Re: ppv
I remember when Adam Smith took over the reigns and sorted the Matchroom Deal, he said that they wouldn't be doing PPV anymore. Here we are just a couple of years later and it seems like we're getting shafted on PPV cards every couple of months.

Re: ppv
I haven't seen this announced as PPV?

as good a fight as this is? this is a fair fight for joshua to take at this stage of his development, nothing more.Stuarty30 wrote:Was always only going to be a matter of time before AJ was on PPV but as good a fight as this is there is no way it's PPV worthy. Hopefully there is a good card to soften the blow slightly.
what percentage had even heard of whyte before he was put forward as joshuas latest victim? this isnt even approaching the bellew cleverly rematch in terms of ppv legitimacy.
as i see it, anyone shelling out on this loses the right to ever complain about ppv again
Re: ppv
We are going to get a 'stacked card' again and to be honest I enjoyed the last one (Selby and Mitchell world title fights were good matchups), but will AJ then fight on a non PPV card again? Will he want to? I wouldn't be surprised if we have 4 PPV's next year.

Re: ppv
So when December comes we would have had 4 PPVs in the space of 13 months? Maybe Frank wasn't bullshitting after all

Re: ppv
Why does this fight need to be PPV? It's not to cover the purse of Joshua, it won't be to cover the purse of Whyte and this is the headline fight.
There will be plenty of people who will only watch this fight because Joshua is on and they won't give a monkeys about having a 'stacked' card.
If this was the headline on a saturday night with a decent British title fight as the main support with a couple of English level title fights then this would be a cracking card in my view.
I was going to buy Wlad v Fury next month but as a matter of principle i might sack that off now. I'll not be bent over a barrell

Re: ppv
This is nowhere near the level of Lewis-Mason or Lewis-Williams, both live on BBC 1.
Re: ppv
You wouldn't say it's a good match up? Two young prospects putting their records on the line, bad blood between them. I'd say it's a very good match up for this stage in their careers and we need more of the same over here. I didn't say it was PPV worthy but it's a good match up.mike john wrote:as good a fight as this is? this is a fair fight for joshua to take at this stage of his development, nothing more.Stuarty30 wrote:Was always only going to be a matter of time before AJ was on PPV but as good a fight as this is there is no way it's PPV worthy.

And if that's a crap fight, which it could be, this will be an even harder sell.Naandrew wrote:Will be Hearn says he is not doing a press conference after Fury v Klitschko so makes sense.Boxerbeetle wrote:So is this actually confirmed as PPV?

Re: ppv
Well I definitely won't be buying it, and I can't see many people buying a PPV so close to Christmas.

No way ! Dont pay !
Re: ppv
I'm still surprised that Coyle vs Campbell wasn't PPV. This is ridiculous.... Whyte hasn't done much to suggest he is any better than the likes of Cornish, Sprott etc. His best win was against a past it Mike Holden. If it was maybe a Stervine or Chagaev - e.g. someone with a WIN at world class and a bit proven, then mmm.... maybe - but someone as unproven as Whyte..... Rediculous.
I'm fully expecting a blow out within 3 rounds, unless Joshua has been given instructions to go rounds.
This could end up being as disastrous as Haye vs Harrison..... all sold on an amateur "rivalry".

i fully expect an early joshua ko
Re: ppv
Well DeGale surely has to fight soon anyway. I'd say after Mitchell's recent world title fight, he will be in some sort of eliminator fight, is it too soon for McDonnell to fight?mullenman wrote:Boxerbeetle wrote:So is this actually confirmed as PPV?
hearn trying to keep it quiet but I know its ppv
the undercard is going to be very good by the sounds of hearn in his last ifl interview
He has fighters that could do a PPV, wouldn't be a shock.
