    July 13th at the O2 - Massive fight Joyce vs Dubois on BT Sport

    July 20th at the O2 - Terrible fight between Pudding Whyte and a Colombian Midget on PPV

    How does any Hearn fanboy defend this?

    Warren is clearly owning the Domestic scene this year, with Saunders fighting for a World Title, Warrington vs Galahad, Yarde vs Kovalev and now Dubois vs Joyce all to come in the next three months on regular TV subscription

    TBF I don't think anyone has really defended the Whyte fight being PPV

    Great fight, respect for Frank for getting the fight made and to both Dubois and Joyce for putting there '0s on the line, I can't pick a winner yet!

    100% getting tickets for this

    And so it shouldn’t.

    I don’t see this as newsworthy to be honest.

    Dubois is 13th with the WBO, not ranked by any other organisations and #47 with Boxrec.

    Joyce isn’t ranked by any of the organisations but #16 with Boxrec.

    PPV shouldn’t have even been a thought.

    1 fighter ranked WBC 1st, WBO 1st and WBA 4th vs a fighter who is WBO 5th, IBF 7th, WBC 10th and WBA 6th. You effectively have a top 4 fighter vs a top 10 fighter.

    Or

    A fighter who is ranked WBO 13th with WBO against the vs the unranked commenwealth Champion.

    I like both fights but it's clear which one is most likely to be PPV standard and which one that isn't. Hearn would get an unbelievable amount of stick if he tried to made the 2nd fight a PPV fight.

    @PaddyGarcia look at the two posts above if you want to see people defending Whyte Rivas PPV

    Could have easily been on PPV considering Bellew and Toe got 2 bags of PPV loot.

    No one said this Joyce vs Dubois fight should be PPV, yet you came in banging on about how it shouldnt be PPV because of their rankings. Obvious you are trying to make the Whyte vs Rivas fight look better by bringing up their rankings.

    Who on earth thinks "Im not gonna pay for this fight cause fighter A has a certain ranking on the website Boxrec" lmao stfu

    Everyone can see through your posts

    Is there any word of the Fury fight yet? Got a feeling it will merge into a ppv with warrington v galahad...

    There has to be praise for a domestic fight between two prospects to not be on PPV nowadays?
    The bar has been set pretty low here.

    I don't think either are defending it. Mitch is saying one is more likely than the other but I don't see he's suggesting it ought to be
