    Two British HW Kings

    The GOAT Tyson ''The Gypsy King'' Fury

    The greatest entertainer, salesman, and fighter ever born from their mother

    In ''the home of boxing'' Great Britain

    The epicenter of HW boxing Great Britain

    In front of the ''greatest sports fans on the planet''

    A staggering 94,000 of them

    Which will not only break the the British attendance record

    But it will break the European one too

    It doesnt feel like as big as it should to me, it's hard to get up for this fight when its against frillian, when it should coulda been a massive all uk affair fight for all the belts. Meh!!

    Now we're left with this, it is a bit of a let down, but yeh it'll do tidy numbers,probably.

    I live in Odaiba (lovely area, but set up more for tourists than living). I work in higher education: public and private sector.

    Can't really say more than that:lol:

    can wembley hold 100k? That's a big stadium regardless! Crazy event, you folks are gonna have a blast! If it were 50 bucks here in Canada I'd buy it, but it's not.

    It’s a massive event and the biggest ever fight held in Britain,however the winner of Fury v Whyte against the winner of Joshua v Fury for the Undisputed fight would be an even bigger event as well as also being a lot bigger on the World stage. Fury if he wins and indeed does retire after the Whyte fight will be back next year for the Undisputed fight against the winner of Joshua v Usyk we all know that !

    In terms of atmosphere, your going to see how big of a star Fury is now come Saturday night.

    I'm predicting stadium wide chants of "Fuuury" ahead of his walkout. Frillian is going into the lion's den for sure.

    Still up 75% in the last 6 years... if it keeps rising at this rate, it will soon be even more expensive as the insane US prices.

    No it hasn't lol.

    It used to be £20, or £25 for "bigger" fights.

    Now it seems to be £25 for more fights but still get some at £20.

    Spence vs Ugas was like £14
