    Yet wasn't even on Sky Sports for his last fight and couldn't even manage a measly 50'000 buys at 15 quid a buy.

    You think Floyd is going to fight in the UK? If this happens it will be at the MGM

    :patsch Wow, you really know how to read and asnwer a question eh Blizz? :roll:

    To answer, no. Not in 24 hours if it even sells out. But I would expect a high attendance either way.

    You know what, this could be a genius marketing ploy. People seem to be forgetting that Khan's home patch is actually Wembley and he could draw from millions of potential fans.

    A clever cunning plan indeed. He's not called Money for nothing is he.

    Depends on the pricing model they try to use for a stadium like Wembley. I doubt Mayweather uses his usual model which is to cut scalpers out of the loop by charging premium for his tickets then eating the empty seats. So assuming they use a more agreeable pricing model for it, then it sells out within 24 hours.

    Put Froch in the co-main event against DeGale/Grooves and open with Fury-Harrison.

    They could, and IMO will sell-out Wembley with a decent co-event next year sometime.

    Mayweather is not thinking about Pacquiao, or Martinez, he is looking for a safer option and Khan is the answer.

    90,000 seats? That's a lot to fill period, let along in one day. Completely depends on the pricing they use like Atlanta said. If they use the Pac/Clottey ticket model, quite possible.

    Mayweather isn't as "huge" in the UK as some might think.

    who the hell is this blitz?

    and why do people think Mayweather will fight in the UK? He is going to continue to fight at the MGM he is not leaving Vegas

    :lol: OK blizz...whatever ****...:patsch

    And it's called a HYPOTHETICAL QUESTION. You're the first, and only, dumb**** on this thread to go there.

    And for the record, Floyd has talked about fighting there before. Of course, you probably didn't discover floyd yet when he said that.
