Worst PPV you've spent your hard earned on?

Paid for haye vs audley and bellew vs cleverly.. I've learnt my lesson now!
Re: Worst PPV you've spent your hard earned on?
Bellew v. Cleverly - fight stunk the building out.

Re: Worst PPV you've spent your hard earned on?
Hmmm. Either Haye vs Audley or Fury vs Klitschko in pure boxing terms.
Although Mayweather vs McGregor is probably up there as that was a total mismatch and complete cash grab, I actually felt a bit ashamed of myself for ordering it as soon as it had finished.

It sure was. Lol, same night as Ruiz/Johnson & I think Shane/winky 2.

Don't get me wrong - Haye v Audley was terrible. But I'm not sure why you would therefore never pay for another PPV fight.
It's a bit like spending money on a weeks holiday, having a bad time, and saying 'I'm never going on holiday again.'
Re: Worst PPV you've spent your hard earned on?
I went to Haye vs harrison
What an absolute joke
I've never paid for a bad ppv. I can't understand people who complain about ppvs then buy them. The fight is always on YouTube the next day
I canceled sky sports after bellew vs cleverly was ppv so I've seen very few matchroom cards since

I was at haye/Harrison. The atmosphere was pretty good.
The worst thing was having to listen to bunce on the way home endlessly defending Harrison’s performance and “chances” on the radio for an hour.

Inbetween Setanta going tits up and B-Nation starting, Primetime was a godsend as it picked up a lot of the Super 6, it also picked up some horrible PPV at the same time and I bought them all, Stieglitz vs Ornelas and Holyfield vs Sherman Williams were probably the worst

Phil Taylor v Andy "The Viking" Fordham. Another Hearn mismatch.
Re: Worst PPV you've spent your hard earned on?
Talking of Hearn and Harrison, wasn't this Eddie's first promotional bash? I think it was Haye's promotion but it was the first time Eddie was in the press etc as Harrison's promoter.

The recent Joshua one was dog shit

Bellew v Clev rematch for sure
Re: Worst PPV you've spent your hard earned on?
Probably Floyd Mayweather vs Carlos Baldomir
Re: Worst PPV you've spent your hard earned on?
Tyson v Bruno, I think it was the first PPV in England.
Barry McGuigan was insisting Bruno would win, I never trusted him after that

Re: Worst PPV you've spent your hard earned on?
That was free to air in the UK (well, free to Sky Sports subscribers anyway). I never really thought about anyone paying PPV for it - I guess that’s why Floyd got so much criticism for being so negative. If I’d paid extra for it, I’m sure I’d have been complaining too.
Re: Worst PPV you've spent your hard earned on?
I really cannot remember ButterBean vs Holmes on UK PPV - Sky just said the result as they showed another American card.
Holyfield vs Botha, Holyfield vs Williams.
There were some other pretty awful ones that get largely unnoticed.
Lennox Lewis vs Frans Botha was pretty poor.

Lol! Did you really? £1.49 isn't really hard earned. You must earn that in 15 mins

No, not really.... and I live in Zimbabwe, so it would actually take me a year to earn £1.49 considering current exchange rates
