Comments Thread For: Fury-Whyte: Wembley Stadium Will Be Venue For April 23 Fight If Deal Is Consummated

When was the last all British HW title fight in England? Lewis vs Bruno? I can’t think of any other off hand…

That's probably correct although AJ could have fought Whyte a few years back but bottled it. As a comparison with other countries with a small population the UK certainly does produce good boxers

Big mistake ,the word Consummated is way to big a word for Fury fans . Watch them flood this thread with Hearn trying to sabotage the fight .

The limit is 4 letters, like boar.

We know joshua vs either of these two does 80,000 at Wembley. It's gonna be interesting to see what the attendance is for these two against each other.

I have a feeling that Warren has made a mistake here as Fury isn't the big draw people think he is and Whyte ain't that great either. Will see how ticket sales go as this is Wembley not the 02

Is this gonna be on ppv too? Spence/Ugas one week b4...

It's a no brainer for UK fans.

Yeah I agree. And why Wembley? I thought Fury wanted a big fight in a big Manchester stadium? Maybe Warren should just go back to leaving things to Bob lol.

Well done to Tyson, The Bobfather, and Frankie me ole mucker!

[PBR Streetgang]

So when do they expect to close the deal and have everything official?

Whyte is a big draw though ,when you have 2 guys of interest only one guy needs to carry the fight . I think it nearly sells out if Covid isn’t an issue . It’s a U.K title fight what it dies though outside of that is anyones guess . I know they cannot get a Wembley fight without Whyte though even though he’s not a draw .

Wembley is bigger then Manchester by a good approximate of 40,000. Fury is going to have to lose his voice to sell this one if Whyte doesn’t cooperate into selling it . I think it does well though Fury should have just enough interest with U.K fans and the match up should sell itself with BT doing most of the promotion which is a weak link compared to Matchroom doing a U.K stadium fight because it’s not a big thing fir them . Hope BT doesn’t drop the ball .

Does it do 80,000? I can't see it. But I'm curious to see what it does do.
