was no where near full capacity, someone said they had shut the top teir off and people had there tickets transfered for higher priced tickets.
i heard they had sold 7,000 and that half of that bought tickets at the door. so around 10,000. not bad, and more than Warrens show with Khan, Cook and Skelton did last year. Whereever Haye is next time will do really well, and if he get wlad or vitalli a footie stadium will be needed.
I was there and the floor was full but seats on level 1 were almost full. Level 4 was completely blocked off (if you've been o2 you know what im talking bout). I think closer to 8,000 is a good guess. I dont know where frank warren got only 2,000 seats sold a week before the event
Warren put on a rubber glove and plucked it from his A-hole as he does most things for that column :fire
Given the economic climate, xmas round the corner and that Calzaghe and Hatton have sandwiched him I dont think thats a bad turn out. Haye should keep his fights in London, build a good home fan base like Ricky did. Fighting regularly aswel will helps lots.
The O2 can seat around 17,000 or so max. Im guessing it was around the 5000 mark or so. Either way the arena was very empty. Those tickets were simply too dear.
First time I'd been to the O2. The top part was shut off. I'd say it was about 75% full. I'd say 7,000 to 10,000 is about right.
