May i thank Eddie for this PPV with a main event which although may be enjoyable, means sweet FA in the bigger picture God bless you Edward
You'd think the fellow could at least spell, what with his public school education and all that. A nothing fight though, 20 quid on ppv?
Eddie keeping boxing going atm. This fight was already scheduled to take place and was always gonna be a ppv. I'm just glad we get the fight and it's not delayed any further unlike Wilder v Fury or Joyce v Dubois which don't look to be happening anytime soon unfortunately. Chisora v Usyk is an intreaguing fight but hopefully the card will be bulked up with one or two other good clashes!
I’ll be cheering big Del Boy on but he’s not got a crowd behind him, he feeds off the atmosphere. He’s going to get out boxed and stopped here. Usyk will end the myth that he doesn’t carry power (at heavyweight).
Finally! Looking forward to seeing if Usyk still has it. If he does then Chisora is made for him and could be a one sided beatdown
Chisora will be game for 5 rounds but gets stopped not long after Hearn is a bit cheeky making this a ppv in this current climate
For all that we give Whyte stick for his PPV status, nothing quite tops the sheer accomplishment of Mr Hearn convincing the British public that Dereck Chisora is a PPV main event fighter. The absolute definition of a domestic level fighter if ever there was one, whose career best win is against a guy whose claim to fame was that he lasted 10 rounds against Joshua when everyone thought he’d get knocked out in two.
Bit different though. Chisora has never been a ticket seller (much like Whyte) but that is offset by the fact that he sells PPVs so less of a risk for Hearn. With Dubois v Joyce, there’s no guarantee it will do decent PPV numbers, so Warren needs a crowd to milk every penny out of it he can. But even then, I’m not convinced that fight sells enough tickets to open the top tier of the O2.
