    Of course bodybuilder vs USyK.

    Fury already beat street fighter two times. Third bout is unnecessary.

    All three fights should have been on the same card.

    I'll watch all three. Not paying a dime though.

    I considered buying AJ-Usyk for £25 but it will probably be on tinternet the next day. Anyone know any good free commentary as an alternative?

    I wouldn't pay to watch whyte
    Ppv historically was for big stars not bums

    Out of principle I will not pay for the other 2 fights, as I'm not happy they aren't fighting each other

    Fans should have boycotted Floyd and Manny's fights and I guarantee they would have danced much sooner

    I basically treat DAZN as a ¥2000 ($20) PPV platform, but with the bonus of a month of extra sport.

    The Fury v Wilder fight might be on the Japanese WOWOW Satellite channel. But I'm not sure my apartment building can access that. So things get more complicated to actively watch and pay for those cards.

    I like to listen to Boxing Wave on YouTube, for a more neutral take.

    If you are looking for a Joshua fan perspective, I'd go with Boxing Beats and Rhymes.

    Both will likely do the whole card, unless they are going to be there in person.

    I understand your point about what should be PPV.

    But the Joshua fight is as much about seeing him as it is about seeing Usyk fight him, which is a fight I've been looking forward to for a few years now.

    It's a good fight in normal circumstances for sure, but isn't the fight I want

    When Floyd and manny refused to fight, they had cotto, mosley, canelo, marquez etc. But people paying for their fights gave them reason to dodge

    I understand your point completely mate, but I already said I won't buy another fight of these 2 if it isn't against each other,unless they lose

    Winner! :applaudit:

    Don't forget your thermos of weak lemon tea. It might get chilly this weekend.

    But if you're feeling really adventurous...

    Yeah, that's fair enough really. The Mayweather Pacquiao situation was a stain on the sport for years. Should have happened after Pacquiao laid out Hatton.

    Exactly, but certainly after the cotto and marquez fights
