    The only way this fight could've been made is on PPV. The justification is as follows:

    1. Groves is a rising star, has dealt with all domestic challenges and is mandatory with 3 of the 4 governing bodies.

    2. Froch demands a high purse, only Box Office would pay him what he needs.

    3. Fight is guaranteed to earn each man £15/20m

    4. Hearn will promote the heck out of the fight. He'll bring George out at the darts.

    5. Supermiddleweigh is Britiain's marquee division and has been for 20+ years.

    They will not earn 15-20million, no chance.

    This does not deserve to be a ppv fight, decent matchup, ppv no.

    That was just an example, obviously. Do you have any idea how many people watch darts on Sky Sports? Thought not. It's a lot.

    1.
    Groves hasn't proved anything in the grand scheme of things, he is a prospect.

    2.
    What he needs? What he wants more like...it suits all parties involved to have it on PPV- short term gain, if Sky refused to put it on PPV then it wouldn't matter what he wants, he wouldn't be getting it.
    3.
    :patsch

    4.
    He will promote the fight for one reason and one reason only- to maximise his profit- the same reason it will be on PPV- greed and no long term interest in the longevity of boxing.
    5.
    Heavyweight is the marquee division, always has been and probably always will be
