With Wembley announced as the venue, they could potentially do 80,000 tickets. This rematch is also going to be HUGE on PPV, it's a fight everyone wants including casuals.
There is more interest in this than any british fight I can think of in recent memory the first fight did 300k buys, but casuals were not that interested, and most saw it as a bit of a mismatch and watched down the pub instead. The rematch is red hot, and has FAR more interest than the first.
In fact i think you have to go back to Hatton vs Floyd which did I think 1.2 million buys. I don't think this will reach those heights, but it potentially could. I think it will do 800k buys though. which will be about $33,000,000
Gate will probably be more than $10,000,000
Add that to the HBO money and sponsorship and and this is going to be enormous. Conservative estimate of $50,000,000 which is just massive for a uk fight
