    As a businessman would you expect any one else but the customer to have to pay more?

    not saying I’m happy with it. If anything I’m angrier at Sky than hearn tbh as they are the ones setting the budget.

    Or you could tell fighters they fight for the money thats on offer?

    Or sit earning nothing

    Wow so you want the fighters to fight for less and have took the beating Warrington took last night.

    Other promoters take your fighters and we get even more limited fights. Most boxers would tell him to get lost. We get left with the likes of Kane Baker fighting.

    most big fighters have minimum purses in their contracts

    Dont wow me like your such a caring guy lol

    Thats life right now, millions not even earning so apologies if im not shedding a tear if Dillian Whyte doesn't get PPV payouts

    You act like they are being paid really poorly

    And look i think a fighter should make as much as possible but theres a pandemic going on and people are struggling

    Concessions should be made

    This card will not have Dillian Whyte on. It’s about having 4 or 5 big fights and having the means to do them

    Saturday night fights then?

    And Dillian Whyte was used as an example and a good one

    Lets see if Hearns big fight description is what us a fans would class as one

    Or tell them to fight more often.

    That's the real issue, I understand that we're living in unusual times but even before that inactivity was and is a huge issue in boxing. If top boxers fought a minimum of 3 times a year there wouldn't be domestic level fighters like Dillian Whyte or Chisora refusing to fight unless they're main eventing a £20 PPV.
    More fights = more paydays = less greedy demands

    Give every fight over to Box Nation and get every fker to subscribe.

    That content plus all the repeats and interviews would be well worth £11 or £12 a month.

    Dream on though.

    Seen a few people speculating on twitter, the cards they are coming up with are superb. Forgetting Hearn hasnt put on a good PPV for about 4 years.
