    Chisora is going to get spanked

    Dave Allen will be knocked out in spectacular fashion

    Whyte coming in at 18-7 means once again Whyte and hearn are overlooking Rivas, to much talk of wilder. Whyte will be gassed and stopped by the 7th

    When was the last time Fwank Warren put on a 80k+ stadium fight or a Stadium fight full stop, oh yeah, there was that fight at Stevenage FC, who could forget that?

    Hearn might be the ultimate BSing, second hand car salesman but, he gives his fighters opportunities and pays them on time. Hearn has never been taken to court by any fighter his books whereas Warren has had former fighters of his take pot shots at him.

    If i was a prospective fighter in the UK, id sign up with Hearn without hesitation, at least my pay check wouldnt bounce

    I'd say this is the first test of Hearn now though, he picked up a lot from Matchroom when they were having issues now the big stars are old or retired Brook, Haye, Chisora, Bellew, Khan, Baker, Froch etc he has to find new ones, at the minute Matchroom is basically Joshua with Whyte assisting,

    I agree with Tankatron. He's not everyones cup of tea but why anyone would wish him to fail, I don't know.

    Yeah Hearn is great at selling hype jobs out at stadiums and putting puddings on ppv for all the mugs

    Frankie boy keeps it real and gives value for money

    PPV is not obligatory. Wait a week and its all on youtube. Stream illegally if youre that desperate.

    I happen to believe that if youre going to get your face filled in by a world class athlete, you need paying.

    Tonight's pay per pudding event via ticket prices and on PPV is a prime example of why people are turning against Eh Day - the type of person who would charge you to breath the same air as him if he could get away with it.

    Plenty of tickets still available for this.

    12k sold so far.

    Im actually happy with this card (for a change) and looking forward to it.

    The law is clear on streaming - it is illegal to broadcast a stream BUT NOT TO WATCH a stream.

    Imagine if it was illegal with the police arresting 3 million people next week.

    I'll say it one more time for the more anally retentive of you. You dont have to buy the ****ing PPV.

    I on the otherhand will gladly pay my £20 because: a. I can afford it b. I dont begrudge those boys getting a decent payday and c. I actually think its a decent fight card and will likely be good value for money IF the fights go as expected.

    I doubt 12k have been sold.
    My problem is, while tickets are still available, none are available at face value,there all marked up.
    At least when frank puts on shows he has the tickets available at face value when they arent sold out.
    Eddie would prefer to charge someone double and sell one seat than charge a normal price and sell two
