    With how cheap Warren is you probably would still need to buy your own ticket.

    Is anyone really surprised? Tyson fury is not cheap and neither is renting out the o2 arena

    Lol

    So because your not interested in every single televised boxing match your suddenly not a fan of the sport??

    I love tennis, does that mean I need to go down and watch the local pensioners playing on a Saturday to "prove I'm a fan?"

    Not surprised at all. UK cards tend to be shitty except for the main event. I just think the organizers are afraid that someone else might steal the highlights if there are other good fights on the undercard.

    I think it's almost entirely a financial issue.
    With the insanely huge pursebid they'd have to both save and squeeze out every penny to try to break even.
    They probably just hope a worthless undercard will save them more as it costs them.

    This is wrong, one of the best undercards I've ever seen was Whyte vs Povetkin.

    And AJ's undercards aren't often that bad either. He was had Povetkin vs Hunter, plus a Whyte and Chisora fight on an undercard, if memory serves me right.

    Even Talksport who are covering the fight and rarely take the opposing side to the promoter were struggling to apply the lipstick to this pig. Spencer Oliver 'had been trying to call Frank prior to going on so we could get some clarification' Pfft!

    Well that must hit the profit margin, esp considering the O2 isn't where the fight is

    Don't let Frank know, he'll have a heart attack if he realizes they've only got 20,000 seats not 92,000 at Wembley.
