Tickets for Tyson Fury’s comeback fight could find yourself costing punters lower than an ad-free Netflix subscription to observe it from home.

In the UK, you possibly can get an ad-heavy version of the subscription service for just £6, or around $8. But should you want a normal package without the hassle of commercials, it should cost a minimum of £13 or simply over $16.

Now, tickets for Fury’s return to the ring for the primary time since losing to Oleksandr Usyk twice in 2024 are being sold on resale sites for as little as $14. This implies it might be cheaper so that you can head to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and watch it live than it might be to view it on TV.

Tyson Fury tickets reach lows of $14 as he struggles to attract fans for comeback fight

There have been query marks surrounding Tyson Fury’s longevity as a ticket-seller in his native England as he prepares to make one last run for a world title at 37. He kicks off his campaign against the Russian Arslanbek Makhmudov, but appears to be struggling to draw fans to observe it.

Netflix will stream the event survive Saturday night, marking their fifth boxing event and seemingly the lowest-interest effort up to now.

Fury previously sold out a record-breaking 94,000 at Wembley Stadium, and drew just shy of 60,000 to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for clashes with Dillian Whyte and Derek Chisora respectively. Each are similarly small names, but are higher known to British fans.

Nonetheless, this time around he’s doing it without Hall of Fame promoter Frank Warren as Netflix and Turki Alalshikh are taking the reins. The official name promoter is Spencer Brown of Goldstar Promotions, who has been managing Fury for years.

And on the time of writing, if fans head to resale site Viagogo they’ll find tickets for the upper sections that cost as little as $14 for the event. In the event that they want a better view, floor seats can be found for as little as $127 which is unheard of for a serious Netflix fight.

Tyson Fury addresses lower ticket sales

Fury is having to do that fight without the support of his father John, who has disavowed his latest return from retirement. And his brother Tommy Fury has also expressed a desire for his sibling to hold up his gloves after a legendary profession.

It also seems that he can have also driven away the British public given latest ticket numbers. But he defended the event during an appearance on Good Morning Britain on the very start of fight week.

“Let’s just say it’s been a really busy few months within the boxing scene all all over the world,” Fury explained when the poor ticket sales were brought up. “Especially within the UK there’s been a whole lot of big fights on. However the Gypsy King all the time sells out.

“On the night there can be 60,000-odd in attendance which is full capability [Anthony Joshua vs Oleksandr Usyk in 2021 drew 66,267 at the same venue]. So yeah, it’s absolutely flew.

“The tickets haven’t been as fast as, say, the 2 days I sold out Wembley 94,000. But it surely has gone over the past month or so, and we’re going to be at full capability on the night needless to say.”
