Khan - McCloskey - Sold Out!

Not surprising, Boxing is thriving outside of the U.S. and guys like Khan, Bute, the Klits routinely sell out arenas/stadiums that have 15K+ capacity in a matter of hours.

I think of all the names that GBP has been throwing at Floyd, Khan in the UK is the most likely to happen. Floyd has always wanted to fight in the UK and was planning on rematching Hatton there before Manny derailed those plans. Mayweather-Khan at Wembley would be HUGE.

Seventeen thousand, nine hundred and something I think is the arena

not surprised america is the only place having problems selling out boxing matches. the only ones they really sellout are the megafights like Pacquiao, Mayweather, and Cotto fights.

Let's wait and see if the whole arena is in use. They might have reduced capacity by closing sections off.

If it has sold 18,000 that's great for boxing. 90,000 Mancunians are in London tonight for the football and Bolton will take another 40,000 down tomorrow. I thought that would dramatically affect tonight's attendance at the MEN.

Wiki says boxing at the M.E.N can hold up to 21,000.

Would be surprised if there were more than 18k there though..

Wow khan at the m e n arena is sold out.Amazing considering man u and man city are playing to tonight.

Is the capacity for boxing at MEN 20k or 18k?

My mate has just walked up to the box office and purchased 2 tkts, he says there are plenty left and the event is not nowhere near a sell out.
