Disgrace that this was PPV and I am annoyed at myself for buying it. The botoxed bullfrog has pickpocketed me at Christmas and it won't be happening again. In future a fight will need to be 60/40 at worst to get my money.

Then Fwank rubs it in his interview for pretty much saying he will continue to fleece us with shite like this rather than looking to make decent fights. He's meant to be a PPV world champion ffs.

Yes, but while that match was part of a PPV broadcast, it wasn't the TV headliner (although it did top the UK bill it was on). The SBO headliner was Bruno-Tyson 2.

Just that he's a slow starter and didn't expect Khan to be as quick out the blocks as he was. He says he was stunned but never hurt.

Looked very upset.
That sounds like he'd never seen Khan fight. Khan's always been a fast starter.
Indeed, even this was only his FOURTH-fastest finish.

Simpson V Bell was a decent enough undercard opener, for sure, and Mitchell V Precott was OK - and the Khan fight was over in a flash.

But other than that- what did we get - editted highlights??

This isn't enough.

A full evenings live action would justify the price, but this certainly didn't.
I heard the broadcast was scheduled to finish at 1am, yet it cut out at 11.30. Yet they weren't short of filler - I'm sure most would have liked to have seen Arthur-Wright and Enzo at least.
