Any mugs here paying Sky Box Office for Groves V DeGale ?

As things stand then no i'm not.

I'd don't see sections of the card that Sky are showing as being PPV worthy.

Had Sky said that they'd be showing 4 hours of back to back to back to back boxing then i'd have been tempted but from what I've read / heard they'll only be showing 3 fights on the night. Poor.

 

I doubt I'll buy it.

I'm glad it's happening because I always like to see the best fighting each other domestically, but I don't even like DeGale/Groves as a stylistic matchup. I think it makes for a poor fight personally but hope I'm wrong of course. Plus I don't really like the way they're trying to hype it. Since when did not liking each other mean it's going to be a great fight?

Cleverly/Braehmer is the only one I have a real interest in and even then it's only something like the world number 8 and 9s fighting with the winner pretending to be the best in the world.

I think I'd buy it if they had one more good domestic level fight or they bundled it with Hopkins/Pascal.

That said, I wouldn't call anyone a 'mug' for wanting to pay for it. I'd still pay for it over Haye-Harrison and Khan-Salita or Khan-McCloskey.

 

A Guru told me the fight wasnt worth paying for, so I'll heed the good advice

 

Haha, agreed, sounds like you might be better off paying the £15 yourself!

 

Beware, that lads a bit of a nutjob!

 

I'm going to the fight but if I wasn't I'd pay for it. 15 quid is not a lot now days and not if your a boxing fan. Funny thing is I think I will have to re-watch it when I get back because I think we are sat with the gods...lol

 

i wont be paying for it because im a poor student but i agree this is alot more PPV worthy than alot of other recents ones mentioned. Also going on past performances we can probably see both clev/braehmer and groves/degale going a decent distance with decent action unlike haye/Harrison which was always going to be a farce.

 

I couldn't take 3 quid each off my mates - i'd never live it down - i'd be called all the tight ****s under the sun!
I'll get it - begrudgingly.

 

I aint buying it, will wait to get DVD copy of it.

 

il probably talk to all my mates about it and decide that its bull**** and a rip off and the presentation of PPV events is shockingly amateur.....


.....then buy it half an hr before it starts on my own

 

Im a big Groves fan so I am buying it no question.

Id pay allot more than £15 to see Groves KO DeGale

 

haha....i hate it when that happens...despising certain ppv's such as Haye/Harrison and Khan/Mccloskey but then paying for it half hour before the event...oh why does PPV brainwash our minds!!

 

If I was on Sky I nprobably would have bought it. But then I probably would have bought most of what primetime has showed on PPV.

I can't see it doing very well though, the only people I know that might be watching it are people I know with Sky that i can hijack and get ****ers to chip in

 

there should be at least 2-3 other title fights on the card.

 

Its an absolute disgrace no offence but if i was walking outside sheffield arena and it was a british title fight for 15 quid entry i would only be thinking about it never mind watching it on the telly for that much. I'm gonna make a point of watching this one on stream
