    I'd be more worried if you were just buying it for the Gavin fight.

    The PPV with Wlad and Khan and Liverpool is great value IMO

    I'd say a more apt comparison would be "This is falling apart like a Frank Warren card"

    I would've bought the PPV even if it was just Khan with the Liverpool undercard. But for some reason I was thinking it was JUST the Liverpool card and tbh I'm only interested in DeGale-Smith on that.

    Could it mean that the Lee fight is shown live if it wasn't already? I dunno, **** knows how they're going to work it.

    This is a shame if Clev isn't fighting. A fight against Lakatos wasn't gonna be great but Clev's been brilliant for a few years now and was superb on the last Mag 7 show. I'm sure he would've stood out again.

    Still great value pay per view though. The main fight of the night has to be Khan-Maidana anyway. And compare it to Khan's last pay per view a year ago:

    December 5, 2009: Amir Khan v Dmitry Salita; Kevin Mitchell v Breidis Prescott; John Simpson v Stevie Bell; James DeGale v Nathan King; Frankie Gavin v Samir Tergaoui

    December 11, 2010: Amir Khan v Marcos Maidana; Victor Ortiz v Lamont Peterson; Paul Smith v James DeGale; Wladimir Klitshcko v Derek Chisora; Kell Brook v Philip Kotey; Matthew Macklin v Rubin Varon' Tony Bellew v Ovill McKenzie; Larry Olubamiwo v Samir Kurtagic

    Gr8 Britain.. Gr8 value!

    Fair's fair, it is still a really decent night of boxing (superb compared to many ppv's).

    Warrens card is a bag of shite. He promised big and delivered small.

    All that matters anyway is Wlad vs Chisora and Khan vs Maidana which is still a very decent night in so il still buy it just for those two. The rest can **** off really

    Bellew-McKenzie could be a good tear up.

    Del boy Waldo and Khan Maidana (plus Ortiz and Peterson) is worth the £15 then you've got Degale Smith and Bellew Mckenzie plus the other dead certs, still very good value, especially when you think of the last PPV offering

    It's still a decent bill, as the OP says you can pay £35 to attend a **** card or pay £50 for one like this.

    No contest really. The Froch vs Dirrell ''fight'' was £45 with the worst undercard ever assembled for a world title fight..... people need to quit with the double standards.

    The only thing wrong with this bill IMO is that it's stacked with good fighters.... but not many good fights.

    Frankie Gavin vs Dean Harrison wasn't a good fight, especially given that Frankie whipped Harrison so bad in sparring that Lee Beard had to step in and stop it.

    Cleverly was facing a guy I've never heard of, so the replacement (if any) won't be any different probably.

    Hopefully there's no more pull outs and it's a good show. Looking forward to it.

    the only thing which will completely put a downer on the show is if smith-degale doesn't happen. the other fights do not really matter as they are more like stay-busy fights for the warren fighters involved.

    also, hopefully this means that selkirk-o'meara and heffrons fight get shown in their entirity.

    I don't know where i read this, but is it true Team Khan are back with Warren and he has the promotional duties over here? I was wondering how the Khan fight and the Warren bill ended up on the same PPV card, and that might explain it.
