You could put on a realistic ppv

would try

Khan vs brook
Dirrell vs groves (if sauderland allow it)
Quigg vs Galahad
Joshua vs Audley (publicity wise rather than anything to really help AJ's career)
J McDonnell vs his mandatory (can't think of a "name" for him to fight yet)

 

That card unfortunately would never happen as good as it is, pretty much all those undercard fights could headline their own show on standard sky.

 

Why does it have to be PPV ?

The world's gone backwards when the legitimate question for a promoter becomes "how to sell my limited fights to a dwindling moaning audience?" ... (or however you stated it.)

The legitimate questions for a promoter should be "how to develop my fighters into commercially viable box office stars for a mass audience" .... OR .... "how to secure and sign the services of legitimate star fighters".

Things have gone seriously wrong with this boxing business.

 

Froch v Ward
Froch v Golovkin
Froch v Stevenson
Froch v Hopkins, maybe

^ Those should be realistic PPV material

 

Even though I think its bad that this is PPV it will be a much better fight than say Froch vs Groves 2 was. I think sometimes its not necessarily the quality of the fighters even though they are both world level but the fact that the fight will be very good and there is a genuine dislike which will make the fight interesting. With a stacked and competitive undercard I think this could be good value for money, hopefully there are not too many mismatches on the undercard just to showcase a fighter. This fight is not PPV worthy but I still believe it could be a good night of boxing

 

Quigg vs Frampton
C.Smith vs Fielding
Joshua vs Thompson
McDonnell vs Kameda
Flanagan vs Cardle

 

Quigg v Frampton
Bellew v Cleverley
Coyle v Campbell
Macklin v Murray
Joshua v Audley

That card would be worthy of PPV in my opinion but not a chance of it happening I admit

 

you,ve nailed it

id pay for that gladly

 

The difficulty with 'ideal' PPVs is that a lot of the fights we've mentioned would headline a sky date with a poor undercard. Once PPV is divided between all these fighters, will they earn more of less than they would headlining their own sky date?

It has to be worth it for the fighters. Frampton and Quigg has genuine interest and they will pull in the viewers and the live gate, therefore they're going to split the Lion's share. What does that leave for the likes of Bellew and Cleverly or Murray and Macklin? If the PPV card is successful enough that everyone mikes a huge payday then great but I just don't think it's economically viable unfortunately

 

suppose if the fights at Wembley in front of 80K or so, its a good chance to get some new fans and a likely career highlight.

a big PPV with say a million sales at £20 = 20mil, + ticket sales of another 5mil, with radio, sponsors /+ foreign TV added on there should enough to pay a half decent amount for the undercards.

 

Wouldn't be interested In paying for Froch vs Ward, boring fight and Ward wins all day long.

 

I think Fury v Chisora,BJS vEubank and Skeeter v Gavin would be ok

 

A few from right through the weights

HW - AJ vs Lucas Browne
CW - Bellew vs Clev
Skip LH
SM - Groves vs C smith OR P Smith vs Fielding
MW - Murray vs Macklin
LM - Rose - L Smith

Stick Galahad vs quigg or frampton in
Campbell vs Flanagan

Never happen, a wet dream of a card for me - not in a million years

 

Brook vs Khan
Groves vs Degale 2 in a unification bout (depending on if george wins the wbc title which i think he will vs dirrel and if Degale wins the IBF title from froch which i can see happening. degale is all wrong for froch.)

Galahad Vs Frampton
Murray vs Macklin
Campbell vs Coyle
Joshua vs Chisora.
