They have the opportunity to break julio cesar chavez guiness record attendance of 120,000 people in mexico.

It would have been the biggest ever if Joshua hadn't been slapped around the ring like a b_tch against Ruiz.

Definitely the biggest ever.

Though it doesn't exist but a 200k capacity stadium in London won't be enough for the crowd.

The way thinks are going with the virus I doubt we get AJ Pulev before a crowd in June.

There is no indoor stadium that can hold 200K. Maybe 120K in the millenium or Wembley if they put seating all over the pitch.

But ... virus doubts withstanding, I see the fight going for the most money and that maybe Vegas of Saudi Arabia

In England maybe but then Lewis vs Bruno was more compelling

[Marvlus Marv]

Not as big as Audley A-Force Harrison vs David Price. Nothing will surpass that.

Imagine this being the reason you're a boxing fan....

Frazier vs. Ali

Foreman vs. Ali

Tyson vs. Spinks

Tyson vs. Holyfield

Lewis vs. Tyson

Both are great fighters but Fury has yet to defend his titles. He does have the better wins on his resume than Joshua in my opinion simply by dethroning Klitschko & Wilder but other than that he has beaten Cunningham, Hammer & Chisora twice. Joshua has beaten Klitschko, Povetkin, Ruiz, Martin, Molina, Breazeale, Whyte, Takam & Parker. I would favour Fury in this fight. I think Haye may be getting ahead of himself by saying it's the biggest HW fight ever. I have been watching HW boxing since the late 80s when Tyson came on the seen so I have seen some pretty big events. Rid**** Bowe / Holyfield, Holyfield / Tyson & Holyfield / Lewis were 3 events that I would put as much bigger fights. Nobody in North America outside die hard boxing fans really know who Joshua or Fury are. It's the biggest HW fight in UK history but not ever. It is hard to put any Joshua or Fury fight in with some Ali, Holyfield & Tyson fights. These guys were known worldwide even to casual boxing fans. People who didn't even watch boxing knew who Mike Tyson & Ali were. I'm Canadian so I'm not biased towards any fighter. My favourite HW was Frans Botha & currently it's Johan Duhaupas. I just don't see this event having enough of a buzz outside the UK to call it the biggest HW fight ever! I wasn't around for the Ali era so I can't actually say what kind of buzz the big fights created but from my era this fight is not even in the top 3 in my opinion.

It will be the biggest boxing fight ever staged in Europe, and the biggest heavyweight fight since Holyfield vs Tyson 'It is bigger than Lewis vs Tyson' only due to the stage they where at in their careers etc

David Haye since his retirement, seems to have a inability to critique anything very deeply 'He will just praise whoever is winning, and pump up whatever is going to happen' I have said it before? The Bellew defeats are still effecting him.
