Take it to Barcalona, camp Nou, about 120.000 seats.

I think UK is an excellent place to set the fight.
it's high time to change the atmosphere. I will definitely fly over if this happens. :PComment

Wembley Stadium can hold 90,000+ for a football game.

or the Millennium stadium which holds 75,000+ and can close its roof.

If they want to shatter attendance records then hold it one of these grounds, sadly it won't happen though.Comment

Whne i went to the Hatton fight at Man City stadium, i paid £250 ($425ish) for my ticket, which certainly aint a football ticket price.USA gate takings are usually bigger for Floyd's fights.I dont think many people will be willing to pay thousands of £££ for the fight.When Ricky Hatton fought in a stadium he didnt get much money although the stadium was full.Calzaghe used to fight in a stadium and fill it up and still get peanuts.You cant host a big boxing event where people are only prepared to pay football type of prices.Comment

£1 is $1.6625
£75 x 50k = 3,750,000
£100 x 40k = 4,000,000
£250 x 5k = 1,250,000
£500 x 4k = 2,000,000
£750 x 800 = 600,000
£1000 x 150 = 150,000
£5000 x 50 = 250,000
equals 12 million UK pounds or $19,950,000
I just guessed the prices though. Would people be willing to pay it?Last edited by PensionKiller; 12-01-2009, 04:22 PM.Comment

If the UK wanted to Pacquiao-Mayweather, they would have made an offer.
Promoters would never go over anyway, because England taxes half, Las Vegas and Texas there are no taxes for these events. Hence, why they are the front runners.Comment
