Tickets for Joseph Parker's WBO heavyweight title fight against Andy Ruiz at at Auckland's Vector Arena next month have been selling at a rapid rate, which has seen the lowest ticket price jump $170 in less than 24 hours. Tickets for the historic fight went on sale at midday yesterday, with the cheapest set of tickets that went on offer to the general public selling for $99. The cheapest tickets currently available for the fight have a price tag of $269, $170 more expensive than the originally lowest-priced tickets that went on sale less than a day ago. The most expensive tickets on offer for the first world title bout to take place in New Zealand are currently selling for $799, which would give buyers a ringside seat. Duco will be hoping that the current rate at which tickets are selling continues, especially considering the $4 million cost of hosting the fight in Auckland.
