Anyone Going Fury Chisora ? Knows the arena ?

[Mark TKO]

Happen to be in London that weekend and though I wasn't interested but the fact Eubank Jr is taking on BJS on undercard makes it more appealing.


Seems to be plenty of tickets left (low sales ?) anyway so might just decide on the day.

But anyway anyone been a fight at the Excel Arena before ? Whats it like to get to and back from late at night ?!?

Bit surprised the website doesnt even announce the event as coming soon too ??

What's On

Iv got tickets, am going with my brother. Will be a class show as long as all the fights go ahead! Tyson and Hughie Fury, Chisora, Eddie Chambers, Eubank Jr and Saunders.

[Mark TKO]

Thats why I'm going to leave it till last minute - don't trust either to go ahead with it

You been that arena before ?

[ross]

Nope, never.

[Mark TKO]

Oh. Me neither

[ross]

Oh. Me neither

Couldnt tell you what it would be liketo get to and from either. I live inguernsey!

We are staying in the Ramada hotel which is close by.

Its not far at all from Grenwich/Canary Wharf/O2 arena which are served by the Jubilee underground tube line.

You will have to get a Docklands DLR train from the above that runs right to the Arena and takes about 10 mins.

Just a big warehouse style venue and not great views for a fight as it isn't naturally tiered.

Underground trains stop around 11.45-midnight so you'll have to leave early if your not staying at a hotel.

Dont make eye contact with anyone from Tower Hamlets either

not last new years eve the new years eve before we hired a flat that overlooked the o2 and got the full force of the firework show at 12 - sat on the balcony, nice place and pretty expensive gig all considered

i fell asleep about 11 and missed it all tho

if theres tickets still available last minute i might get some

Ross,

Hope you have a good night, its good to see a fan putting his money up, as I did many times, irrespective of result have a good weekend. I have spent many expensive nights, in many strange and expensive places, supporting Joe Bugner, Lennox Lewis, John Conteh, all the decent middleweights, and finally David Haye. Have a good weekend away, its an experience.

Geoff

Thanks! Looking forward to it. Having to fly in and not a fan of flying!

Go Large!!!!!!

Guernsey to London City Airport , champagne all the way! You are wasting money going to the event, as we all do, so make it worthwhile by wasting as much as you possibly can on extras! Think your on to a 50/50 fight here, personally I dont give a toss who wins, but dont let the result cloud your ability to get to the bar, when you are a guest of Tyson Fury, you're his biggest fan so good luck to you.

I'm not going, were going to niges to drink and take drugs /)

[ross]

Boxnation have given me a couple of names to ask for when we get there and hopefully they will have been notified that we can come in without a ticket!

Bargain!

Glad they took pitty on us as id have been gutted if I couldn't experience the fun and games in there

[ross]

Although initially I thought Chambers was fighting on this card, he's just stated that he will be. Nice touch.

This has to be one of the best cards in a long time.

[Master]

Have a good time Ross. Photos and ring card girls please.
