Apart from some casuals, who would actually buy Whyte - Chisora 2 over Warrington - Frampton?

    Whyte Chisora 2 is like a sunday league level scrap. Frampton Warrington is Champions League.

    How can you say that? Name a fight either Frampton or Warrington have been in that was anywhere near as good as Whyte v Chisora 1?

    I won’t be paying for either but if they’re on the same day I’ll probably be watching the big fellas for entertainment. I’ll watch the boxing on Sunday morning.

    Um not sure if you are serious.

    Frampton Santa Cruz 1 and 2
    Warrington v Selby

    were all better, more skillful fights.

    You may find it more entertaining to see two clumsy punch drunk sluggers fumble around the ring, but I'm afraid that makes you a casual.

    Call me a casual then. Warrington Selby was hardly a barn stormer. I did enjoy the Frampton Santa Cruz fights but the Whyte Chisora fight was brilliant.

    The majority of fans who buy fights and watch fights live are casuals. If you think for one minute that Warren and BT are not aiming to get casual fans buy the frampton vs Warrington fight then you are living on fantasy land.

    Facts are chisora vs Whyte is gonna out sell frampton vs Warrington by minimum of 5:1

    Another who will pay for this fight thread.

    Forget throwing the word "casual" about mate, the word you should be shouting is "sheeple".
    Many folk woke up a long time ago.

    I don't get the insult about calling a person 'a casual'. What's wrong with someone wanting to watch any fight they like especially if they are paying money for it. My thoughts are more people old and new who watch boxing is good for the sport. You never hear other sporting fans moaning about 'casuals' in there sport so why is it such an issue with boxing.
    And to answer the thread question I think both fights will be good but I will be watching Frampton Warrington either on TV or attending the actual event.

    I would.

    Frampton and Warrington are vanilla midgets.

    I like my PPV boxing to be entertaining, 2 big mental lumps who hate each others guts slugging away with no defence?

    What's not to like.

    (Ps i dont care about being called a casual or hardcore)

    Its pathetic

    Like you deserve some sort of imaginary Internet "cred" for being a hardcore fan.

    I have a certain number of hours in my week to dedicate to boxing and it's not that many

    So my time goes on what's the most entertaining

    If that makes me a casual... oh well
