According to some of you that wasn't worth 15 quid

He placed brisket to win sirloin

 

Hopefully you can realize by paying all the time doesnt solve anything.

Vote with your wallets and you may get somewhere. Keep paying and saying how high, when they say jump, and it will only ever get worse.

I know people who have paid for this tonight. Some will regret it, some not.

But for what it was tonight, IMO, 1 fight, a cracking fight.

Stick it on Sky Sports 1, a channel that people are paying for anyway.

There is no justification for a card like that to be PPV.

In that case. Why wasnt Ward-Froch PPV or Bute-Froch PPV?

 

The adverts pissed me off more than anything frankly because I couldn't understand a word that they were saying :?

 

Its completely annoying, especially in Thai or whatever the **** it was

 

On boo ****ing hoo people had to pay extra for a fight that delivered the goods. Has it occurred to anyone that in order to deliver Kessler the money he wanted they had to find a source of income that would make it happen? He knew it was a risk so be asked for money the sky wouldn't cough up without PPV. Boxing is a business no matter what us fans would like to think. Money makes the world go round.

 

These fight could be made because the money was good enough for both parties without it being PPV. Froch v Kessler wasn't happening otherwise. If you were Kessler, why would it have been worth your while to fight Froch in the UK if the money wasn't right? Kessler could have stayed at home and defended his belt against a steady conveyor belt of opponents if he wished.

 

I gather Eddies control of the internet failed on an international level as well as domestically?

 

I still think people would of happily and willingly paid it if the card itself was a bit better. Fighters like Froch and Kessler dont get paid enough for what they do. I aint being funny about it, because it was clearly a great fight. Its just the card people aint happy with and wasnt happy with before tonight.

People will pay for Fury-Haye, if it happens, but hopefully Matchroom learn from tonight and build a better card than what you had tonight. Which was anything but PPV.

 

Is there a bunch of people upset and wanting their money back for the fight?

 

Hubris is a terrible thing

 

So you bought the fight after 4 months of saying you wouldnt?

 

The alphabet boys would like to thank those who spent money on the PPV for ignoring what happened in the Supersix and for buying into this 'world title' event even though deep down both they and you know the 'world title' tag was entirely bogus but basically helped enable Sky and Matchroom to promote this as a PPV event. With the percentages from the alphabet sponsored main event and two undercard fights, plus promoter licence fees and bout fees etc etc, as well as the jolly for the various alphabet supervisors they estimate they'll take at least a £250,000 cut from the night despite being gatecrashers to the party. So thanks for your belief in the multi champion era and completely overlooking the supermiddleweight two year competition that was supposed to find the number one and push the alphabet politics to one side. They look forward to doing business with you at future alphabet sponsored events. After all fight night isn't fight night without several alphabet belts up for grabs.

 

Out of principle i didn't pay for the PPV i watched it on a live stream must add it was a great stream

 

Lol if you had principals and were genuinley protesting you would ignore the card all together.

If people are cheap, fair enough. But don't try and play yourself of as some liberal hippy fighting back against the man!
