        The Wilder fight will be huge assuming both win their next fights and promoters stop messing around to let it happen later this year.

        Whyte shouldn't be used as a barrier to hold this fight off. Whyte is only a name for having a schoolyard feud with Joshua and getting knocked out by Joshua. Other than that, they'll continue to say Wilder needs to fight Whyte so the British public will know him.

        Just make the fight happen after Joshua and Wilder both win!

          It's still confusing how he can sell this number of tickets and the live gates are always around $10 million.

          Are tickets prices regulated in the UK? Somebody from the UK, help me out. You'd think they'd start raising the rate a little.

          Awesome for AJ though. Eddie winning again. Should be a good scrap.

            Joshua,what a draw..it kinda gives hearn reason not to give wilder even 40% lol when Joshua draws huge crowd against an unknown new zealander and wilder can barely sell out his backyard..he'll be given 40% maybe because he holds a title and has a marketable record to the casual audience..providing they win their next fights

              I'm not speaking from a place of any knowledge of prices there...however I could easily see a promoter saying "let's f'ing sell a massive amount of tickets to get buts in seats to build your popularity...to the public, all they know is "there were 70,000 people there"...that means more in the general public headlines than the live gate...

              but yeah I'd be curious to know.

                They are probably not priced very high for the majority of the seats, to pack the whole house in.

                  I'm just curious because, if they are, we need that **** here lol some of the tickets prices are crazy imo (for good seats). I'd love to pay NBA or MLB prices.
