With their highly-anticipated heavyweight rematch going down from the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on Saturday night, boxing fans want to know exactly how much Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk 2 tickets cost.
How Much Do Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk 2 Tickets Cost?
The Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia takes centre stage as the rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury is finally upon us. Seven months on from their first encounter, the two best heavyweights in the world are set to battle for the second time in their historic rematch.
This stellar car has once again been put on by His Excellency Turki Alalshikh, with Riyadh Season once again providing boxing fans with the best fights possible and the fighters with career-high paydays.
With that being said, tickets to go and watch the Fury vs Usyk rematch aren’t as expensive as you might have thought.
The Kingdom Arena has a rough capacity of 40,000, with ticket prices ranging from low to high. That being said, it is unlikely the rematch has sold out, with far less than 40,00 actually expected to be in attendance on fight night.
Tickets for Oleksandr Usyk vs Tyson Fury 2 in fact range from as little as £7, right up to as much as £28,443. This is according to ticket sites such as Viagogo and StubHub, who still have tickets on sale ahead of Saturday’s contest.
The cheapest £7 tickets for Usyk vs Fury 2 are of course the furthest away from the ring, up at the top of the arena. The most expensive tickets are the inner ringside ones right beside the ring and ring walk track, which are priced at a maximum of £2,599.
Compared to the average price of PPV boxing tickets, these are more than affordable. Yes, UK boxing fans will have to pay for their travel and accommodation in Saudi, but the actual tickets for the fight are most definitely affordable in the most part.
How Does The Usyk vs Fury 2 Ticket Price Compare To Previous Boxing Events?
It is difficult to compare the ticket prices for Fury vs Usyk 2 to regular UK boxing shows. The majority of UK boxing shows will cost a minimum of £50 for a ticket. Compare that to Saturday’s fight at the Kingdom Arena at just £7 for the cheapest seats.
With fans travelling from the UK and other parts of the world to Saudi Arabia for the Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk rematch, it comes as no surprise to learn that tickets are more on the affordable side than expensive.
Given that fans are having to pay for travel and accommodation, it is a wise move from all involved with Riyadh Season to keep the Fury vs Usyk 2 tickets on the cheaper side. UFC President Dana White should take not, who has been heavily criticised in the past for the UFC‘s extortionate ticket prices.
In terms of past boxing events, it is almost impossible to compare ticket prices between Saudi Arabia shows and UK events. It’s a totally different market, not to mention the fact the aim isn’t necessarily to make money in Saudi Arabia, it is to make their Kingdom appealing to fans and invite people to visit Saudi.
All in all, the Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk rematch tickets are very generously priced for fans, and won’t break the bank. That being said, paying for the flights and accommodation might hit you in the pocket with some force instead!
Prior to Saturday’s main event, the best boxing betting sites in the UK have priced Usyk as the slight favourite for the heavyweight rematch.
