By Scott Gilfoid: Tickets for IBF heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua’s first defense of his title against American Dominic Breazeale (17-0, 15 KOs) sold out in an incredible 30 minutes earlier today for their clash on June 25 at the O2 Arena in London, UK. The O2 has a seating capacity of 20,000 seats.
That’s a lot of tickets to be sold out so quickly for what amount to be a mismatch. The 6’7” Breazeale arguably isn’t even the 5th best heavyweight in the United States, and here is getting a world title shot.
