    Definitely not.

    Impossible to argue otherwise.

    That fight isn't the measurement for judging whether a fight is PPV worthy otherwise the vast majority of fights would be.

    Yes. Not in terms of prestige, but as far as business goes? Most certainly.

    This just goes to show just how strong this current HW scene really is when the 5th best hw against the 10th best hw is considered a monster ppv fight.

    I had no problem with Froch - Kessler being a PPV.

    Just because you talk **** outside of the ring does not make you a PPV fighter. If that is the case Derry Matthews should be a multi-millionaire.

    I need a good undercard to buy it, but for the casuals it is a easy sell, probably easier than Haye-Harrison.

    that's not why its a PPV though is it? its a PPV because its one of the biggest fights that could be made in the UK. Its a fight between our two top HW's both of who are highly rated by rankings agencies.

    Quigg - Frampton should be PPV then?

    The fight shouldn't just be big in the UK, it should be big worldwide. This isn't.

    People are being taken for mugs.

    Not worthy in my opinion, my reason: i'm paying £10 a month for Boxnation and for that i'll have mayweather vs canelo!!!. £20 a month for sky and i get decent domestic fights plus world level fights... Haye hasn't fought in a year

    Nothing is ppv worthy, you've already paid for skysports/boxnation. Why on earth would you pay twice?
    Anyway, even if that were not true, this fight certainly wouldn't be worth the expense.

    I'd have paid £15 for Amir Khan vs. John Prescott. 50/50 fight in my opinion.
