Where do we think the Froch-Groves rematch is gonna end up?
Where do we think the Froch-Groves rematch is gonna end up?
Im hoping London for obvious reasons but it looks more likely to be up north or in Nottingham.
Re: Where do we think the Froch-Groves rematch is gonna end up?
I reckon it could be at Wembley......

There's an england game the night before though right? That might derail that!TopGun wrote:I reckon it could be at Wembley......

Eddie thinks he can fill 70,000 so I cant see it being in Nottingham it just makes sense to have it in London.

I have a hunch it's the Emirates although I would say that I'm an Arsenal fan.

Its not Wembley. Its already booked up.
It sounds like the Emirates or Old Trafford are in the front seat.
Groves wants Chelsea and Froch wants Forest but neither are big enough.

Ideally the Emirates, simply because of the design of the place, it would make even the crappest seats have a decent view. Old Trafford is just too big, you'd be miles away from the ring if you're up in the cheap seats - and they wouldn't fill it.

do you reckon? the lower tier is very shallow, not the best of views...MarkMcBurney wrote:Ideally the Emirates, simply because of the design of the place, it would make even the crappest seats have a decent view.

Re: Where do we think the Froch-Groves rematch is gonna end up?
yeah it has to top hattons homecoming and clazaghe v kessler so it will have to be a big venue i think if they do old trafford they could probably fill it.
Re: Where do we think the Froch-Groves rematch is gonna end up?
Old Trafford or Hampden park I reckon.

Boxing at football stadiums always looks shite to me. The views for 70% of the tickets must be shocking. I know its more about going to the "event" but for someone who actually wants to go and watch the action, well, it just seems cack.

You have a point Lillywhite. Carl wants City Ground so that's 45k tops. Fast Eddie wants a larger attendance.
I was lucky to be up close for Ricky's fight at the Etihad but wonder seriously what a lot of the attendance actually saw.
