Would Froch v Kessler sell out the O2?

Yes, it would.

 

no it wouldn't.

 

If it gets the exposure it deserves then it might. Eddie has his work cut out

 

Yeah I think It would, I would certainly go.

 

I think it would a lot of boxing fans are from London.

 

Yes. Matchroom have loads of London fighters to help shift tickets although probably won't be needed.

 

Yes

I'd imagine quite a few Danes will come over for this as well

 

What's the capacity?

I'd go.

 

yes easily, it would have been @ city ground, but MK doesn't want to go to Nottingham

 

Indeed, i'm sure there were over 5,000 Danes in the crowd for Calzaghe v Kessler fight.

Sky would also hype the hell out of it and Matchroom have a few big London ticket sellers to call on if need be as well.

 

whats the views like at the o2 compared to nottingham arena, echo arena or manchester arena (the 3 arenas i've seen boxing)

 

Yes easy,Froch would bring around 10000 fans if he was fighting a nobody.

Lots of boxing fans from around the UK would travel to watch it.

Also Kessler would bring a few thousand as well.

 

Is the Nottingham Arena 10,000 capacity? It was full for the Bute fight but it wasn't an instant sell out. I remember Kessler brought quite a few fans to the Calzaghe fight in Cardiff so you'd think he'd bring a few to London. And its maybe more likely to attract general sports fans and the non boxing set in London too since this fight will get a fair amount of hype in the build up. So if even if it ain't full it wouldn't be far off it you'd think.

 

No chance! London is a notoriously hard boxing sell and Froch is barely known outside of Nottingham. He doesn't even fully sell out the Capital FM Arena. Doesn't bode well.

Shame, cos it's a fantastic fight :bbb
