    Thanks, Eddie. Thanks a bunch. :roll:

    That's progress. In pro sport it's Sky or bust. It's just the way it is.

    You have to be a shill.

    How on earth is that card worthy of being PPV?

    Nope. I haven't even got Sky.

    The market will determine Eddie's rise or fall.

    Well Hearn is the only one that is currently keeping British boxing going. I don't see FW or Hennessey churning out any cards or upcoming fighters now? Hearn is the only one doing anything good. If you don't see that then you are an idiot

    i'll cancel my sky for the summer I think, no football, no champo league, every decent boxing fight on ppv, not realty getting value for the £40quid a month I'm spending on this

    if quigg Frampton gets done, than that's another PPV,

    Yeah man thinking the same, theres been a few good ones with Pascal Kovalev and we got stevenson last week but ****ing PPv for any decent matchroom card is just a waste.

    Stevie Wonder could see that. He could also see that he is taking the p*ss with it, too.

    Who is dumb enough to keep paying for PPV's?

    Anyone who pays deserves to be conned.

    There's always gonna be 2 ppv shows a year on sky. He couldn't make the fights he wanted like brook khan, degale groves etc, so he has to put sumtin ppv. It is a great night of boxing to be fair. But tbh it should just be 4 different sky sports shows

    Erm... Maybe a bad example is Warrington, he's actually quite entertaining..! At least he's turning into an exciting fighter....
    But yeh totally agree with what your saying in general.

    John Ryder would be my pick for most boring fighter, never a bright moment!

    I'm not knocking Warrington. He seem's a top lad, and I said many moons ago that he is the next Hatton (Nelson kept saying it yesterday on Ringside!).

    My point is that because Warrington draws in the crowds, Eddie will whack him on PPV even if he is facing nobodies.
