Not a big betting man but just got a hunch .
If Terry O'Connor is the ref then there is no chance of a DQ. After watching him just warn Matt Skelton about 30 times for all manner of misdemeanours in the first fight with Danny Williams I'v come to the conclusion that someone could take an anti aircraft gun into the ring, fire it at the opponent and still all O'Connor would do is say 'no more of that please pet. BOX ON!'

Nowhere near.
What was then ?
Biggest ever crowd was for the Len Harvey v Jock McAvoy rematch, 90,000 at White City. Will probably never be beaten.

That's a really difficult question.
But it's not difficult to say that this ISN'T the biggest because there are loads which were bigger. (Depends how you define bigger, I suppose).
Benn-Eubank II was bigger.
Bruno-Witherspoon
Minter-Hagler
McGuigan-Pedroza
Bruno-McCall
Cooper-Ali II
Hatton-Zoo
And so on...
Don't get things out of perspective - it's two blokes coming off losses fighting to be something like fifth in the world, if that. It's just got silly billies hyped up because of the WWE bollocks.
Who's third and fourth in your opinion?
There's no doubt this is a big ALL British HW fight... as big as Bruno v Lewis?
Third and fourth heavies? Actually goodness knows...Povetkin for one. It really is uninspiring fare, isn't it?
Nowhere near as big as Bruno v Lewis, IMO.

You're right about being uninspiring....., Povetkin doesn't fill me with complete confidence either.
Although not as big as Lewis v Bruno it's still a major all British HW fight, the biggest this century!
Looking at the HW rankings, Pulev vs Helenius would be a decent scrap

Having only watched a couple of Chisroa's fights, can anyone tell me if he has ever been dropped, stunned or put on wobbly legs?
