More demand than an England home football match.
British boxing has come back bigtime in the last 12 months and you gotta give Eddie Hearn respect for raising the bar.

Not even Eddie went that far ;D
He's a breath of fresh air in my book, funny guy and pretty cool with it.
His youtube interviews with Kugan Cassius are quality, loves a swear word and just comes across like normal fella.
He must be like a pig in shit too, what is he ... late 30s ? Absolutely caked in money , a massive fight fan anyway which is no surprise with a dad like his and in a position where he can match make all the fights.
Must be like a real life fantasy football team but in the boxing world.
I wonder how far he can take Matchroom and whether he can get to the point of getting some big US fighters in his stable?
He's got time on his side and what he's done already in such a short space of time is fucking impressive.
He's crushed Warren for sure already and already is giving us Britains biggest ever fight and probably the biggest in the world for decades.
All joking aside, who are you picking in the rematch?Quote:

Actually didnt Chavez have a huge fight in a stadium in Mexico , 130k or something like that.
Yes he did, Hatton got 55,000, Galzaghe 50,000 and Benn v Eubank must have got 30,000 at old Trafford.Quote:
