    A Summer World title could mean a Stadium fight for Frampton

    Is there a ground big enough in Northern Ireland - Is Windsor Park or one of the Rugby grounds big enough?

    Could he do well in Dublin, Cardiff, Liverpool or Manchester?

    Where would you put the fight?

    Nobody outside of Northern Ireland would care. Chances of filling a stadium in England? Zero.

    Don't be ridiculous.

    • Windsor Park - 18,500
    • Ravenhill (Ulster Rugby) - 11,400
    Nothing big enough in the North

    Croke Park - Dublin - 82,300

    Put Macklin v Andy Lee as main support and pack the bill with Irish ticket sellers

    Yes but luckily Frampton has a massive fanbase in the North and down South, he could easily pack 20k + into a stadium in Ireland or fill Windsor if he fought their, not many English fighters can sell anything close to 20k tickets.

    You haven't got any other fights to get excited about which is why you are all willing to come out and support Frampton.

    It's pretty simple.

    If all the best amateurs from Ireland actually turned pro it's be a different story, Ireland would be a force no doubt.

    I don't consider a proper stadium attendance to be 20k or so personally.
