World heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua continues to be the biggest draw in international boxing history.
Joshua, who is going into his 20th fight in the heavyweight category, has set another record.
70,000 tickets have already been sold as Joshua seeks to extend his unbeaten run against Kubrat Pulev.
The much-anticipated fight has broken the previous crowd record of 63,000 for an indoor fight when Muhammad Ali fought Leon Spinks at the New Orleans Superdome, US, in September 1978.
