    Why didn't they add Degale Bute to the Fury Klit ppv? Even if they also showed it on regular sky sports they should have added it for those who don't have a sky sports package and got more ppv buys. Just rip off fight fans all the way as usual.

    Typical Adam and eddie ploy. .....eddie just stated he wants degale here in spring for a ppv.....could only be abraham or callum smith......or outside chance in gilberto ramirez

    Will likely be a rights issue at the Canadian end.

    Sounds like a rip off to me too.

    Not enough big fights and he is trying to milk the cow slowly, rather than giving us a deep card.

    Eddie doesn't do free TV.

    He clearly isn't allowed to make it a PPV, use your brain.

    Eh I must be missing something, surely this fight being on normal sky sports would mean less ppv buys for the kilt vs fury one? Surely Eddie would would have made more ppv buys if he took degale of the normal sky sports and added it the ppv then you would have ****s who complain that degale wasn't on sky sports,

    Btw I dnt know anyone who buys boxing ppvs who hasn't gt the sky sports package but I know plenty who have sky sports who follow boxing who refuse ever to order boxing ppvs

    Sky do not control the TV rights. They would not have been able to make it PPV.

    They could have made it a round £20 and added Degale Bute, instead we're getting one marquee fight for £17. As I don't have Sky Sports I consider tonight a rip off when two marquee fights are on their channels, and only one available to non subscribers.

    It's a PBC card not a sky card. Hearn has no say

    Shocked how anyone could think that Eddie could move degale to the PPV card.

    I know people have an issue with hearn and some of his business decisions but this has nothing to do with him.

    So why was Brook apart of the original PPV then?

    and another thing, it's not even HD. I've paid to watch and I'm not even getting HD.
