten their belts a bit, and £50+ for a ticket seems just that little bit steeper that it did say six months ago. Not saying this is true for everyone but it must be affecting some people.

 

It really wasn't as big as you seem to think Flint...


I think the fact a fair amount of people went to NY for Joe, another bunch will go to watch Ricky, and I think Froch is gathering a considerable following too doesn't leave much for Haye to shoot at.

I think people seriously worry it will be a big expense and could be over in 2.

With xmas coming and people getting nervous about their finances it doesn't surprise me that they are baulking at probably £200 plus to come to London and watch the fight.

I mean we've had threads before about Setanta putting their monthly fee up £2 lol

 

bare in mind its an 18,000 seater venue there trying to fill. The first card warren put on there, with cook luevano and khan limmon only got 7,000 so anything above that will be a sucess.

 

The Haye vs Enzo fight had an intriguing British title fight as chief support - this one has an interalphabetty fight.

Throw in the fact that a lot of people are panicking about whether they will get paid next week and you have the answer.

A guy I know has (well had) a plastering company, and was owed £350k by a contractor that went bust. Took him under as well - 60 guys out of work.

 

Just a guess but the current ****edness of the economy is most probably a primary reason as to why no one is buying tickets.

 

there is also an event on the york hall,i dont know london (thank god) but i understand its pretty close.that surely is going to affect ticket sales.

 

You sure its not a blow up doll ?

 

Once was enough in those cheap seats at the O2, never again!!

 

I'd say boxing needs to bring its price down a little, especially in the current climate, your not gonna get "would be fans" or young kids who might start gettin into going to boxing, families, girlfriends etc are less likely to pay out so much on a night they may not enjoy.

 

I dont care if its two for one. I would rather watch it on my big widescreen!
I pay enough for bloody Setanta and Sky gota make use of it. Plus I would be pissed if someone gets knocked out in the first few rounds and I shelled out on a ticket, no matter how much it costs. Also the undercard is crap.
