Is the Haye card good enough for PPV?

    We have Haye v Ruiz which is more of a homecoming than a spectacle

    With 2 Commonwealth title bouts which would normally appear on FFN

    After that a pretty poor undercard

    What is 'enough' for PPV. Presumably enough to the people that matter is if its enough to sell. And lets be honest main events sell the PPV not undercards which is unfortunate for us die hards.

    My opinion is its pretty damn weak for a heavyweight title fight. In times gone by you'd see AT LEAST another world class fight on the bill. To me thats what its lacking mainly.

    But look at the Klit card last week, it was woeful. Worse than this. We seem to be getting away from stacked cards in an effort to cut costs which is unfortunate.

    Not the best of cards but i'll still pay for it.

    I love seeing the amount of hate warren gets on here even though he is the one with the best cards these days.

    The fact that it's the first heavyweight title fight for 10 years in Britain sold it for me.

    The undercard could be Ricky Gervais vs Grant Bovey for all I care.

    However, I quite like the undercard. Bit gutted that Woodhouse and Quigley vs Samuel are no longer on the bill but still some good fights.

    Groves vs Adamu will show how good Groves is.
    Olusegun vs Lynes is 50/50 in my opinion.
    As ever, will be good to see Jamie Moore.
    Not seen much of Dilks but thought he was unlucky vs Adamu.
    Aint seen Maguire since the setanta days (Lindsay undercard in Belfast where he looked awful) however he's had a few fights since according to Boxrec and has won. Is he with Maloney now?

    this is a sauderland fight too right like the valuev fight ?

    that means its probably free to air on german RTL and if you point a sat dish to germany you can get it free to air in the UK so NO of course paying for it is crazy LOL

    Not a bad undercard great to see jamie moore on it who I believe is a good fighter and definately gives you value for your money.

    No. Average defence with an average FNF domestic undercard.

    I'm just hoping Haye blitzs him and Groves dominates aggressively.
