Comments Thread For: Froch-Groves Rematch To Land At Wembley Stadium

I went to Wembley to see Britain play in the Olympics and thought it was a great venue and the atmosphere seemed pretty good too.

I will go to the fight but only if I can get seats on the lower tier. Don't fancy being up in the clouds.

British fans will have to be quick off the mark, though, as the fight is bound to sell out quickly despite the size of the venue

I highly doubt that this will even be a sellout. 80,000 is a LOT. Dooley saying that fans need to act quickly, has me suspecting that Eddie Hearn has hacked his laptop.

Absolutely best outdoor venue he could get. Props to Eddie Hearn for pulling of a coup like that.

Think they could co-main event Khan v Brook?

Would be a complete waste of money and will never happen.

Froch wanted this in Nottingham with 30k capacity, and of the pool of larger stadiums it's somewhat understandably gone to the largest which is 80k.

The buzz has faded since the 1st match but it'll peak again once coverage of the verbal spars etc. pick up.

90,000 and that's not taking into consideration seats that will be installed on the pitch.

As if Amir Khan would ever share billing with a lowly fighter such as Froch or Groves.

Maybe if Froch - Groves agree to be on the undercard Khan will headline but only if he gets to keep 90% of the PPV because he is the most popular fighter in the world and would obviously be the main reason people tuned in.

Plus he would bring in all that huge TV money from the Middle East and Pakistan. LMAO!

Nice one! But I agree to an extent about the views. But it is the sort of thing you would go to just for the event.

I think the top tiers even at the 02 is a shocking view so not sure how much of a difference it makes. You can't score fights from there.

Also I think they will fill it. Definitely.

If they filled Wembley for WWF Summerslam '92 - they'll fill it for this:
