    Thought you just meant on Sky mate.

    Eh Day only gives us women's World Title fights on normal Sky unless I have missed one.

    This being non ppv is actually going to cost me more not being a BT subscriber ironically.

    Still not entirely covinced this is going to take place.

    Whyte has beaten the likes of Parker, Rivas, Helenius and chisora twice. Povetkin has beaten the likes of Whyte, Perez, Chagaev and Takam. Dubois hasn't fought anyone near that level yet let alone beat them.

    Are you seriously arguing Whyte Vs Povetkin should be PPV?

    Very good move but unfortunately Fury will probably be on PPV in December. There was always a catch and this was never about “the fans”.

    Good way to manipulate the frank fan boys though

    Ding ding, we have a winner!

    BT (not Frank) want you to pay them monthly rather than just once. It’s a smart way to increase subscriber numbers as their huge investment in WWE has been a complete disaster.

    You’d have to be pretty stupid.

    Wow those are such impressive victories over all those fringe B level contenders hahahaha. Dubois and Joyce would beat all those guys too ffs.

    I can guarantee that there’ll be another half decent show a week or two after (with more scheduled for the following month) to get those that have subscribed just for that fight to feel that it’s worth them keeping the channel.

    Sky Sports, BT Sports and Premier Sports subscriptions a must for all multi sport fans these days.

    All provide good value for money but Sky are somehow still getting away with charging the same subscription price for the plethora of sport lost to BT Sports and Premier Sports.

    The concept of PPV a real kick in the eggs on top of the above but I have no problem charging PPV for non subscribers for any of the above channels.

    To be fair to BT if you have broadband with one of their companies (EE, BT, Plusnet) BT Sport is a tenner a month for the app. £25 a month is steep for the app without broadband but at least it’s in full HD unlike Sky whose NOW TV product charges extra for full HD.

    Have we any idea if Frank will try and get a few fans in for this? It needs some sort of atmosphere.
