Sky should put Haye/Fury on same bill as Froch/Groves as a Doubleheader now!

    Makes sense and that would be worth PPV for sure. Gives Haye enough time to heal the cut

    Nice idea but it doesn't really make financial sense with 20,000 tickets sold for each show in the same arena. I can't imagine Hayemaker/Hennessey or Matchroom wanting to give refunds on that scale.

    Any of you know what the situation will be with the tickets?

    If it's postponed, will the tickets that have already been bought still be valid for the new date?

    Tickets valid for the new date and refunds available for those that can no longer attend is the usual way postponements are handled.

    I doubt that Froch or Haye would agree to this as they'd both like to be last on. It'll be difficult to schedule two PPV events so close together and in the run up to Christmas. Remember that Henessey has dates on Channel 5 to fill as well.

    Wouldn't be able to happen, there would be no way to sort the tickets.

    It would be great but wont happen, to much money to be made from having the fights on seperate dates and events

    Couldn't afford to pay for both fights if they were on the same one either, unless Haye and Froch were okay with getting paid half they were gonna get paid

    It makes no sense. They want to generate as much income as possible.
