BOXING fans will be hit with a knockout blow if they want to attend Katie Taylor’s bout as most of the remaining tickets are selling for €500.
The Bray brawler will take on two-division world champion Chantelle Cameron on Saturday in the 3Arena – but the event isn’t a sell-out.
Olympic gold medallist Michael Carruth said the tickets are a “bit too pricey” and any that are unsold should go to the grass roots.
The Dubliner, who is now an IABA Boxing Development Officer with Dublin City Council, told the Irish Mirror: “It’s not her [Taylor] who is putting the prices up, it’s the promoters and the managers.
“It would be a nice thing to do. There are over 360 boxing clubs in Ireland and if the tickets aren’t being sold, they should give them to people who will make good use of them like young girls or boys who want to go and support her.
“Spread the love as they say. If they’re not going to be used, get some people in to support her. Katie deserves a full house.
