    Well................I almost got caught up in the hype for the El Pollo/Chavez fight, but decided at the last minute not to buy it, and my gut feeling was correct, what a disappointment! I really felt sorry for all the fight fans who got ripped off......................can't remember the worst PPV that I bought, perhaps because I do not want to...........

    Bellew v Cleverley - absolute rubbish from start to finish. **** and wind.
    Vlad v Fury - main event full of running away and non punching, non existent undercard.

    I take the undercard into account!

    But I see your point, people tend to buy just to watch the biggest 2 fights. It was same at Brook Spence most people only came into stands for the Groves and Brook fight

    Fury vs Klitschko

    It is a struggle to think of a worse undercard for a PPV

    that undercard is worse than any sky or boxnation card over the last few years, not 1 well known fighter on the undercard.

    Haye v Klitschko
    Haye v Valuev

    I've probably seen worse PPVs though, but others paid for them.

    spoken like a true casual !!!

    As a boxing fan the more competitive and exciting fights there are the better ... the undercard fights for the Brook v Gavin night was awesome. The Hibbert fight was an amazing back and forth scrap, Linares v Mitchell again was a tremendous scrap with great drama, You had Selby put on a masterclass performance against Gradovich, decent scrap with Ryder and Blackwell, a teaser fight with AJ and the mismatched headline.

    Let me guess you tuned in that night to watch the AJ and then Brook fight only

    Bellew v Cleverly 2 easily the UK's worst PPV.

    The biggest comedy of the night was Tony Bellend calling for the trilogy at Cardiff.

    The undercard was fairly stacked with big names in horrendous mismatches, Quigg fighting that tougher than expected Japanese fella, Smith struggling with a Serb, Groves and Degale with token TKO's and Joshua 'toughest opponent to date' the 'durable' and 'experienced' Michael Sprott.
