    Hearn has pretty much made PPV compulsory.

    Nobody needs to complain. If you don't like it just don't pay, it's really that simple.

    Fair enough but it's getting to the point where every damn fight is on PPV and if everyone refused to pay all the time we wouldn't get to watch any boxing.

    Is it really though?

    Didn't we have a MW unification fight on Sky sports. Wasn't Frampton v Cruz on Sky sports?

    Sky should at least offer special discount prices. £30 for all three for instance. Or £20 for two.

    Either way, can't argue with the Brook and AJ fights being PPV.

    If it's being promoted by Hearn, then yeah.

    The more people accept that more fights will become on PPV, then the more it'll become the norm and the quality on normal Sky shows will slowly decrease further. The 'Don't like don't pay' idea is an incredibly reductive way of looking at it.

    If you don't like ISIS then don't bloody pray!

    All of these are legit PPV fights.

    Everyone on here will watch all three some way or another.
