    And prince Naz bought the other :lol:

    As for Khan - Bradley not being PPV worthy, please! It's got PPV written all over it. Unification fight, people know Bradley after Witter, And the winner will likely move up in weight. People say Bradley has no profile in the UK, but Pac had vertically none over here in the run up to DLH

    clearly there must be a certain level of buys at this stage and khans not done well.

    glad it has happened. it is a joke of a fight and it was a joke to hold a date for khan.

    sky need to sort it out and sort it out quick.

    Usually they'd put on a UK card though, because putting an American card with no British fighters is a bit strange, no?

    It's wrong to charge PPV for this fight. The same as Audley - Haye. I'm glad it's been pulled. At least non-boxing fans will tune in though since they won't have to pay.

    Khan vs Maidana 2 is PPV worthy.

    Im glad Sky are seeing sense and this 'automatically PPV' bull**** is coming to an end. Lets go back to old days when only the big fights were on PPV.

    Its like with Farnk Warren shows now...we are having to accept PPV for domestic stuff....really???

    Its up to Sky what is deemed PPV material...not Khan or anyone else. Khan is learning now that he is simply not a big draw.

    And the guy who said he paid for Dela Hoya v Mayweather in UK...he didnt cos it wasnt PPV it was just SS1. Dela Hoya vs Pacquiao i think was the PPV one
