I do not know what to think of the rematch. First time I was very confident Groves would win but will Froch allow the same thing to happen in a rematch? We already know Froch is the stronger of the 2 and will try to impose himself. I cant wait for this fight

Wonder how close they'll get to capacity.

Don't think I'll be going now then, the view will be **** in a stadium,unless your ringside.

Amazing. Talk about a mega-fight.

[BodiesInFlight]

How much will the tickets be roughly does anyone know?

[Weltschmerz]

They're not actually putting up 80,000 tickets for sale, are they?

Strange choice. It's a horrible venue for this kind of event, and I think they'll struggle to fill it. Also, isn't there a sporting event (England vs. Peru) scheduled the night before?

They're going to need to stack the undercard and offer heavily discounted upper tier seats (which are pointless...) to get anywhere near capacity.


The Millennium Stadium would have been a better bet, because of the retractable roof. The Emirates wouldn't have been a bad call, either. It has better acoustics (more atmosphere) and is achievable with regard to numbers.
