Thank you Wlad, Thank you Britain!

90,000 people in the stadium. The UK is the home of boxing, no other country could generate these numbers.

 

I am so grateful there was no injury or any other cancellation. Now please let this fight not be a let-down. Hopefully we see some big bombs landing and a big KO win for the better man. That's all I am asking; doesn't matter who wins the fight as long as our sport is a big winner!

 

I really hope AJ can do it, he must stay away from that leaping left hook that pulev was caught with otherwise its goodnight.

I'd like to see us get atleast 5/6 rounds worth of entertainment

 

I like both guy's and it will be sad to see either loose, I just hope its a great fight and both fighters give a good account of them selves and they both get cheered out and earn everybody's respect win or loose, I don't want to see either of them get sparked out early in embarrassing fashion.

 

with Klitschko in AJs head i dont know how this is gonna go, got AJ to bite at the billionaire tweets, got him to bite at the just a "puncher" quote and AJ switched his mike off in the head to head yesterday and told Klitschko hes gonna "hurt him"...hoping he does win it but must say, it would be intriguing to see the reaction if he loses

 

British boxing will go into mourning if Joshua loses.

 

Wembley is a big outdoor stadium isn't it? Every time I've been over to London, it been more often than not, cold and rainy. What's the weather forecast like for tomorrow?

 

Julio Cesar Chávez set the record for the largest attendance for a boxing match—132,274—at the Estadio Azteca for his fight against Greg Haugen in 1993.

Mexico is the home of boxing.

Tunney vs Dempsey 2 did 104,943 in America. And in 2013 Chudinov vs Navarro did 170-200,000 in Volgograd, Russia.

Hmm, just looked up some more figures. Zale vs Pryor did 135k in Wisconsin. Oh, and Chudinov hit 100k again in 2014 against Bouadla. Dempsey vs Carpentier hit 90k. Louis Schmeling was 80. Wlad did 50-60k himself three times against Haye, Fury, and Chagaev. Pacquiao did 51k vs Clottey back in 2010.

 

I'm talking here and now, with events being held safely not people jumping over fences to get in. Not Gene Tunney fighting 90 years ago.

That Chudinov thing is ridiculous, it was part of some open air motorbike event that was held every year. Unless you think 170k people would turn up to watch Chudinov

Germany has been posting good numbers in the Klitschko era.

 

Amen!

 

Don't matter what the forecast says, it'll be cold and rainy...

 

I live just down the road from the stadium, have done all my life, Wembley itself is a dump but it's improved tons over the years. Days like tomorrow or fa cup clashes it's always buzzin around here, even some of the crappy local bars will be rammed for it.
Weather tomorrow is cloudy but no rain due

 

My thought exactly
