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

    You've asked a loaded question so that if you don't get the response you want you label them a casual lol nice one sir.

    I would buy Whyte/Chisora over frampton card any day. In fact, I'll be heading down there in person seeing as I missed all the glory the first time round.

    Being there in the flesh, two warriors going at it like fine tuned animals.

    Whyte has improved since their last bout, and Chisora pulled off a great upset against Takam, not by luck either, he actually trained EXACTLY for that win.

    Man it will be so awesome.... however thinking about Frampton bores me to death, and Tuesdays are boring enough

    To each their own, so then what's the point of this thread... to incite division and insults?

    I don't want to watch Frampton, I like heavy weights, I like K.Os, and there have been many gifted technical fighters in the HW division and that makes them more special.

    All comes down to taste. Chisora v Whyte is two top fifteen guys coming of their career best victories in a fight that was voted fight of the year.

    Warrington is coming of his career best victory and fighting his best opponent to date who has come back strong after tasting his first loss.

    Both are good fights, neither are huge fights warranting PPv but I guess that's how the business rolls these days. The Frampton fight is probably more important on papaper being a world title fight but that doesn't mean it's going to be a better fight. People want to be entertained and there is probably a better chance of that in the heavies.

    So, it's swings and roundabouts, what style people want and think they will get out of whichever fight they will go for. Most will watch both anyway.

    My point still stands. Casuals are not the saviour of boxing, they only help an extremely small minority.

    Frampton Warrington is a good fight but will do shocking numbers.

    don't really see the appeal of Whyte/Chisora II. First fight was unreal, but if it's the same again, i'd be very surprised. Chisora may have won last time out with a great finish, but he was being battered from pillar to post and Whyte needed a headbutt to beat Parker. I'd much rather watch Frampton/Warrington, there is more skill and more variables attached to that than there is Whyte/Chisora.

    However, i'm not sure people picking Whyte/Chisora are casuals, if they expect it to be like the 1st, that was a damn good fight and because it's a weak main event PPV, they will have to put a good undercard on

    The bottom line is, neither are ppv worthy. Once you get past that you realise it’s two good fights and you pick one which you stylistically favour, watch both at the same time, or watch one the next day.

    AND WHYTE CHISORA ISNT EVEN CONFIRMED (ESPECIALLY ON THEM DATES!)

    Aren't the "casuals" the vast majority of PPV buyers anyway?
    As a boxingfan I wouldn't buy either, because neither fight is PPV worthy imo.

    I'm sure Jurgen has a streamlined set up going on. He will have VIPleague on the IPad, multiple Twitter stream accounts such as Stream_Planet ready to be accessed on the ps4, and probably has a backup periscope stream at the ready on his mobile phone.
