    They're actually going ahead at the O2 with the undercard. Jesus wept.

    No one giving whyte a chance against fury? Obviously fancy fury...but reckon whyte can make it interesting. One thing about whyte is hes competetive...unless he gets knocked out like he did against povetkin...he always seems to find a way to make it competetive.

    Fury knocked wilder out but pretty sure whyte will be a bit more cagey than wilders...hands down approach.

    Although whyte should fight wallin first anyway.

    This statement doesn't read like an authentic injury statement. It's too wishy washy and posting it at this time of the night makes me think they waited as long as they could, in the hope that most folk will be asleep by now.

    I call bullsht on this, exactly the same as when he failed the drug test which got swept under the carpet too with so much smoke and mirrors that it was impossible to work out what really went on.

    Dillian is a fraud and a fake.

    I have no interest in women's boxing ( besides Elaine Bridges weigh ins)
    Eddie really has changed the game with these stacked cards

    DAZN must be buzzing :lol:

    Eddie has done a number on these fools, he is great at spending other people's money.

    Can you imagine what the people at DAZN are thinking, I wouldn't be surprised if Hearn promised AJ and then he got beat and is the underdog for the rematch.

    Hearn gets Whyte on DAZN and they promote it for weeks and he pulls out and Hearn still goes forward with the show and has a women's fight topping the bill.. Chantelle Cameron not even Katie Taylor.

    Hearn has thrown money at Mikey Garcia and others and they have lost or looked very unimpressive.


    DAZN have no doubt been in consultation with Hearn about PPV because he seemed to know a lot about the situation, they probably had to float the idea because Hearn probably gave them a number for AJ, AJ Vs Fury, Whyte Vs Fury and £8 a month wont cover it.


    Eddie is going to sink this ship and I think it will happen a lot quicker than I expected.

    Come on now, Whyte is levels and levels below Fury if at his best - it wouldn’t be competitive.

    The card is horrific now, absolutely horrific, this is a "big event" and people have paid good money for tickets and DAZN have been hyping it and advertising it..

    Chantelle Cameron Vs Mary McGee

    Craig Richards Vs Marek Matyja

    Khoumari Vs Castaneda

    Babic Vs Molina

    Fisher Vs Terrero

    Elle Scotney Vs Eva Cantos

    Thompson Vs Podlucki

    Hedges Vs Woolery

    Carry Vs TBA



    Surely this can't go forward? I won't watch it, no way, completely pointless, I'm sure over the next day or two if they are giving refunds (which I assume they will to those who want them) they will see the numbers for the live gate are going to be horrendous.

    It's heavyweight boxing, anything can happen but I personally give Whyte almost no chance, he just hasn't got the ability to mix it with Fury,

    Have you seen Whytes footwork? He looks like he is stumbling at times and then he just plods around, his hands are not lightening quick, he isn't the smartest fighter.. I just don't see what he does better?

    He has an outside punchers chance at best, sure the build up will be funny/entertaining because they both talk a lot of crap but inside the ring I just don't see it as competitive.

    £8 per month for DAZN looks to be robbery at this point- whilst I accept pull outs happen who on earth is going to subscribe at that price for that level of card?

    If anybody wants to pay to watch that show without the Whyte fight they want their brain examined. An absolute shocker of a card. Not one thing worth seeing.
    Would have to assume they’ll move the few dozen idiots who don’t ask for a refund to ringside and darken out the rest of the O2.

    "robbery"

    I had no idea Howard Foster was in charge of the subscription payments? :lol:


    It's getting bad for Eddie, things are starting to crumble, maybe that's why Whyte suddenly had a shoulder injury and AJ is running around looking for the Wizard Of Oz.

    Can you imagine the state of all this if AJ loses again and Whyte finally gets his shot and gets battered?


    Eddie is a Conor Benn defeat away from suicide watch.

    They should get Joshua in as a replacement for Whyte, it would be a good tune up fight for Wallin while the Body Snatcher recovers on the Special Secret Sauce.
