Khan vs Brook at football stadium?

[lefty]

Hear reckons it would sell out Bolton Wanderers or Old trafford.... What do you think? Not sure im buying the demand would be that great http://www.BS.com/brook-on-ami ... m=facebook

Personally I think not. The difference between the Reebox & Old Trafford would be about 50,000 so what a strange parallel.

outdoor stadiums bring so many restrictions.
Got to be out of season - when many clubs re-lay the pitch.
Weather ?

[Parson Cross]

Pynes - he obviously thinks Khan needs home advantage !
Hillsborough ?

Hearn seems to be massively overestimating the draw of a Brook-Broner fight, PPV and in a stadium isn't going to happen, it might fill the Sheffield Arena but nothing more. The Reebok holds 30,000, with seating on the pitch it would be closer to 40,000, no chance a fight with Khan sells that out either.

I agree that the fight isn't as big a draw as Eddie seems to think it is.

I actually think that Brook-Broner would be bigger than Brook-Khan. I think Khan is damaged goods. Maybe im being naive though.

A Khan fight would sell, but it would do a lot better if Khan picked up a decent win and both started shouting to the rooftops about it. The MEN would be big enough for it, no need to look at outdoors where's there's a short time window when the MEN holds 20,000+.

I agree Brook-Broner is actually a bigger draw at this stage ticket wise. Would do similar numbers in PPV

I think you are both right. At the current time Khan is damaged goods. It isn't just the losses, its the nature of them and he needs to go out and prove that a gentle breeze isn't going to put him over. Once he has re-asserted himself against quality opposition then the fight could be absolutely huge.

If I was Kell I would busy myself with the mandatory IBF shot and see how Khan fares in the mean-time.

[WelshJack]

I think it does atleast 30k as it will be huge here.

[brian13]

I don't see it being a football stadium show. The MEN holds 22,000 and would be the better option.

[Autobarn]

doubt khan fights brook without a world title.

anyone feel brook only wants to fight at home?

2 good showings recently, don't want to see kell's potential wasted.
