    Eddie Hearn is reaching a bit making this a PPV?

    Just looking on Boxrec, the only other fighters listed Natasha Jones and Josh Kelly. Need to stack this card fairly hard to make anyone want to pay for this?

    People bought the first one. This will sell, no doubt about it.

    James Joyce will probably be facing a domestic title holder and I imagine Willy Hutchinson will also be on the bill. Rocky Fielding should be onagainst a decent name. Maybe Lewis Ritson too.

    Casuals will buy it, lots of bars will be holding Haye/Bellew 2 events like the first fight, it'll do good numbers.

    Clever time to put it on as well. That close to Christmas everyone is looking to do something and most are splashing more cash than usual.

    I'm just surprised Eddie didn't go the whole hog and put it on Boxing day.

    This will sell and the question marks over Hayes physical health and Bellews ability will only add to that.

    Both are very vulnernable and that unpredictability makes it a good rematch

    Guessing TB will be on A League of Their Own again as well just to help sell to the masses.

    Both will clear seven figures out of this and the only way that happens is to make it PPV. It will sell, make no doubt. It is a massive money spinner which will likely bring in £10 million+.

    They had respect for eachother after the fight, watch how they magically have beef again to sell the fight

    Not hopeful for the undercard, probably Ohara Davies and olympians

    First of all it’s Bellew Haye.

    Secondly there’s been talk of Brook and DeGale making comebacks on this card.

    Hutchinson and Joe Joyce will be on it.

    Joe Selkirk is making his return on it I believe too. (Undefeated former European champion)

    Fielding Skoglund is one they’re trying to get on there.

    Then loads of others who just need a fight before the end of the year who will be on there.

    Haye wants Jo Joyce for either British or commonwealth title, that would be decent, but relies on sexton/Allen taking the fight...

    Do the majority of the people who buy ppvs really buy it because it's got a good undercard? Plus Most pubs/bars you go in have the undercard on the screens but with music on and only put commentary on for the main event.
