According to the a recent ESB article the fight (if made) will take place in either Frankfurt or Düsseldorf Frankfurt: Capacity (for football) just under 52,500. Personally I wouldn't want the fight to happen here, it is a very busy airport and acts as the main hub for other carriers from other continents. 7 miles from the city centre This content is protected Düsseldorf: Capacity (for football) 51,500 and it does look better for a boxing event with its more slopping stands. City centre is 5 miles away from the airport. This content is protected However given that Düsseldorf is in the North Rhine-Westphalia region of Germany that means Dortmund is close by with that stadium holding well over 80,000 with slopping stands and a direct rail link from the city centre going directly to the stadium. Only reason I know this is because I was at the Germany-Scotland game back in 2005 (I think) and it was certainly effective in terms of efficiency and money. This content is protected from the nearest airport into Dortmund city centre a taxi takes 20-30mins tops, at that time I think cost something like 40-50. A crate of beer cost 30. The good news is the German season finishes in the 2nd week of May so a date in at the end of May shouldn't be too difficult. From a personal point of view I'd prefer it if it either took place in Dortmund or Hamburg mainly for access reasons and debauchery :good:rasta
should have said I never checked the forum before posting as I was checking out the venues and posted info as I went along!! this is ****ing tragic!!
