    If you think either of those two names are anywhere near the level of the two you mention you really are even more out of touch with punters than i thought.

    Elaborate - was this post meant for me and what was it in response to.

    I just posted that there has been 2 PPVs in the UK jwith non UK headline acts just in case you missed them - one Fraud v Manny and Fraud v Conman McG which was a mass poking for the PPV mugths, particularly the latter where it was an exhibition bout.

    I didn't mean then fighting each other, I was referring to a loaded card for PPV should have made that clearer

    I would love to see Whyte vs Miller even though Miller is less than deserving of a payday, the build up would be ****ing amazing! An in shape Whyte would end up timing that catch and counter left hook into Millers chin to leave him all Lucas Browne'd on the canvas although, I think it would be a cracking fight up to that point.

    Make it happen Hearn....!

    Makes good sense while wilder is tied up. Mean while Wilder and Fury’s first fight will struggle to break even. If Wilder loses that first fight convincingly they will pull him out of the rematch and that leaves Fury vs AJ 2021

    Gotta be fair here. Of all the dross we've been served over the years that classify as PPV, Mayweather and Pacquio was at least the only one that was truly a PPV event between two of the best fighters of their generation.

    It turning out to be a dud doesn't change that. That's just unfortunate.

    Saved by the bell against Parker, behind on the cards against Chisora, donkey dancing against Rivas. It's only a matter of time. 265 pound Ruiz would get the job done.

    You can kind of see it from the promoters point of view to an extent. Not like fans aren,t willing to give or take tho. But they end up avoiding for too long. We,ve heard about wilder and joshua individually for years now....how long does it take to build a fight. The money their talking is astronomical. Everyone should be happy. Their taking 25 quid from fans and offering up ruiz...a guy that looks like he never really trained for it.

    And as joshua showed....win, lose or draw, you can always come back and be succesful the next time.

    Feels like a step back going for pulev.

    They we,re talking about its all about keeping the belts nowadays the other day
    ....lewis/klitchko etc did it. I think their missing a trick....the money they can make in one fight nowadays....it should be about making the best fights.

    These guys didnt quite have the ability to print money like joshua does....even lewis until he got tyson involved anyway.

    I would agree with you about Mayweather v Pac if the fight took place 5 years before the actual date. Manny was well past sell by date and even got poked shortly afterwards by the Hornet in Oz.

    Usyk boxes his head off for me, does he have the power to stop him.. Remains to be seen.

    I can't see a small heavyweight like Usyk beating the modern day monsters.
    Much too small.

    Not sure about that he is 6'3.

    Ruiz and Mike Tyson are 5'10
