Wembley’s Capacity May Be Expanded for the Usyk–Dubois Rematch

Promoter of IBF heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois, Frank Warren, has outlined ticket sales for his fighter’s bout against WBC, WBA, WBO & IBO heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (23-0, 14 KO):

“Right now we’re at about 78 thousand tickets sold.

If we reach roughly 84 thousand, give or take, then we’ll apply for 94 thousand. That has to be done in advance, so we’ll only do it when we’re confident we can fill every seat.

We’ve still got a little time to make that decision.”

94 thousand is Wembley Stadium’s maximum capacity. The rematch is set for 19 July; detailed statistics on the fight can be found at the link.
