    Doesn't matter who they put on PPV, Brits will buy anything.
    The UK is where the US was around 2010.

    Yup.

    Ndaz are promising a Robson and Jerome tribute act as the live music for all future ring walks for every new subscriber!!

    Sadly PPV in the UK is not even close to dead.

    Let's not forget- Dubois vs Joyce was intended and would have been a PPV fight if it had not been for the pandemic. A pay per view British title fight featuring two boxers with little if any profile! Great fight, one of my most anticipated fights of the last couple of years UK wise but still it's interesting as it shows there is enough of a market out there even for extremely questionable PPV fights if the promotion can bring enough attention to it and sell a story rather than a contest.

    PPV won't die ever.
    It'll be interesting to see the numbers for Parker vs Joyce and Marshall vs Shields. Neither of them should be PPV.

    Remember that pubs and casinos will be part of the ppv numbers

    How on earth does Joseph Parker keep getting on PPV in the UK? He would be an undercard fighter in the US

    Won a vacant belt and Earn stated that he was a great after defending against a Shades of Ali fighter Hughie 'The Skirt' Fury and lasting the distance with a limited Tony Dosh PPV had Earn in orgasm mode.

    He was better in his last fight against King Plod Pudding Chisora but he really stunk out every fight before that.

    Never Box Office material
