    I think in due course it happens. It makes sense as those like that sort of thing, are the amateur fancy, so may have only generally watched the sport on the old 'terrestrial' channels.

    Hearn has admitted loads of times that he builds the ppv and if he can't make one it won't go ahead, hence why he takes so much stick on twitter for it and he responds to it and tries to defend them, he could simply reply "it's not up to me, it's sky that have decided it's a ppv" for the matchroom cards he is very much the man telling them what should be ppv, don't just make up other stuff and run with it hoping you are right

    sky clearly want a couple of ppv's a year now, i'm sure theyl give eddie some ideal dates for these to happen and eddie will try to plan big cards/fights for them... He doesn't just build a card then sky say 'oh thats on ppv eddie then' ... he HAS to know if it's ppv before because then he can negotiate based on a different budget...

    Which means that he feels this card is big enough for ppv, you have just proved they work together on the subject, I really don't know what else you are trying to say

    Good thinking. I've always found it a good idea to **** off your major source of income by talking **** about them in Twitter conversations.

    Look at the production values that went into Joshua vs Cornish. Certainly no penny spared and was on regular Fight Night.

    The likes of Gavin and Chavez don't cost a lot of money. Putting them on PPV is like putting Khan's return to England against Paul MaCloskey on PPV.

    Its been shown for years and years that fights like Brook- Chaves do not require a PPV format to take place. There is no excuse to be made for this. They are taking us for fools - thinking its ok go go ahead with the PPV despite the main PPV generating fight getting cancelled.
    The undercard won't come together either. There isn't any big fights available. Its going to bomb and i hope it does for the sake of the fans.

    Has the Brook fight been confirmed as staying on PPV? I cannot find anywhere (apart from here) that it is.

    Unfortunately Brook-Chaves wouldn't even appeal to me if it were on regular Sky Sports. Yeah, I might watch it. But I wouldn't be torn up if I was busy that night and couldn't see it until the day after.
