    We are just pound signs, it's why I don't get this tribal attitude towards them.

    It’s just the price of a cheeky Nando’s. Not sure what the problem is.

    Warren was always anti stub hub just reason being he prefers ticketmaster. "for the fans".

    As I said we will see if any boxing channel call it a bad card.

    Imagine if Fury vs Whyte falls apart a week before and Frank Warren has to insert the substitute he already has ready.

    There's a difference. Whatever you make of Ticketmaster, Warren uses them as a supplier of services. Hearn uses StubHub whilst also accepting them as a sponsor.

    We will never know the commercial arrangements - maybe there's nothing in it. But that's why Warren brought it up in the first place.

    It is a very poor card with a poor headline fight as Whyte is simply a younger version of Chisora.

    Zero threat to Fury and a disgrace of a card.

    How many PPV buys do people think this does. Is Queensbury gonna lose money on this event?

    Fury v Weak Opponent does not have the same excitement as the three huge fights with Wilder.

    Probably will still sell very well as Fury is a huge star in the UK with a huge fanbase.
