Anthony Joshua's Fight With Wladimir Klitschko On Course To Set Attendance Record

Boxer Anthony Joshua’s Wembley Stadium showdown with Wladimir Klitschko is "on course to break all records after the first batch of 50,000 tickets were snapped up," according to the Scotland DAILY RECORD. Promoter Eddie Hearn is "aiming for a post-war record crowd" of 90,000 for the April 29 clash. Hearn has permission to sell 80,000 tickets and will request authority from London Mayor Sadiq Khan to release another 10,000. The second batch of tickets will go on sale on Jan. 16 and Hearn believes gate receipts could generate a record £8M ($9.9M) (DAILY RECORD, 12/20).
