  • I'm from the US but the UK is on fire

    I watching the lead up and this place is BIG! They say they'll be 80k people there. AJs last fight was 90k. I dunno what it is but AJ seems to be the leader of ppv and seats.

    Unlike in the US, UK boxers are heroes there.
    Hatton was the same.
    Hell, even Tomato Khan fills arenas.

      For some reason Saturday evening has always been a dead zone for UK TV. You fill that void you clean up. Only trash talent shows are on. Theres no sports, have a late premier league match that finishes by 7pm. People in pubs, clear space on TV, everyone watches a Joshua fight, hes got no competition

          How is that any different than LeBron James , Jordan, Kobe and Tom Brady ?
          What's more sad is the Kardashians are celebs.

              Eddie is trying to do the same in America but a lot of “boxing fans” seem to hate the idea?

              I really don’t get it, maybe he won’t succeed but if you get the same sort of atmosphere over there for some fights everyone’s a winner!

                We seem to have a different culture for supporting our fighters.

                  UK only 5 dollar ppv while Canelo in the US selling $85 ppv you gotta step your game up OP.
                  When they sell seats in UK Stadiums its also cheaper. Meanwhile you got celebrities buying 50k seat tickets in Murica. UK is poverty.

                    I would hate to be around 80,000 drunk singing idiots.
