    Still no 100% confirmation yet, only speculations. According to the Eddie Hearn Twitter account it's somewhere in London so that keeps Wembley and White Hart Lane (Spurs are not playing home that weekend) as options.

    I don't think theres a press conference today is there? I thought the press conference was next Monday when tickets are out.

    WHL isn't big enough. Plus the rancid smell of the dirty ****s who visit every week would put casual fans off.

    90k + a few thousand floor/pitch seating.
    It will have to be well priced to sell out nearly 100,000 tickets

    My guess is it will sell around 70k seats.

    I'm debating if I should make the trip down south for this or just watch it at home.

    Wouldn't have thought the whole stadium will be used, would make for some horrendous views. More likely they will only offer up half of the permanat seats as well as all the floor seating. More likely to be around the 60k mark I reckon.
