Golovkin vs Lee Thomond Park

Post by Aaronide_ger »

Lets say that both Lee and Golovkin win their bouts, Golovkin goes on to challenge Canelo/Cotto winner in May while Lee will probably have another bout in Spring.

Late 2016 when GGG will have bigger worldwide popularity, do you believe they can fill in the Thomond park in Ireland?

Yeah definitely. I'd imagine any British boxing fan worth his salt would make the short trip to Ireland to see GGG.

Nah they'd move it somewhere else a few weeks before if a big domestic fight can't fill it nothing will even if its GGG

Can't see GGG fighting anywhere but the States after he sells out MSG in October & certainly not if a fight with Cotto/Canelo ever gets made.

Lee will never fight at Thomond Park given how badly this one flopped.

Golovkin's Manager said that they will fight anywhere in the world, as they are building GGG as a worldwide star not just a USA Superstar.

Their Main focus is USA but I can see GGG going to Ireland for a Lee fight (Since he has a title) and fill in a stadium.

indeed, I'm sure I read it that he would have been happy to come to the UK to fight Froch.

I know it could be talk, but him and his team strike me as they actually would literally go anywhere to fight the right fights and I guess based on his ability and domination at the moment...why not! :TU:

thomond park will fill for any irish champion ,let alone a limerick champion collins v eubank was in cork in munster banged, i think any title fight would have a huge crowd in limerick,they love there sport there. but lee v ggg would be huge atmosphere wise
