      Froch & Hearn are going to be laughing all the way to the bank.
      Wembley has 90,000 seats, i'm not sure how many they could get on the pitch, but we'll see, they will sell as many as they make avaliable.

      this is already the biggest selling fight in UK history, Hatton-Lazscano did 55,000 and this already passed that in one hour

          Ward is a great fighter but he's a dumb-ass when it comes to business.

          Look forward to Ward-Bika 2 in front of 3000 fans in oakland

                  well Eddie Hearn said in the interview with Kugan at iFL TV,
                  that once the 60 thousand tickets are sold, he will talk to transport london and then decided if more tickets will be sold, something along those lines...

                  i reckon more tickets will be sold

                    Agreed. Must suck being '168 King' and 'P4P top 5' and find out that this is the reality of things.

                      It was an E bloodbath. no other way to describe it.

                      Spent 45 minutes in ques, refreshing, clicking 'buy tickets' only to be knocked back. My friends got through to payment stages before their site crashed, but i never got close.

                      How many are getting to genuine fans and how many end up on tout websites we'll have to wait and see.
