    It makes me sick when boxers like the Smith brothers and Joshua are sponsored by stubhub. Logos plastered all over their t-shirts.

    They're all about the fans....right?!

    I think twice face value is about as cheap as it will get for the resale market - can see this going 3 x face or more come Friday lunchtime.

    It is an absolute disgrace and really needs to be legislated against. The resale market has been allowed to rip off the public for far too long.

    Got through on Priority on Wednesday, bank ended up refusing payment on the basis of "fraud detection"

    Tried again today, was in the queue from from 11.30 (must have been one of the first in there to be honest) until 12.30, at which point I left. Tickets sold out 10 minutes after going on sale so why they kept me queing I've no idea.

    Any know the amount that went out in general today?

    You've just paid 480 for tickets that were probably bought for 80 or 120. Stub hub are genuine, and it'll continue to operate as long as people buy massively marked up tickets on there.

    The Touts have the vast majority of tickets all sold before today.

    There was a token allocation of tickets today and don't believe the visual shyte on the seat map.

    How many actually purchased any non stubhub tickets today posting on here?

    Eddie happy, Touts happy, fighters happy, Stubhuh happy and genuine boxing fans out on the cold.

    If you're happy to pay someone an extra £180 for the privilege of getting a ticket for you, good for you. I certainly won't be.

    If people took a stand and refused to pay the prices touts offer then this would all be avoided.
