    We don't get all shows but most of the good ones. Mosley/Mora wasn't shown, for example.

    The Khan/Maidana fight, Klitschko/Chisora and a Frank Warren card will be $23 or something. Pretty good value.

    That's interesting, hopefully someone can shed some light on this.

    On another note. Are we actually having a decent discussion on the general forum? I'm amazed... how long can this last until trolls pour in to ruin this thread?

    A Sky subscription isnt free. In itself it can cost £30 per month (on average). Then we have to pay PPVs on top of that.

    And we dont get all your PPVs for free. More and more they are being bought by other PPV channels viewable through Sky which you have to subscribe to on a monthly basis. It sucks!

    I'm sure that if they COULD get a better deal they would, but a contract is a contract. The Klits can't just break a contract because the terms aren't as good now as they were before. The Klits have about a year and a half left on their current contract. I guess Haye could try to wait that out, but if he does his popularity will probably lose a lot of steam.

    Yes, completely can from a business stand point.

    People are just upset because Haye talked a lot of **** and is getting buried for not taking the 50-50. But it's not as simple as that.

    It's not just a case of he's scarred or ducking or is a coward, etc. I think there is more to it then that. It's not like numerous opponents haven't complained about the type of contracts Klit brothers offer. Didn't Adamek say that they are tough to negotiate with?

    Everything is true apart from klit being already locked in the contract!
    50-50 it ain't much to ask for!
    Especially when ur a paper champ.

    You've just said that no matter who Haye fights he would always get the same PPV ratings in the UK.

    Gotcha, I think HBO is like 12$ to subscribe to. Still 50$ is a huge chunk for PPV and you guys seem to have gotten all of those free (Just needing the Sky subscription). You guys get other benefits and services with having Sky subscription too, right?

    Yeah, it seems to be a pretty nice deal. You get at least it seems like all of the good ones. I wasn't going to pay friggin 50-55$ for Mosley/Mora.

    Yeah, I want to be optimistic but if that was the betting line I'd probably take the under.

    Well that is their problem that they have a shitty contract and Haye has a good one. Haye got that himself, Klits have no right whatsoever to ask for half of that.

    50/50 Is a Fare Deal. Haye has to stop hiding and fight vitali in 2011.
