Would the upcoming sky ppv be worth it if Brook was headlining it?

    Brook against a good name opponent maybe. I assume you mean the card stays the same, but with the extra Brook fight. If you also had Quigg vs Galahad then it would be nice enough.

    i'd be happy with that, im ordering the fight this weekend anyway but I think if Kells first defence was on there as the main event it would be fair enough

    Bellew vs Clev because of all the genuine hostility involved is a good fight to help make the card more interesting, I think most peoples problems is that its the main event when it was never meant to be

    Most peoples problem is that the undercard is stacked with names but none of them are fighting known fighters, there are no exciting fights to look forward to.

    Yes there may turn out to be a couple of *******s but looking at the undercard it's pretty underwhelming.

    Im pretty certain it would have been Brook - Bundu in which case I would say yes.

    Not for me no. I'm not denying that the headline fight (Bellew/Clev) is a very appealing fight but in my personal opinion IN THIS COUNTRY, PPV should be soley reserved for big big fights. Aside from Hatton vs Floyd/Pac - The only fight in the last ten years that warranted PPV was Groves/Froch

    Where the Ppv model in us is quite normal for fairly big ish fights its still not adopted well in uk
    Few reasons, maybe a lot of the undercard fights here arnt as big or cos the domestic fights arnt as big and ppv worthy
    Only ppv fights I believe have been worthy of ppv over here in recent years were froch groves and froch Kessler
    Brook Khan would be a big one,
    Undecided about cleverly v Bellew but guess rivalry makes it ppv worthy.

    it'd definitely make it better assuming he fights someone half decent. I would still of re-arranged the undercard and had a few more 50/50 fights rather than the mismatches currently on offer though

    ezactly my point, half the uk undercards are ****, and the big name fighters, fighting **** opposition, don't warrant ppv.
