'The biggest fight in British boxing history' according to Eddie.
He's booked the biggest stadium and wants to break the British boxing attendance record.

Will he be disappointed or will he pull off a major sporting coup?

It won't come to that. It will sell as many as TFL allow it.

I honestly don't see this fight doing anymore than 40000 - There's just not enough casual interest in Groves/Froch than there was in Ricky Hatton. I'd like to be proved wrong but I can't see it.

I wish I could get a bet on it being over 40,000. I would put my life on it.
