    Right. Only fighters with big ethnic followings get US PPVs. The best fights are rarely PPVs.

    Yep, perfect contrasting styles, new personalities and stories, national pride/cultural differences. Would be perfect.

    I am also suprised its not PPV, given the media attention and large audience it is certain to draw.

    I would email HBO if I had a link. I'd love a 24/7 for this.

    I don't think that would do much help. :D

    I get you, though. The thing is, that may be able to convince them to make it a PPV. In that case, would it still be worth it? As true boxing fans we can only really answer yes.

    I can see sky charging for this, they are huge in europe.......but can you honestly say you know of 20 people you talk to regularly that know who either fighter are aside from you telling them? This isnt a modern day tyson holyfeild....Its the fight boxing FANS have been waiting for, because it sparks hope in a lackluster heavyweight div

    It's good that it's not on ppv. Both fighters will benefit from the exposure.

    I hope it's shown on HBO, i'll watch it live whenever it happens.

    The brits do it all the time for our big fights, we never really have to acquiesce. I'll gladly make time for this fight.

    They love to throw Adamek fights on PPV, not sure he & Vitali will make regular HBO but I sure as hell hope so.

    This will give both Haye & Wlad some good TV time. The Klitschko fights on ESPN was a joke.
