    Does it impact on your decision to buy a ticket / ppv?

    If not, who cares? Wait to find out on the night I would, it’ll be so exciting to find out the exact attendance figure!!!

    This guy talks common sense. In fact this might have been lifted word for word from a previous post of mine. Even down to the wording of utter garbage. At least get your own style pal?

    The atmosphere at Wembley is horrifically bad for a sporting venue. Big soulless concrete and plastic bowl. If that’s your bag each to his own but don’t expect to be able to cut anything with a knife or other such skatchroom hyperbole.

    In my humblest the MEN is the ultimate boxing venue, optimum size and shape

    As soon as the ref counts to ten the venue will soon empty . And when joshua eventually comes round and regains his senses eddie will already be in povetkins dressing room signing him up

    If you are sitting in the nosebleeds then you are only there because of the instagram likes. Fact!

    It should sell out by fight night.

    Even if it doesn't they will still sell 70k which is still a ridiculous number.

    Oh I suspect it'll be more or less full up in all honesty.

    Can't say I personally see the appeal in the stadium fights unless you're close but that's largely down to my own poor eyesight and anger at long drink queues. The crowd at GGG-Brook were pretty unbearable. Dogmatically pro-British and just unpleasant to be around.
