    Sky ditched PPV after David Hayes last 2 stinkers

    But do you reckon that Froch v Kessler 2 could make a PPV comeback for Sky Boxing?

    No. Sadly froch doesn't have the following as someone like khan. Mostly due to fat mick.

    no and I for one wouldn't pay for it. Sky just need to keep froch on the normal skysports, he could have been a payperview star no doubt if promoted right but for me it's too late, he needed building up on sky for at least a few fights, sadly thats probably all he has left.

    Doubt it, I reckon it will take a Mayweather vs khan, or the Mayweather vs Pacquaio fight if it ever happens for sky to go back to PPV

    People forget why Sky ditched PPV in the first place- it was because of massive ordering problems with the Haye/Klitchko fight. This made Sky look like a bunch of chumps and they don't need/want the hassle of bad PR again.

    they did 668,000 on regular sky spors so there is interest in Froch even if they do 100k buys on sky box office it would be worth it for them
