Tickets just went on sale for AJ vs Miller... lowest price for lower bowl $500. My usual seat in the lower bowl going for $750... hilarious. I'll be watching for $10/month on DAZN.

I hate Joshua but I hope he whacks that fat trollop Miller. Scandalous pricing, especially when you consider "neither are known" in the USA.

Scandalous pricing, especially when you consider "neither are known" in the USA. yeah Eddie Hearn is definitely hoping the English punters will think $500 for lower bowl MSG is "normal" plus it will have very limited PPV potential so they are trying to make up the purse from ticket sales. MSG frankly is a dump compared to the Barclays - they just rely on the "mecca of boxing" history which is bollocks when you see what a dump the place is. It'll be interesting to see how this all plays out. Khan tickets are 1/2 the price of the AJ fight - Wilder vs Fury II is what everyone wants. With any luck that will be at the Barclays.

Just watched the Spence v Garcia fight. Wow Errol Spence was fantastic. In what should have been a close fight he just absolutely bullied him. Fantastic performance

Did anyone catch Lomachenko? The bloke has some serious foot movement. Ok a total mismatch, IMO it should have been stopped when the ref gave a standing count as he was teeing off on Crolla at that point. It will be interesting where both go from now. Crolla has done remarkable but I think it’s time now to say enoughs enough

Completely schooled Crolla, who isn't what he used to be, but take nothing away from Lomachenko it was an effortless performance. I'm not sure about the count, Crolla was still ducking and weaving and trying to stay out of the way even if he wasn't returning fire. Why the ref started to count the knockout on the other hand... You could see that he was out cold

What a great night of boxing ahead. I’m actually excited to watch Dave Allen! Never said that before but what a great punch up it could be.
Then no doubt Khan will put us through it again. In interviews I’ve seen and again at the weigh in Khan looks a beaten man to me. I hope to god I’m wrong. I think Crawfords timing will be far to much for Khan. But I’ll be up hoping to be proven wrong. Come on Khan

The last time I saw him I thought "now I get it". He's solid, strong and like you say he's got great timing. I think Amir starts well, and wins a few early rounds with his speed. I think from 6 rounds on, Crawford starts to wear Khan down for a late stoppage(I'll go for round 11).

No idea what BT were thinking expecting fight fans to pay for this

I was ringside for the Khan fight last night at MSG. I didn't think he'd make it past the 2nd after the 1st knock down! He was totally out classed by Crawford. The end was total non-sense. He knew he was about to get KO'd and the low blow gave him the out.. it was seconds before he told Hunter he could't go on, Hunter stopped it and the Ref waived it off. Total confusion in the crowd. Then it was called "accidental". Oh well.. Amir is done at the level and has been for a while, he had that hand injury years back when he was training with Freddy. I really don't want to see Khan vs Brook - he's past it too. Onto Wilder vs Brazelle... another easy to call there. I like Domonic and his last outing was good but against a not so good opportunity but easy money for Wilder. Ticket prices for that are still crazy as are AJ's. I'll probably wait until 10 mins before fight time before buying! Hope all is well mate.

You always to be at the big fights. What do you recommend re getting hold of tickets? Are they easy enough? It sounds like you use touts on occasions?? Any advice would be appreciated... Cheers

Think I’m still recovering ha ha. I was very surprised he got through the first. From the opening bell I thought he looked beat. Crawford I thought was excellent. Timing superb. I agree with you regards wanting a way out. The KO was clearly coming, so the low blow came at a good time. Both him and Brook have nowhere to go now, so I can see that fight happening. Admittedly both past it but I think it’s a certainty to happen. I’m with you on the wilder fight. Easy money, I can see wilder catching him early. Looking forward to Canelo Jacobs, I cant back against Canelo but I do think Jacobs will create some problems early on. Take care mate

You always to be at the big fights. What do you recommend re getting hold of tickets? Are they easy enough? It sounds like you use touts on occasions?? Any advice would be appreciated... Cheers Hey Dave... yeah I live in Manhattan so it's easy for me to get to MSG or Barclays. I buy on Ticketmaster but the promoters play games with pricing. I check prices daily to see what's going on. The seat I paid $250 for the Khan fight they want $800 for the AJ fight which is a joke. I'll wait it out and I'm sure they will drop prices, I'm lucky enough to be able to wait until 10 mins before the fight buy a ticket have dinner, get a cab and still be there in plenty of time. It all electronic tickets now on your iPhone. It was just annoying to see Brits being taken advantage of when they released tickets then saying it was the biggest grossing opener.. yeah because the fleeced the fans! There are still plenty of seats left. Wilder fight at Barclays is priced over the odds as well but not that much, there should be another price drop. I can't make the GGG fight as I'm in Dallas for the the Indy Car GP but those tickets look very reasonable. I've only done 1 fight in Vegas but it was a good one - Pac vs Marquez III (the one where Pac was KO'd). I was very lucky to be only 6 rows back from the ring for that one (my best friend was dating Pac's trainer- Freddie Roach at the time). Vegas is no different for Tickets - they are all on TM. But it is a great atmosphere there.. One piece of advice - always sit in the lower bowl. if you are in the upper you may as well watch it on TV imho! Floor seats are great but the lower rows of the lower bowl give you a better view sometimes and the seats are more comfortable. If it's a sell out fight and you really want to go StubHub is fine - I've bought and sold on there with no issues. Good luck with your travels mate.

Although I never manage to win anything Big fan of Danny with him being our local fighter but sadly I don't think he'll get past Canelo. He'll have to stay on the outside and try and use his speed and athletic ability. Going inside is not going to turn out well!

Expecting more from Allen tonight, didn't get going at all.
Rivas a dangerous opponent for Whyte, hopefully Dillian can overcome him though.

BJS already getting wrote off by many, but everytime the lad has stepped up in class he’s delivered. He has all the attributes to make this a nightmare fight for Canelo. I do think Canelo might stop him late on but I certainly wouldn’t be surprised If Billy got a points verdict

Very often goes on the back foot in later rounds when he’s in front.

I'd say confidently I watched 8 out of the 12 rounds (I fell asleep a couple of times) but from what I saw Usyk didn't look to have enough to threaten Fury or more immediately Joshua. Good technical boxer, no doubt about that though.

Usyk is a fantastic boxer but I don’t think he will trouble Joshua or Fury too much. I thought Chisora did ok last night but didn’t have the speed to close the distance and make his power count. When he did catch Usyk you could see he wasn’t overly comfortable, so if he competes at the top end it may be more telling.
In other news, have you seen Wilder has finally spoken out about the beating Fury gave him? Another excuse made, he thinks Fury had an ‘egg weight’ in his gloves because he dented his head....what a weapon.
