The main support of a Klitschko fight is usually Andy Lee against a lightweight (or Jonathan Banks against a middleweight) with a 1-1 record.
All Haye's fights will be PPV now. Even if he fights a bum noone's heard of. Doesn't make sense for him & sky not to. Unless he can soften the blow with US TV money. Only way I can see haye fighting before a july 2nd date (if it's to be believed) is in the US. Either in late march on regular sky & hbo or doubling up with Khan on april 16th. Or unless sky allow a late march ppv fight 3 weeks before khan... but i'm assuming not as they wouldn't allow 2 weeks afterwords on what would have been the day after a payday for alot of people
Sky and RTL then. Both of them to blame. I am cancelling my sky sub and getting a greek box in can get it all on there for free. **** the ****s.
****ing sky,i cant believe that a Khan- Petersson ppv is going put the Haye-Klit fight at risk what a joke
Has anyone got solid confirmation that Sky approved July 2nd and no oter date. If this is the case they can go **** themselves!
Like I said above you can't blame Sky until you know RTL's position/involvement in all this. I'm checking with a German mate of mine what is being said over there, I notice that Boxrec have the fight down now for 2nd July!
No that's why I said 'if it's to be believed'. It's just what beonte said in his statement on the scene.
RTL approved the April 30 date but Sky wont have it on then because of the Khan fightatschbut really both Sky and RTL are to blame for not getting a date in May/June.
Haye WONT fight twice between now and July, no chance. He should fight Adamek first, then Wlad in September. That the most realistic thing I can think of now. July for me is off. No way Wlad fights Chisora and gives himself 8 weeks recovery and training time for the biggest HW fight in a decade. It's just not happening.
the Khan fight is in April, there should be no issue about another PPV a month or 6 weeks later. if its an issue then put Khan on SNF. He's guaranteed his $1 million+ from GBP anyway.
totally agree i hope some1 from sky reads this, as i always pay for sky ppv + subs, i just wont watch it or any further PPV's :finger
Well done sky!!!! Khan Peterson is a much bigger fight. Real talk! Gutted! Seemingly all they had to do was push Khan either forward or back a month. Joke!
