Hearn said this is the fastest a show that has ever sold out on these shores due to it being such a huge fight. I guess hattons comeback does not count......and that was before an opponent was even announced. People were always going to buy tickets for the fight its the ppv that ppl are not going to buy.

All the undercard fighters have tickets.

Back in the day promoters didn't count the tickets out with fighters as 'sold' until the money was in. Times have changed.

I have no issue with the fight, I would like to watch it but I won't because it simply shouldn't be PPV.
Sky Sports subscribers pay hundreds of pounds a year already.
If people do pay then Hearn will continue to use the PPV route and fleece subscribers more and more.
The only effective way is to vote with your cash.

Isn't that the opposite of what you meant to say?
I'm going to buy one of those things that takes hard skin off your feet with the £15 I save from not buying the PPV.
