Anthony Joshua and Wladimir Klitschko fight at Wembley Stadium on April 29

London mayor Sadiq Khan brought together officials from Network Rail, Transport for London and Wembley Stadium to ensure a 10,000 increase in capacity for the fight.
That means the contest for Joshua's IBF title and the vacant WBA 'super' and IBO heavyweight crowns on April 29 will be seen by a post-war record crowd of 90,000.

The Carl Froch-George Groves rematch at Wembley in 2014 currently holds the post-war attendance record with 80,000, Joshua vs Klitschko Live Stream while 90,000 is the all-time British record figure; set when Len Harvey fought Jock McAvoy at White City in London in 1939.

I can't wait to see the fight of the year here in London and it's fantastic that a post-war record crowd will get to watch it at a world-class venue like Wembley," said Khan.

I'm delighted Transport for London and Network Rail have pulled out all the stops to make this happen so we can move 90,000 people around the capital quickly and safely.

Like me, they have recognised the Joshua vs Klitschko Live Stream importance to the capital of staging this epic showdown of the best two fighters in the heavyweight division and I look forward to our great city staging more great fights in the future."

I want to thank Wembley, TfL and Brent Council and particularly Sadiq Khan, who has fought our corner to ensure a capacity crowd will get the opportunity to watch this event live in the capital," said Eddie Hearn.
At the boxing writers' dinner last year, Sadiq urged me to bring the biggest fights possible to the city and I'm delighted to have the biggest fight in British boxing history at Wembley Stadium on April 29.

THE scale of the Anthony Joshua vs Wladimir Klitschko heavyweight world title fight is staggering. The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan confirmed that the capacity for the live event at Wembley Stadium has been expanded to 90,000 seats.

Eddie Hearn, the promoter, revealed the level of demand to Boxing News. “When we sold the last ticket online for the last batch we had 34,000 people in the online queuing system trying to get tickets. Joshua vs Klitschko Live So if you’re working off an average of just under three [tickets per sale], that’s another sell out there with people trying to get tickets,” Hearn said.

Froch-Groves was obviously an eye-opener but we’re a lot more advanced than we were when we went on sale with Froch-Groves. Now we can monitor things to see the actual size of the demand. Things like online queuing systems and stuff like that just shows you the pure demand. It’s incredible. It’s not an exaggeration, we could have sold it out all over again.

I think this could be a little bit of a one off, who’s to say Brook-Khan couldn’t achieve the same numbers as well.”

Ticket sales are an indicator of pay-per-view buys. “I think it will break all records on UK pay-per-view, which is held at around 1.15 million,” Hearn said. “Don’t forget if it’s at the O2 it’s 16,000 so you’ve got 74,000 more people in the arena, who would be buying it on pay-per-view. I just think the fascination of actually seeing 90,000 at a fight at the national stadium, I think that’s part of the fascination.

Groves-Froch did mid 800,000s, so I think with Joshua’s profile and Klitschko, I really think this could break all the records.
The IBF champion's unbeaten record will receive its most stringent examining when he opposes Klitschko, the second-longest reigning heavyweight title-holder ever, live on Sky Sports Box Office at the national stadium on April 29.I tried to play it down, I'm quite like that - 'It's only another fight'," Joshua told Sky Sports News HQ.

Eddie Hearn of Matchroom Sports Promotion recently said in an interview that the next intended goal after Anthony Joshua potentially beats Wladimir Klitschko, is to go after Deontay Wilder.

Per Boxing Scene Hearn said, “Wilder against Joshua can be built into a huge fight. Two undefeated, fast, big-punching heavyweights. But I think at the moment, the pure focus, because of the toughness of the fight, has to be Wladimir Klitschko. You come through, and it’s no turning back, it’s big fights only.”

Politically, boxing is always difficult, because there are so many different governing bodies and so many different mandatories that inevitably at some stage you are forced to give up a belt, rather than have them all under control of one heavyweight.The fight for me to close the year would be Deontay Wilder against Anthony Joshua in one of those barnstorming Las Vegas nights.

Barry Hearn,I think the fight we would all like to see and assuming that Deontay Wilder can do a little better on his own promotion, because he's not a big enough draw in America, let alone outside.
