    The anticipation was great for the main event, but the actual night itself was awful in terms of entertainment. I was bored for every minute that didn't involve Burton and Shinkwin.

    Pro bet laying Quigg on points was the main reason for watching and expecting a good fight.

    Was fearing the worst after the first 2 scores were announced.

    Very disappointing fight

    :lol:
    A competitive trade fight for an area title would have broken up the monotony.

    £17 for that ??

    Quigg is Euro level and Frampton is fringe World level and neither are World champions, just two decent fighters who each own a big leather belt with some gold colored metal on it, not World champions.
    Rigo is the only legit World champ in that division.

    So glad I just listened on the radio and didn't waste a single penny on it.

    Wasn't great to watch at all but that greedy c a n t Hearn will continue to stick fights on PPV until people stop buying them.

    I disagree with the PPV model and I never have or will pay for one.

    However, you can't blame Hearn for what happens in the ring. It was a big and intriguing fight on paper.

    Can't blame Hearn for the guys not engaging. It was a fight everyone wanted to see and most expected a barn burner. Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't the ****e card down to Barry demanding cyclone had to promote it?

    Stacked PPV cards are the way to go imo. At least there needs to be a world level fight as chief support!

    no it weren't as at least the Bellew Clev undercard had some decent names on it, the undercard for this was ****ing dreadful and the main event weren't much better

    Didn't pay, didn't watch.

    Not forking out for that. Eddie can fork off.

    PPV's should be reserved for genuine World title fights, not an upper domestic level snoozefest like what we got on Saturday or Bellew/Clev etc.

    As long as people keep paying conmen like Eddie this farce will continue.
