Jamie McDonnell is ‘Making History’ live on Primetime

Apparently, it's because this is the first world title fight to be held in Doncaster.

 

Shittttttt this is literally going to be one of the biggest flops in ppv history. Shame really because you have to give hobson props for having the balls for such a small time promoter to put on a fight of this scale.

I'm guessing boxnation wasn't willing to pay hobson what he wanted to show the fight. Can't blame boxnation really, I'd rather they saved their budget to screen an international bout. No one would watch this over the burns fight.

 

:rofl

 

Witter sparked Harris in Doncaster, that was for the WBC.

 

aye if u set the price it would be 16 quid not 11.

don't shirk this issue as if PrimeTime normally offer good value.

anyway, this is perfect timing for PrimeTime to show up and unite all the Boxnation and Sky crews into 1 common hatred for PT :yep

 

:bowdown:

 

Correct me if i'm wrong but haven't sky been showing this guys career so far?, if so why aren't they showing his world title fight.

Been having a look at the Mexican he is fighting and he looks like a brutal puncher, could be a good fight and i'm sure i'll watch this some way buy maybe not live.

 

To be able to box on Sky, you have to do a deal with Hearn first, Hobson obviously thought, nah **** him.

 

And when another promoter approaches Matchroom to get a look in at Sky they have to be very very very nice to Edward, and then just maybe he'll have a whisper in Adam's ear. Unfortunately not many promoters fit so snugly into Edward's backside as Coldwell.

 

Feel sorry for the lad!! I hope he has a big turn out anyway, good luck to him

 

Is this going to be in HD?

 

Rolf's mind was on other things that night.

 

£11 to watch Jamie McDonnell all the while Ricky Burns is on sky, behave. I like McDonnell but this isnt going to do 1000 buys

 

Well not really, why has he put it on the same night as Burns? Of course its not going to get on Sky.

As that article states, Hearn has put McDonell on a sky card previously.

Also, why didnt he give it to Boxnation for a whatever they would pay for it, he will make more money and get more exposure for it than on Primetime.

He will get less than 1000 buys on this seriously minus whatever Primetime are charging him.
