Tonights Sky/Matchroom Fights - uncompetitive

Hearn has a monopaly on Sky Boxing but not on UK Boxing.

I think we see a good undercard. Hearn needs PPV to work.

 

I don't watch Buncey. If watching Groves beating up a bum is your cup of tea, then you are in for a treat tonight. I can't wait for Johnny and Glen to gush over his performance:bbb

 

I was responding to your comment about Sky not caring about Groves before.

No I would rather they showed Clarke vs Camacho or Taylor vs Skinkwin.

 

Hearn said it himself, there no in-between. Thats the problem. Even a modest PPV buyrate trumps regular Sky money by a distance.

 

Because of the Hearn's pulling string with sky to get all the TV dates they can now do what they want. What should have happend is Sky should have said we're putting on 20 shows a year, the best shows will get TV coverage. Now you have good shows not getting good coverage and fighters like Quigg, Murray, Dickinson, Price etc. who can not get on TV and have to go elsewhere if they want to get coverage.

It is bull **** but people think the Sun shines out of Hearn's arse.

 

Then we are in agreement on that point. Groves was just another Brit fighter up until a week ago. I only hope GG gets it done in one so they can show a better fight.

 

The whole set up is crap. I think they should say the matchups they want to buy and tell the promoters of those fighters to make it happen. Giving a promoter a free reign to put on a show of their choosing is wrong imo. We don't watch promoters, we watch fighters!

 

Looking at the Argentinians record I think theres a good chance of your hopes being realised,Scotty.I hope he walks out of the place under his own steam.Going back to Froch/Kessler,I agree with Gasman that it shouldn't be pay per view,if only because I hoped those days had gone.Personally,would have liked Carl to take on Stevenson first,but realise Ill be in a minority.

 

they have talked often about groves being a potential world champion.....thats what they talked about this week.

 

Everyone has a price and since Hearn has a randsome on all of the TV dates the least he could do is folk out the money to get these guys to fight on the card. When ****** is cheap skate ******* with this stuff you cry about it but when Hearn is (just as often) you always havean excuse.

Did the guys turn down the fight? No they turned down the offer Hearn made simple as that. Stop using that bull**** excuse it's not like anyone believes it when ****** says he offered Hopkins etc offers for Clev.
