    Alex Arthur vs Nicky Cook (WBO super featherweight title)
    Audley Harrison vs Martin Rogan
    Steven Bendall vs Paul Smith (BBBofC English middleweight title)
    Femi Fehintola vs Stephen Foster (BBBofC English super featherweight title)

    Harrison vs Rogan is off :deal

    I won't pay for a show without a world title fight on it, full stop.

    If it was a legal requirement to pay for this card, I'd rather not and face prison.

    i wont say disgaceful ...but thats tres bad.
    he is not a world class fighter at the moment why the hell is he goign ppv...not even ppv against a world ranked opponant,

    cook-arthur is a fight that could be classed as a world title fight and should of happend a while ago but then nicky just got destoryed by luevano.


    it's a decent card but none shoudl pay for it. there is a reason peopel say boxing is diing and thats becuase no one is buying bull**** ppvs

    See this card isn't really aimed at boxing fans but more general sports fans that only like hatton and khan and would struggle to name 3 other fighters, still even they probably wont buy this ****

    I don't know what's worse, Khan being the main event or the fact that it's a PPV!

    :think Good observation, might of been good of you to point out english sports fans, were is most other place outside the crown, neither hatton or khan would be known to your general sports fans,

    Cotto also was put on PPV before he had a title, but they made alot of mexican vs P.R. match ups on the undercards to help sell it,,,,alot of top mexicans get thrown on ppv instead of just on basic cable....I think DLH started the trend of shaking down the few dollars a dishwasher makes. :hi:
