    You know that in Belfast throwing a pint of your **** over another is the greatest sign of affection one can have for another right?

    That act just demonstrates the true love and support that the British and Irish fans have for Wilder!

    I was not aware of that custom. What a nice old man to show that kind of love and respect for the foreigner. Shame on Hearn/AJ haters for all the hate the spewed at this kind old man :nonono

    It had the rug pulled out from it.

    But the hype will be there. It's a matchup between the #1 heavy in the world and the longest remaining elite (the only one not named Klitschko) from the old guard. Two top 5 heavies, the world watches.

    Well i was talking from a financial point of view. Those are the facts, Companies can charge those prices, because they know people will still buy it. Why don't you criticise the people who still buy $70 PPV's ?

    Supply and Demand my friend, i might be the average man, but if i was in charge of a corporation, you think i's give a sh*t about the average man in regards to pricing ?

    No, and no-one does, that's life, society and capitalisim. Also if you're a boxer, wouldn't you love the US PPV Model, Mayweather i'm sure wouldn't hesitate to say he does. It made him close to 750M worth of revenue

    You need to get out of this bubble, no-one cares about the average man or women, the real desire for corporations is to extract as much as money as they can. Because that's how our Economy works, which is the lifeblood of our lives.

    Re-assess yourself, it should have been evident by the time you were a ten year old boy, that this is how the big bad world works.

    Two posts in two threads....and you've completely missed the point in both.

    You seem to think corporations are in Boxing because they believe they are doing fans a favour. They aren't. They are in it to make money.

    Yep Troy Deeney and Max Branning from eastenders will likely be in attendance.

    You can almost sense the gloom in the air, the feeling you get when the circus is coming to an end.
    Povetkin is about to derail the biggest hype job from these shores in such a long time.

    I wish the fight happened a few years ago when Povetkin was in his prime. Still, it is an exciting fight and I am looking forward to it. I am sure it will do fine financially.
