    This is why Eddie has a nickname'Fast Car".He can get away from the scene really quick after the fight.

    Pathetic joke on PPV

    So long as the fans dont buy this they cannot continue putting ridiculous PPV.

    This is a joke no doubt about that. I thought sky learnt that continued ppv just devalues the whole concept of super fights being on ppv.

    Hearn deserves criticism but also it's sky who decide this as well. Hearn can't do a ppv without sky's blessing.

    Cleverley v Bellew is to blame. That fight doing decent numbers on ppv has convinced matchroom and Sky that you don't need world titles or big names to stage a successful ppv. The problem with this however is eventually the audience will be burned like before with Haye v Harrison and then Haye vs Klitchko which killed the ppv business for a while.

    He probably has a turnstile in each room in his house that makes you swipe your card details before you enter and after you leave.

    I would have been happier if a solid World title fight was added to the bill (Brook v Chaves etc).

    Maybe some people care about the health of the sport and think this isn't the right way to go about restoring it to former glories.

    PPV for domestic dust ups is part of a race to the bottom. Hearn won't care as he'll have made his millions but as fans we have a right to be unhappy about it.

    Somebody should start an organised campaign on social media to boycott this.

    I would imagine that the potential number of people buying it is low to begin with, a proper concerted effort could damage the buyrate enough to stop fights like this being put on PPV again.

    Just a thought.

    Not to mention "there will be more about the history between this pair of bitter rivals as the fight draws closer"

    I think lots of people know this is a poor card and won't buy!


    I like Eddie but this is a poor move! After the regular shows on SS1 being very poor! And Klit vlad! Dec 12th never should have been PPV
