Matchroom boxing are/we're the major shareholder of Stubhub?
I tried for most of these fights but refuse to pay 3, 4 or even 5 times the face value of a ticket when I'll end up stuck in the very highest seating area using binoculars just to see the fight.
Frank Warren has championed against these websites for a few years now (Fuelled by his spat with Hearn no doubt) and it actually got brought up in Parliament recently and looks like things are changing.
It's not just Boxing and sports events either.
Ed Sheeran is another one who wants change and doesn't want his fans ripped a new asshole just to see his gigs.
It's still not fraud. People don't have to click 'buy'. It does suck and many countries around the world are trying to crack down on it.




That's the problem.. technically it's legal but Hearn has been carefully kissing the razorblade without kissing for years now it if you get me and hopefully that bubbles burst (as if the cunt doesn't make enough £$£$ anyway)
I heard there's still AJ v Povetkin tickets available as we speak which is unheard of for Josh's last 3 fights 😉
It is unheard of, especially as in my opinion this is a very competitive fight.

The ticket sale companies need to get more strict. Some governments have got involved.

Limit how many tickets can be sold to each credit card number, resale price should not exceed original price etc.
