haye / val start time

bout 8:15:good

 

Im interested in this fight but rather reluctant to stump up for the ppv.

I know sky have been trying to build it up and it might get some buys just on the 'freak show' factor that Valuev brings. But at the end of the day hes a fraud WBA champion...the real holder being Chagaev (before losing to Wlad).

Haye struggles to sell out arenas never mind drawing worthwhile ppv numbers.

 

I think this PPV will do well. Sky have plugged it to death. There's been some good spreads in the tabloids and it starts at a decent time.
Just need the right result. I hope Sky show most of the undercard.

 

The PPV will do well I think, theres blokes in pubs and people I know he didn't have an idea about Froch and the super six the other week but cant stop goin on about that David Vs Goliath fight!

If the fight stinks, which I think it could, it could really harm boxing, all these casual fans stumping up are unlikely to do so again.

 

This ppv is ****. Only one fight on show.

Still buying though.


No one gives a **** about the fight.

 

So it starts right away then? Unusual.

 

Its not rly unusual for a fight in Germany.

 

Crap, I'm meant to be out til like 9. It really starts so early? :|

 

Haye has been on every show to advertise this and i'm sure it'll be a good payday for him.

 

That's more along the lines of what I expected. Thanks a lot, hope you're right. :good

 

big fights in Germany seem to start at 10.15pm so it will probably start then. guess they will show Groves and Ruiz first, especially since Ruiz is his next opponent if he wins.

 

i think that this fight will do massive PPV numbers, casuals have been drawn in and haye himself plus clever ad placement by sky will mean a big big audience. its that magic of the heavys



i think for the sake of boxing haye needs to win. it sets up a massive US fight between him and wlad/ vitali on HBO and will bring a bit of excitement back. his win would mean this sport would be getting proper coverage for at least that time until one of the klits will KO him. still, it will be good while its lasts

 

Think this show will do good numberas for sky!!!

Forget that its the WBA and Klischkos are the real heavyweight champs
Forget that we all know Valuevs a boring fighter
Forget that the undercard is total rubbish

The general public love a Heavyweight champion!!! David Haye winning could be the best thing that happens to british boxing. Especially in terms of getting more shows on tv!!!!

 

When are Skys countdown/30 min advertisement shows on?

Gonna try and get myself a little bit up for this fight seen as I'm stopping in Saturday anyway.
