    I want this fight to take place in Germany but i dont think it'll happen. Most likely in UK.

      China & Dubai ? Lol..
      Hearn keeps blowing up smoke.. The fight would most likely happen in UK & the next best option would be US(Vegas/MSG)

        I can't see it happening anywhere else other than the UK.

        Most of AJ's fanbase is in the UK.

          Wlad has a slim chance outside Germany . Anyone can down play the importance of where a fight takes place ,but in this case any where else severely takes away what i think Klitchko will need bc Joshua a second time around is going to be that much more difficult ,if Klitchkos heart isnt in it 100% this fight isnt going to last long . It will also show Joshua could win no matter where he fights and make him that more comfortable on the big stage .

            But if Klitschko wants the fight then he'll fight where he's told he's fighting, he doesn't get to call the shots (presumably) anymore, he's taking a big payday again and getting another crack at the titles, I think that should be enough for him, it's now a case of building up new fan bases to maximise income,. We'll see though man,regardless of where it is, it'll do well.

              Germany seems kind of pointless from AJ and Hearn's perspective because the German fans watched the last one. from Wlad's perspective it might be his last fight so he'd probably wanna fight there.

              I'd say the US would be my pick, may aswell get them onboard early as possible.

              Edit: Have it in the US, have Wilder on the undercard and then get in the ring to announce fight between them for next year,





              You're right. Joshua-Klitschko 2 should be in the U.S.

              At Madison Square Garden in New York or in Las Vegas

              I don't know what some are speaking of, but perhaps they should do research. Klitschko vs Jennings was almost a sold out crowd at the 20,000 seat Madison Square Garden. And that fight wasn't even a big fight or a fight people were clamoring for.

              Joshua vs Klitschko 2 will definitely sell out tickets in the U.S.

              I agree, Joshua-Klitschko 2 should be in the U.S.

              I live in the U.S., I know people would love to have that fight here.

                  Yes it did suck compared to a indoor arena full of passionate fans! because the noise dissipates into the open air! This is basic physics.

                    The atmosphere for that fight in the uk was spectacular. If there is interest there again I see no reason to move it

                      It is true, but some of the greatest atmosphere's in history have been carried out in stadiums, looks at football fans when they get loud (soccer) to see how loud it can get.

                      A venue win a closed roof feels like it could explode though when people are getting loud so a huge fight between top guys especially in the UK would be great, the O2 is always loud.
