Haha no. That's the annual cost of the membership. You only get one code per year so not really transferable

Haha you got me there for a few seconds, not with it at all today.

I’ll sign up meself so, I thought it was more expensive for some reason.

Yeah it's well worth it if ya have your heart set on going. Especially if there's one or two to spilt the membership. Got Liverpool and hopefully London out of my year long subscription this time around.

Kessler3000 · 29-01-2019 8:05pm

I've gone to all bar one UFC in the O2 and you can usually use the Fightclub presale on both Ticketmaster and AXS. They tend to be allocated different blocks of tickets so no harm having two windows open. Usually the cheapest (£50) are the last few rows of the upper tier and the second price range will be the rest of that tier. Then it works from the back of the lower for the next price range and so on. They do small adjustments depending on the show but that's the usual pattern. Liverpool was a smaller arena so it was literally just the last row at the cheapest price but London will probably have around 4-6 rows as it's much bigger. Not great, but Liverpool was extreme on that front.

dulux99 · 29-01-2019 10:27pm

Maybe I'm just thick but I can't find the Ticketmaster link for the presale. Does anyone have it? I'm going to have two tabs open in that case

Edit, found it this morning

dulux99 · 30-01-2019 7:57am

Well, as of this morning there are sites live on both axs and Ticketmaster for the fight club presale. Gonna just give them both a whirl and see which offers me better seats.

Best of luck lads, hopefully we all get sorted.

rob316 · 30-01-2019 9:40am

All the best lads, hope we're all happy

dulux99 · 30-01-2019 9:44am

Axs waiting room is open, had to refresh the page to join it

hunter164 · 30-01-2019 10:04am

Got 2 of the £70 ones &#55357;&#56835; just need to book flights now!

dulux99 · 30-01-2019 10:06am

Done and dusted through Ticketmaster at 9.03

Very happy with my seats

Mr. Manager · 30-01-2019 10:10am

Details: BK C3, Row N - sweet

D.Q · 30-01-2019 10:16am

Axs are incredible.

Lets you pick your section.

Block 403, row M x 4.

Side on and high up, absolutely delighted. 70 pound each.

rob316 · 30-01-2019 10:20am

Got 4 on ticketmaster and 2 on AXS. Happy days, loads there still

Unbelievably I got 2 £50 tickets on AXS, so they do exsist

Paully D · 30-01-2019 10:23am

I’ve always found AXS to be brilliant and very smooth too.

Glad you all got sorted lads. Enjoy!

D.Q · 30-01-2019 10:36am

Buzzing. Can happily watch the press conference today now in the knowledge I'm going to it.

Mr. Manager · 30-01-2019 10:55am

Managed to get 2 additional floor seats just now

weird how this didn't sell out with a main event confirmed yet last year it was gone in minutes without one

dulux99 · 30-01-2019 11:11am

I went with Ticketmaster ahead of Axs because my Ticketmaster page loaded whereas the axs thing had me in a que still. Had the seating map open next to me and got row D aisle seats on the upper tier, which is ideal so I just went with them. I was getting 6 tickets, luckily I wasn't getting any more because there was never any announcement on limitations. Fight club says it's 8 per event unless specified otherwise, which just isn't true.

Saturation

rob316 · 30-01-2019 11:16am

It'll still sell out easy in the general sale if there is even any tickets left

Paully D · 30-01-2019 11:38am

Diakise vs Duffy expected to be on this card too.

Another nice matchup.

Gutted I’m missing this

dulux99 · 30-01-2019 1:59pm

Excellent additions. Buzzing for this. Puts last year's Liverpool card to shame.

Turns out he's fighting Jose Quinonez now , not Rivera

D.Q · 31-01-2019 12:01am

Any of you guys who have been over before, how do the weigh ins generally work? When/how are tickets released?

For years they did it in the concourse of the Dome, outside the arena part just around where the bars and restaurants are. That was terrible as it was a flat surface in an open space so the views and sound were awful. Then they tried the Indigo at O2, the smaller venue within the Dome that Cage Warriors runs. That was a complete shambles for Bisping vs Silva as they had 100-200 extra people who queued for around an hour that couldn't fit in and were turned away. They had cut the queue off but still miscounted by around 30-40 people. The last two years they finally copped on and did it in the O2 itself. I don't think it's been ticketed and is just a case of showing up on the day. If you've a bag with you you'll have to drop it off in a baggage area outside the Dome that's about a 10 minute walk.

Cheers for that! Jaysus I know that concourse area, how could anyone think that's a good idea.

Belter. Glad to see Mike Grundy get a run out, should be a decent crowd down from Liverpool to support the 3 scousers.

D.Q · 31-01-2019 12:18pm

absolutely savage card.

DATABOY · 31-01-2019 3:10pm

Anyone else having trouble getting tickets for this today? Would the General sale tomorrow be easier?

There gone. If you don't have fight club you have no hope. Only other option is pay twice price on reseller sites

Really sad indictment of ticket selling practices that the general sale, when the most amount of tickets are released, is looked at as a no hope event.

Your completely right of course, but still. Needs to change.

Its the same as any tickets for high profile events. Try get Liverpool match tickets, even with a membership its hopeless. Hell I bought tickets for Fulham vs Liverpool this morning, only way you could buy them was buy the £40 membership aswell.

There were plenty of tickets available this morning at 10am for the newsletter presale and the Ticketmaster presale.
Was free to get access.

Most of the tickets are released in the presales ,its usually only a small percentage that goes on general sale,thats why its a sham.

DATABOY · 31-01-2019 4:23pm

Is there any point in buying fight club membership now and trying?

I tried this morning with the presale code but had no success ðŸ˜•

No. The presale has been and gone, the fight club presale closes as soon as the newsletter presale starts.

I've had the fight club membership for the last 4 years and to be honest I like the system. It means by in large the tickets are going to the real fans.

If it was a free for all on the morning of the tickets going on sale, huge amounts of genuine fans would be left empty handed. As another poster said it's the same for premiership teams, and even some musical acts like U2.

I agree, I'm a genuine fan and I had fight club membership but haven't gone to an event in two years so I didn't renew. Wish I did now

rob316 · 01-02-2019 11:02am

Well it looks to be sold out already

Got tickets today and it wasn't too difficult. There's always hope bud

ktulu123 · 07-02-2019 12:10pm

Has anyone ever ordered tickets through Stubhub? Managed to get two from there that weren't too overpriced (Was a late birthday present bought spur of moment).

I have but not for an MMA event. Gotten them a few times for football matches, never had a problem. Well apart from being gouged with prices.

ktulu123 · 07-02-2019 2:29pm

Ah yeah, it was a special birthday for the brother so I didn't mind about the price. (Also I get to go with

)

Autecher · 07-02-2019 6:50pm

Ian Heinisch is stepping in to fight Tom Breese. Should be a good fight. There is a poster here who is friends with Ian, I can't remember who it is though.
