are sky not trying to attract fan's & just fleece loyal fans

[hurlock]

apparently mitchell v murray is planned for ppv

Then they, (SKY and W arren) should explain why AND if the bout is to be PPV there should be some sort of organised email protest and boycott, allegedly there are 'streams' of fights. I would like to watch the bout but if it is PPV then I think someone is taking the piss; the fighters are not paid massive amounts so where does the dough go to?

Not a chance this will be PPV its only a week after the Haye fight

The only thing that stops a fight being on PPV is when the numbers don't stack up. Sky judged that Khan - McCloskey was not a PPV, so Team Khan took their ball into the Prime Time playground and by all accounts (albeit highly dubious accounts by those with a vested interest in the success of PPV) it did good numbers. If a crap fight with a weak undercard on a crap channel can do good numbers then Sky/Warren can easily justify a decent fight, with a crap undercard on SBO being PPV (as in last night).

Organised email protests are very well intentioned but the only way that PPV will stop is if boxing fans refuse to buy them. Sky / Warren know that won't happen, so the fleecing will continue.

Have you seen Warrens house, car, etc? He doesn't struggle for cash.

No but I do and there was a photo of Kevin Mitchells mums' house on here a week or 2 ago. No disrespect intended but it looked like the Mitchell family weren't rolling in it either. If I; as a working man; am to pitch in then I'd prefer that the boxers got more of a share of the money, not already wealthy people.

(A pipe dream I know :( )
