    The Millennium Stadium's capacity is 74 500, could Joshua vs Pulev sell it out?

    Yes.

    I have a lot of Welsh friends who are not even into boxing who are planning to go and see it, it's big news.

    Joshua can sell out any stadium in the UK.

    Yes because AJ is a huge draw and can sell out in arena or stadium in the UK.

    AJ could fight the pope on Christmas day at Wembley and sell it out.

    Yes. Although Cardiff isn't ideal as hotels and transport is pretty awful. I saw a gig at the stadium a few years ago and only 'room' we could get was a tent!

    Joshua sells out anywhere in the U.K.

    Yes, Cardiff is a great place for boozers.

    I think so, AJ does insane numbers all things considered.

    Course he will, will also have a very good undercard on as the main event won't go five rounds.

    I don't think it particularly matters who Joshua fights. In the U.K he is a huge draw on his own. He could sell out most if not all stadiums in the U.K against even the poorest of opponents.

    Anything with AJ in will sell out at this point

    I don't know. What I do know is if Joshua can sell out the Millenium Stadium against Pulev then he can sell it out against anyone as Kubrat brings pretty much nothing to the table numbers wise. He has no real fan base and isn't seen as a genuine threat.
