    Wembley fights seem all the rage at the moment with klitscho vs fury, brook vs khan, froch vs GGG and Degale vs groves all rumoured to be happening at Wembley.

    Which ones best?

    Froch vs GGG
    Degale vs Groves
    Brook vs Khan
    Klitschko vs Fury

    From the most entertaining and most even to the least entertaining and least even in my opinion.

    Your half baked poll is lacking the correct option of 'None, Wembley is not a venue to watch boxing in'

    I wouldn't watch any fight at Wembley. It's a joke venue for watching live sports let alone boxing.

    I'd watch all of those fights on telly at home though, but from personal experience (Froch Groves II) there is absolutely no reason to pay to watch on the big telly inside Wembley.

    My view is that Eddie's plans to have big fights at Wembley depends on whether there is a revolving door of 70,000 mugs who would pay huge prices to watch a TV screen above the ring.

    The Nose v Groves fight at Wembley sold 80,000 tickets but only 55,000 seats were occupied on the night with 25,000 left on Stub Hub and in the hand of touts outside.

    My seat was about 10 rows up on the half way line in Tier one and the view was gash. The same could be said for the the majority of seats on the pitch outside the inner ring area as people stood up on chairs etc.

    I would certainly not pay £500 plus for an inner ring seat so would not return to watch boxing at Wembley and everybody I talked to on the night were of the same opinion.

    The design of Wembley is not good for Boxing and the fights would be slightly better viewing at the Emirates or Etihad Stadiums.

    We have 2 great arenas at the O2 and Manchester where the big fights should be held. If not big enough there is one side of the O2 which could be extended to accomodate the largest events.

    Wembley is shyte for boxing and the fans know it.

    wasn't really looking to start any discussions about whether stadium fights are good or bad etc, just wanted to know which fight people were more excited to see

    You mentioned Wembley which immediately dampens any excitement.

    Fury v Klitoris for me

    Why did you ask "which wembley fight would you rather see?" then?

    Maybe delete this half baked thread and ask the question you meant to ask in the first place, whatever that was.

    Has to be Froch Golovkin for me would be an absolute war with Golovkin stopping Froch mid to late imo.

    Brook smashing Khan's glass chin would be great.
