    On the plus side if this is a PPV then the May 30 card won't be - tbh reckon this could sell at bramall lane/macron stadium

    Thought he mgm was sold out for it, eitherway he was headlining whilst USA fighters like Thurman and charlo were on his undercard so he's doing something right.

    according to the main forum broners tweeted something about fighting him, and though I'm a kahn fan I'd be ****ed off if he fought broner over brook and so will a lot of other fans

    Didn't look sold out from the tv shots tbh, then again if the tickets were cheap it wouldn't mean much I guess

    Broner would be more credible in some ways than algieri except he's gone back to 140

    Absolute bull about there being only 55,000 in the stadium. The only empty seats during the main event were in the top 3 rows of the upper tier from what I could see.

    You talk some shyte mate.

    Ask anyone who was actually in the stadium - thousands of red plastic seats visible all around the stadium..

    The touts lost a fortune on Groves v Froch 2 as al the tickets were sold but only about 55,000 people in the stadium for the fight.

    There was only about 5,000 watching Anthony Joshua fighting the Can

    the floor seats and lower tier all seemed full to me,

    wembleys a 90k stadium + 10k people in floor seats suggests there should be 20k empty red seats which looked about right from where I was on the pitch.

    There was nothing near 10k on the floor mate - lucky if they sold 2,000 tickets for the floor but could have been up to 4,000.

    Loads of empty seats all over the stadium but yes lower tier more full than upper tiers.

    Both are northerners so I would have thought Hillsborough, Bramall Lane, but more realistically Old Trafford and the Commonwealth Stadium seem more logical.

    Old Trafford is a good shout but would be better at the more modern Etihad stadium even though the capacity is lower.

    I thought Eddie hearn said there was offically 80+ plus thousand actually in the stadium? That's what he said in i film. I'm sure if the stadium was half empty it would have been obvious 55k has got to be bull****

    Eddie is only interested in ticket sales and all tickets were sold. Go back to the threads at the fight time and you will see many comments about masses of empty seats and not just in the areas where there were no ticket sales.

    The touts bought thousands of tickets and lost a fortune.

    Propunter you must be living a very sad existence to still be beating that drum nearly 12 months after the fight.

    Ffs if it will make you feel better we ll all pretend there was 20 thousand tops there...
