    Whether its on Box office or not, Sky will show the 24/7 series.

    It should be normal Sky, all though they are robbing ****s so I wouldn't put it past them.

    No, it will be on normal sky, I doubt they would get enough viewers for it to be box office.

    If I have to pay £14 odd to see a great event like this or not see it at all, I'll gladly pay the dosh.

    I know all the weight issues surrounding the fight give it a nonsensical theme but this is a massive event. Crazy Zab on the u/c and IF they get Guzman v Diaz too I'll be a happy cat.

    This will take some selling as a PPV, no ****er knows who JMM is over here.

    Recently Sky have shown they arn't too fussy when they put on PPV, but without a very good Brit card before the USA leg I can't see this being PPV at 3am.

    "The guy who beat Hatton 2 years ago vs. some other guy". Tough sell....

    I don't see how they can put it on box office. Neither are big names. It probably wouldn't even sell as many as Kotelnik-Khan!

    I really hope that it is not on PPV and I don't see how they will be able to sell it without a good British card beforehand. Regardless of whether it is on PPV though, I would still pay for it. Considering our good friends on the other side of the pond pay around $50 or so for a PPV, £15 is a bargain.

    That means nothing Chud ? Just saying what they've shown so far. I actuall don't think it will be PPV. Not that late with no British interest

    If it is on PPV I excpect the show to have a starting time at around 9pm in Britain, featuring the Olympians and some good British title fights on, maybe even a world title fight for Mitchell possibly or something? I'm also hoping that Moore gets to fight Martinez on the the undercard over in Vegas!.... that would be worth it.
