    i agree

    how long did it take calzaghe to get mainstream exposure?

    to become a household name?

    i fear there will become a generation of boxers that will be lost on the general public

    Boxing on regular Sky is getting 100,000 viewers. I doubt putting him on ppv makes that much difference to be honest.

    Agreed he is hardly going to draw Hatton type audiences for SFN alone there needs to be proper build up and promotion of the fighter Nathan Cleverly. As well a top class exciting performances before things can start snowballing into becoming a star.

    I think you have to remember things can happen very quickly in boxing as well. Haye went from leisure centres to 800 000 PPV's in a few fights
