    I hope this is just Dereck running his mouth to draw attention to the card and sell more ppv. Surely he knows the game well enough, and i suspect this is the case.

    He is fully aware how good the main event is and the quality Taylor and Prograis have.

    Delboy is right, he is by far the biggest draw on the card.

    Taylor is not known to the casuals, especially in London, and Prograis is virtually unknown outside of hardcore boxing fans.

    Del and Parker should at least be getting paid as much as the main, as they’re shifting the tickets and Londoners aren’t turning out in droves to watch two relatively unknown 140 pounders even if undisputed is on the line. British event goers don’t care about that.

    I whole heartily support anyone who has a go at Eddie Hearn to his face.

    Dereck is right though

    You go down a rabbit hole if you try applying everyday morals/values to boxers, Jurgs.

    Right or wrong he is speaking up for what he believes in. He doesn't play along with the bulls*** I respect that about Del Boy.

    That’s probably how Haye justifies his cut...extra services.

    Those boys had a point though, at least two titles are at stake.

    Chisora and Parker will be going life and death like whyte and Rivas were for nothing

    at this stage of his career pulling out of a big fight like this that he has signed a contract for would be suicide

    It's a crying shame but, Del Boy does talk with an element of truth regarding the lack of profile that Taylor and Prograis have. If the fight goes as expected though, that could change overnight as Taylor v Prograis has got FOTY potential all over it.

    The Jocks need a Ricky Burns replacement aswell as he's well and truly over the hill now and not far from ending his career. Taylor will fit the bill perfectly if he wins the 3 belts and the Ali trophy. I just hope Taylor proves to be as good as I think he is as for me he has P4P potential and has the frame to move up to at least 147 and make some noise there.

    Chisora could very well be just making headlines to sell more PPV, at which point, he'd be more than justified in asking Hearn to add to his Rolex collection, boxing is ultimately about making money after all.

    Win or loss next fight -Taylor is a great fighter and will fly the Scottish flag as World Champion for years.

    Going to take an elite fighter to beat him and many on here think Prograis has that potential.

    Cracking fight and I think Taylor has a great chance here with that hand speed.

    Chisora is getting above his station. Not a chance Chisora v Parker alone sells out the O2 and does strong PPV numbers.

    According to Chisora, Eddie is earning 14m from the AJ fight?? I wonder what is that a percentage of though or if that is before all expenditure.

    No wonder he agreed to Saudi though. Jesus.

    Ruiz earning 10m.
