    It's not a PPV for subscribers, they'll get all the fights as normal.

    It's for casuals who don't follow boxing week to week and might just be interested in one off fights like a Mayweather/Pac fight or the Chisora-Fury rematch.

    So rather then going through the hassle of subscribing for a month, they can just pay for an individual fight that catches their attention and do it easily using the Sky PPV service.

    It's actually a great business move from Boxnation as they've probably got all the hardcore subscribers they're gonna get now so it's just another form of extra income on top of their income from Subscribers.

    It won't be such a great move if they lose subscribers who consider the ppv option better for them then they end up for what ever reason not buying £120 worth on ppv per year

    Think it'd a clever move. Prob charge the same as sky for Ppv (14.99). Tho us hardcore fans still pay the £12 a month and we usually get a good card every week. Can't complain about that!

    Exactly.

    It's just aimed at casuals who only see a few boxing events each year and would rather just pay a one off fee rather then subscribe to something even though that's much better value for money to do that.

    I'm looking fwd to it to be honest, mainly to see how much progress Del has made and to really see how genuine Fury's chin is against a much improved Chisora.

    It will be interesting to see what this Chisora will do but believe it or not I see a lighter Chisora struggling badly against Fury. In the first fight Chisora was overweight but matched Fury for strength, since his weight loss his speed has improved but his strength has declined imo, i see Fury sapping dell boys energy and stopping him late.
