    £14.95 for Froch vs Groves

    or £10 for Mayweather vs Alvarez, Mathysse vs Garcia, Billy Joe Saunders vs John Ryder and Seth Mitchell vs Chris Arreola along with 4 All Access episodes.

    This is scandalous.

    i noticed that from the posters.was down on sky schedule as little as a week ago on sky sports.bit disapointed in this but will still order as im expecting card to be rammed as they indicated at press conference.
    Froch v Groves
    Quigg
    Crolla

    exactly mugging of fans? if you cant afford something your not been mugged of theres plenty of stuff id like but i cant afford it.

    and the cost of putting on Froch Groves is going to be a lot higher than just getting the rights to stream some Amercian shows.

    This is borderline PPV in my opinion. The fight (like the Haye/Fury fight) could have likely been made without PPV however. It'll be interesting to see if this is one PPV too far for the year.

    With Froch the Bute fight was the carrot on sky that got the casuals to bite & follow him the way sky did with Hatton to a lesser extent.Tickets sold out today in 11 mins apparently so a lot of casuals have obviously jumped on board.

    Think Hearn will put on a decent undercard....sky sports news will constantly drum up the fight & Ringside obviously.Doubt it will do great numbers but will cover a lot of matchrooms costs on the night.

    Agree, although this months Boxnation won't be worth a tenner at all, and Sky Sports' schedule over the next 7 weeks is surprisingly stacked.
