Thread: UFC120 London

UFC120 London - October 16th at the O2 Arena.

Tickets still aren't sold out, anyone going?

Not for the price they are charging no, plus with the travelling to London, etc..i'b be looking at over £1000

I dont think the card is worthy .. especially when I have so many good mma cards to go watch in the midlands and a premier league team to follow

And I think that I might just go to the next event in germany


BISPING V AKIYAMA .. is a main event for casual fans

I can't see it selling out. I think that they have priced it way too high for the UK. I know it's popular but if you actually talk to people about ufc that aren't into MMA mostly they haven't heard of it let alone seen it. My dad for example. He's watched it a bit but most of his mates have never seen it. My cousins were both pro sportsmen in their field and have only seen it a few times. Despite it being so awesome to watch, I just don't think that it is a popular over here as Dana thinks

you're wrong .. the rise in mma gyms , shops etc shows it is as popular

Dana just thinks people will pay stupidly for it ..

This must be a consequence of the popularity downunder. I knew going there was bad news!! *waves fist in the air*

I seem to remember paying the same amount for the same seats at 105. It is too expensive but as long asd they go close to capacity there's no reason to drop the price.

I'd say it's up to us to get on twitter etc and moan are asses off though. I mean the UFC is great at responding to fans so we should be getting are voice heard about the poor cards and high prices!

It was the expo that sold it for me this time.

I stick with the ozzies being the ones whoe ruined it for the rest of us.
The paying ones that is.
The cheaper tickets may remain roughly the same amount but the best seats last time were £150 and £175 me thinks.

Well I was lower tier last time and this time too. This time it was £137.50 and I thought it was similar for Manchester?

I think there'll be a Fight Night in Scotland next year so hopefully that'll be more reasonably priced.

Don't get me wrong I think that the sport is growing hugley, which is great to see. What I meant to get across is that I don't think that the ufc is as popular over here as the ufc like to think, which is a shame becaaue of the amount of talented young brits being signed up. I think it's mainly down to the fact that it is only shown on espn and even then very late at night for obvious reasons.
