    Payper-view.

    EH: Yes. You see there are fans that dislike pay-per-view but what it does is present opportunities to make crazy fights and Brook vs. Broner is my idea of a crazy fight. Fans would turn around and say ‘where the hell did that come from?’
    Pay-per-view creates a revenue stream capable of bringing a fighter like Broner over here to fight one of our own for a world title. In the U.K., Brook vs. Broner is an enormous fight. Brook vs. Khan, between two Brits, is an enormous fight.
    At the end of the day the winner of Alexander vs. Khan would be obligated to fight Kell anyway. If Khan wins he may elect to fight Mayweather in a unification fight, which would supersede his mandatory, but I don’t see that happening.
    I spoke to Amir the other day and when you look at the numbers for a pay-per-view fight against Kell, with a gate of approximately 30,000, there is no bigger fight out there. If he really believes he beats Brook then he has to take the fight.

    PPV is not the way forward...Eddie / SKY will have to make the same mistake again.

    I know mate but it is def the route they are taking i think.

    Lets be honest Groves v Froch and Brook v Khan are much more PPV worthy then Fury v Haye.

    Yeah look's that way.....strange though but I guess it depends on the fights but then that comes down to opinion.

    1 name doesnt make a PPV nor one fight IMO so there needs to be a good undercard and overall show.

    I dont like any of those match ups as PPV....

    Groves, Brook, Fury IMO are not PPV perhaps in the future but not now.

    Your right they are not right now in our eyes in terms of stature but if people will pay to watch them on a ppv card...then they are PPV. Only way it will stop is if people dont buy them, Eddie seems to say though that if there is no PPV, there are no 'Big' fights. That is more worrying to me, imagine if we showed our hand by not buying it, the PPVs flunked and then Eddie said 'well, we cant afford the best fights' and served up shite for the remainder of the deal?

    As if Broner would fight Brook if his best win is Senchenko
    All lies as usual

    I didnt think PPV's were part of his deal with SKY? ah well I certainly wont be buying them, even though I enjoy watching all of the names mentioned. Damn it maybe I'm going to have to give in to Boxnation after all!

    He fought Gavin Reese didnt he...

    Broner will fight Kell if the money's right and with PPV Hearn could possibly make it happen.

    He fought Cabbage Rees to try to get to burns and make a PPV with burns.

    That's true, Im guessing Rees didnt get paid much and Brook clearly deserves alot more as he is a much bigger name and accomplished alot more!

    Do you not think his decision would be somewhat more influenced by how much money they offer him than whom Brook's best win is?
