    Acer would hold 25 000 I think Pretty sure it holds 20 000 when the entire floor is used for basketball or whatever i would think you would fit maybe 5000 on the floor. these figures are from memory and i might be wrong but def 20 000 plus a couple more

    I read somewhere Green has promised 60,000 to Roy. Anyone see this happening? Obviously if it's indoors then it simply can't happen, but consider barry hall on the under card.. 40,000 - 50,000 perhaps? I'm not so sure.

    Barry Hall on the undercard will be of little consequence relating to stadium numbers in Sydney. He might drag 1000- 1500 extra bums maximum. PPV might increase in the Southern AFL states..

    If they want 60,000 in the stadium, better let Khoder take care of the tickets. There is simply never going to be a gathering of 60,000 Sydney paying customers to a sporting event.....

    Why would you host it in a place like Melbourne?
    Sydney is the Australian Capital of Sport.:rasta
    I'm pretty sure they said the winner is Sydney..?

    You deaf Ranser? The Olympic announcement was clearly:
    'and the winner is Sinny'.

    Serious note, Melbourne not only have the sporting venues, we actually turn up to them!

    The stadium at Docklands Melbourne with the retractable roof (I think it's called Edihad this week) holds 54,000 in AFL football configuration. In a boxing layout most of the playing surface could be utilized as well.

    This stadium has already been filled to capacity for a number of different sports including AFL, 'A' league soccer and rugby union (Aus vs Brittish Lions).

    We could probably get 20,000 along to the world marbles championship!

    I don't think Perth has enough electricity to hold it.

    Left in a cab from Perth Casino Nov last year same time as they let the crowd out of the Rianah & Chris Brown concert next door. Spent a bloody fortune in the cab before we got 100 metres in the car park.

    99% of the crowd were half dressed bimbos so it wasn't a complete disaster - but our wives kept kicking us for perving!

    Conclusion though: not sure if Perth can handle a crowd!

    I consider places like Perth, Adelaide, Darwin and anywhere in Tasmania as a bit backward in handling anything remotely important like a super boxing match like this.

    Sinny, sorry Sydney is firming:

    Announcing the event, NSW Premier Nathan Rees said a number of "pre-fight build-up" events were planned, including appearances by both boxers and public sparring sessions.

    "This will be the biggest fight ever staged in Australia and it will be beamed to all points of the globe," he said.

    couldabeen mate it is a done deal the fight will be in Sydney at the moment I am thinking acer because this fight as big as it is wont outpull the mundine grren fight which was just under 30. unless there is a big turnaround it will not be outdoors. i am spewing because I thought Perth might have been a chance but not anymore
