O'Donnell v Singleton off Haye bill

Post by pyenest77 »

Steve Wood & Singleton not happy on twitter about being O'Donnell pulling out & them being dropped off the bill. Understandable really as Shayne says that he has sold 100 tickets. Hopefully they will be able to get a refund. Leaves the bill looking a bit threadbare.

About ten years ago I told my friends that John O'Donnell would definitely be a World Champion one day.

They no longer listen to me :-?

Why oh why didn't Hate just have a word with his mate Eddie and get himself added to the copperbox card at the end of the month?

Is he really that deluded that he thinks he can put himself in with a knockover job without even bothering to add a credible undercard and everyone will be ok with it?

Well he's got a tv deal (I know its probably not big bucks but I'm sure probably more than taking a cut from Matchroom) and hes sold more tickets than the copperbox actually holds even with a shit opponent and undercard.

Granted I agree you wouldn't see me going to something like this and I'd debate whether they are 'boxing fans' by my definition but hes still a big draw whether deservedly so or not. Why would he go cap in hand to Eddie?

Agree. He couldn't give a fornicate that the card is shit there are 12,000 people going without any other promoter taking a cut.

I thought they were going to have music as the support ? How much does a DJ cost ?

This will give Eddie ideas for PPV, no undercard just a DJ

Is Haye really that big ? The ticket sales astound me - he must be. What type of boxing fan buys a ticket when there's no undercard though. Just don't get this at all.

I didn't realize he had sold so many tickets :o
I am both shocked and appalled.

British arena cards rarely have much of an audience for the undercard, just full for the main event.
