Carl Frampton vs Scott Quigg main event Anthony Joshua vs Dillian Whyte Liam Williams vs Liam Smith I don't think the third one would be realistic because i think both are with w4rr3n. I think the top two fights could be put together. Dillian Whyte was on the Frampton undercard last time out.
Would prefer something else as chief support, that fight is fine for the third last one though if the show is a ppv
Pub or mates house, not worth the money Frampton vs Quigg is a very good Sky/Boxnation/ITV main event. It isn't PPV material..
Disgraceful. Frampton v quigg never a ppv fight. I remember when ppv fights were solely for big fights. Now their just promoting fighters better to sell them as big time fighters. Actually liked matchroom to start with but its now becoming apparent what their business model is. Seems their only happy showing 70/30 match ups at best without ppv now. Disgraceful considering the cost of sky tv. I dont mind spending money on boxing but cleverly v bellews is a normal saturday night fight, good undercard or not...lets leave the ppv's for the mayweather v pacquiou type fights. Even froch/haye/hatton etc should only have been ppv for the really big ones imo.
Most fights are 100/0 match ups nowadays. Look at Anthony 'The Can' Joshua. Ten fights, ten wins, zero punches thrown at him and a good fart would have knocked down all ten opponents.
The problem is as soon as joshua steps up to a decent level it ll be onto ppv for him. Your sky money basically covers watching him beat up on people who have no chance of even hitting back.
I realise it is no excuse but I ordered the farce that was Bellew Clev 2 so I would certainly order this,I think it. Will be a good fight.
I don't understand why so many ppvs are being thrown around. I was at both froch - groves fights so obviously didn't order them, but most of the lads got together at a pals (whose got one of those dodgy boxes) and watched it there, because they weren't too keen on the price & that's the case with a lot of ppl. Next one I'll be with the lads & not paying a penny! I pay £80 a month for sky TV , I'm in the forces & barely use it - sole reason I have it is so I can watch the boxing , so I'm not about to start paying more - if anything I'll be binning it off & grabbing one of the boxes !
They are not ripping off subscribers. You subscribe SKY Sports, not SKY Box Office. Boxers need to earn a wage, in an incredibly hard sport. And if it decided monies can be made by making a fight PPV, it make sense to all parties, to do so.
Sky Sports subscription includes boxing and the promoters are paid very well without the greed of PPV. The Sky model would collapse if PPV was imposed on other sports so boxing should be no different just because the tommy tanks pay PPV for boxing.
Did not realise professional boxers boxed for free atsch Always thought that the top boxers were millionnaires, the mediocre earned at least the minimum wage x 10 and the poor boxers were paid for fighting . in addition to their paid employment. :?
