but... but... he glassed me! How can you beat that?

Please no to having this fight in Cardiff

Cardiff is a really nice venue, went there for the Calzaghe-Kessler fight.

From the sounds of it it'll be Old Trafford or Emirates.

Twickenham, Etihad and Wembley look ruled out because of events already happening.

Praying for London because my wife is coming with and will be coming straight from a training course!

This is a big fight, sure, but I'd surprised if they went for Wembley or Twickenham. Cardiff is a safe bet, because of the retractable roof, but I'd prefer the Emirates (I live in Islington )

Yah i agree this will be bigger than Haye vs Chiorah, only because we've seen these two tango once already and it was epic! A rematch gives potential for an even more Epic battle. Suppose Groves does win? Will there be a Trilogy to settle the score once and for all? Good cinema.

Groves has never given a rematch before when he really should have to degale and Kenny Anderson. Can't see him doing it to make a trilogy if he wins.

Being the home of Man United means that Old Trafford is by no means my favourite arena haha..it would be pretty easilly accessible for me though.

So would be a good thing for me if it was in the North. Will be interesting to see which stadium they go for.

[TGD]

Anywhere but London as far as I'm concerned. No way should it be on Groves' home turf.

Twickenham holds 82,000, more than Wembley, but no roof. Wembley doesn't have a roof over the pitch area where the ring would be.

Millennium Stadium (72,500) is probably the best bet in terms of weather but it's in Wales.

Both Wembley and Millenium have roofs for the pitch area...
As Wembley is booked, they should go to Cardiff...

... The pitch seats are the most expensive... and the rainfall in the U.K. do have a significant incidence...

Would you like to see how old Froch is dealing with rainfall?
... Remember the last Martinez' fight?
