So where will the Ruiz-Joshua rematch finally take place?

[smashup]

Where's all this "no atmosphere" stuff coming from? Who was cheering and clapping all through the Khan fight then? And what about the Groves-Smith WBSS final?

Did they use photoshop and fake clapping for the TV? ()

You honestly trying to claim either of those two nights had an atmosphere anywhere near what you'd get in the UK?

The Khan fight was like a morgue and the Groves fight wasn't much better.

Obviously the atmosphere wouldn't never compete with a UK fight, just saying it looked and sounded like any normal place from TV, that's all. I agree it's a nightmare place for UK fans.

The worrying thing is that fighters are ALL gonna want a piece of this extra money that Arab & Emirates places can throw at events pretty much unrivalled, the money they can front up makes Vegas look like Oxfam.
The days of Our top fighters fighting at Wembley or Cardiff could be numbered.
Why would they fight on home soil when they can earn shitloads more in places like Saudi Arabia?

You can't blame the fighters for wanting maximum $£$£ especially given their lives are on the line with every fight.

It's gonna be interesting to see how this all pans out over the next few years, Hearn was saying that other Emirates countries put in bigger bids to host this fight, Dubai, Qatar etc.
