Pretty much as Insider says , i would have paid a small fee to watch this on a stream ordinarily if one was available , although i do feel the reasons youve stated for not doing so are perfectly reasonable and justified , reason i say ordinarily id have paid for a stream is that in this particular instance i wouldnt as im at the froch bill on that date which in my view would take some of the viewership if a stream was done , so therfor think youve made the right decision not to bother this time as it may not have paid for itself .The Insider wrote:Very valid point Steve. Hatton.tv have done some cracking shows VIA YouTube for the small hall promoter but to my knowledge they have been sell out or close too when they have gone live. It's a double edged sword, as small hall promoters need to keep expenditure to a minimum but get maximum exposure for any prospect they have an investment in. Just for the record I would have paid a small levy to view this VIA an online outlet.stevegoodwin wrote:Trust me we have looked at all options. Everyone must keep in mind this no ordinary non tv show. I have had to pay Audley to come over from America one week before the fight. My priority is for people to attend the event. There has been no viable tv offer and I will not be streaming. I personally feel small hall shows are struggling around the country with boxers being forced to sell tickets to keep shows alive whilst boxing fans look for free options via streaming without contributing towards the sport. This is my personal views and I am interested only in those that want to support the event not those wanting some free or cheap stream.
