If 750K payed for Haye-Bellew. They will pay for Parker-Whyte. All Hearn has to do is make sure a couple of chairs are thrown, fake feud is built up and Whyte-Parker start going at eachother face to face and on social media. They will also mention Anthony Joshua a lot in the build up to bring more casuals in.
It's nothing about the football. Sky dont even make much profit from PPV's. It's Hearn doing Whyte a favour, just as he done to Bellew. This is the football equivalent of Everton v Newcastle on PPV.
Don't normally mind forking out £20 for the PPV event but I wont on this occasion. Not interested in watching the fight. Don't like it, don't buy it. Simples.
Fake beef and the possibility the winner might get another shot at AJ down the line sudnt justify ppv. The casual fans brought the haye bellew beef as both are well known. Whyte is known for hurting AJ and parker came for the payday. I don' think the casuals will buy into this. It' ppv purley for Hearn and sky' greed.
It doesn't make a difference to me if it's PPV or not as I don't have any TV channels so I stream every fight even if it's on terrestrial tv. However, people might want to watch this fight but don't want to fork out 20 bucks for it when they already pay over the odds for their sky sports package, and they quite rightly should expect this sort of fight to be part of their package.
Absolutely spot on - these PPV mugs really need to open their eyes. It is only a competitive fight for a Marks & Spencer Belt - nothing else.
