    Let's face it, it is gonna cost £15. It isn't a huge sum of money, certainly not a ransom!

    But, taking into consideration that Handsome Eddie has Sky dates to honour, how are those dates going to suffer so that he gets a good ppv viewing?

    Haye vs Wlad and Groves vs DeGale were the last I will pay for! On principle alone, I pay for SkySports and BoxNation. I will not buy ppv again! ****

    Yes, cos the ****ing touts got all the ****ing tickets and there is no way im paying £156 for a £40 ticket!!!!!
    Though living in Notts I suppose i could make my way to Hooters and watch it there!!!
    Actually, if Forest are at home it could an FTBB day!!!

    No. I'll stick to two fingers up at them and watch it on an illegal stream. That's what I think of PPV.

    Good undercard and i will definitely purchase it, poor undercard and i won't be purchasing it as i think €21.95 while not necessarily a lot of money is still far too much to waste on a card that overall as a package is not worth it.

    We'll see how the card shapes up i believe and i'm hoping that Eddie Hearn comes through with a good undercard otherwise he shouldn't be expecting me to purchase the card if he isn't putting in the effort towards making the card the best it can and should be.

    But a good undercard means less quality Sky dates, which we already pay for.

    The headliner sells PPVs to casuals, the undercard is for the boxing fans who probably would have bought it anyway. Don't expect too much.

    Yes and as a subscriber of sky i see where you're coming from, however if they want people to pay £14.95 (€21.95) they shouldn't be skimpy with the undercard.

    Seriously as good as Froch-Kessler 2 is i'm not paying the 21.95 for one fight as i can easily see it for free, so if he wants me to pay he has to put a lot of effort into this undercard.

    Yes I will, or i'll chip in and watch it at my mates. Unless somehow I find a semi reasonable ticket price. Too big a fight to watch on a crappy stream for me.
