What chance does Hearn have with the money Haymon's paying? Guerrero is meant to be getting $2.5 million for fighting Thurman and Lee's on $1 million+ for Quillin. Hearn's only hope is that Haymon doesn't want the fight in America.

Which is kinda what people are saying is a very high possibility given Dirrell couldn't sell sand to the Arabs.

If Degale can get anywhere near that money from Hamon let him travel for it.

I'm sure JDG will be confident no matter where the fight is held.

Hearn is not going to enter into a purse bid.
If he can't get a deal done with Haymon before the deadline (which is what I'm predicting) then it's over to the states for Degale for a shot with as much money as Eddie can get from the americans which he will claim to be la massive amount.

It's not a PPV card worthy card anyway. It won't even sell out The O2, nowhere near.

Who the eff would pay £50 to Sky on top of their subs already, to have a stale mega-fight with Watt & Halling commentating on it... At 4.20am ?

people will just download the American version first thing Sunday morning.

Sky have lost a lot of boxing fans since November's debacle. In fact overall they are losing thousand's of customers every week.

They have a cheek charging best part of a ton every month for old rom coms and freeview.

It's antique technology, a huge dish, a coax cable and a great big block of a unit controlled by the world's biggest TV remote. Their Sky Go is very poor quality by 2015's standards - they are so far behind everyone else now I can't see them catching up. 2 yrs max and then it's game over.

If it did great numbers why has he always refused to reveal them?

Well there's Degale Dirrell off this card

Where the hell do they get the money from ?

Can't have a dig at Hearn.

If this card is on normal Sky

Selby v Gradovich IBF world title fight

Joshua v Johnson

Ryder v Heiland

I'd be happy. Need to get a move on announcing though

Think Heiland's got a WBC final eliminator, not much chance of him coming over to fight Ryder, expecting another shit opponent for him, Hearn will throw out a couple of names, then claim they couldn't get them as an excuse for a poor opponent, I've already seen Vera and Soro mentioned.

Just checked the rankings didn't realise Heiland is no1 with WBC so no chance there.

looking at rankings the best fight for Ryder would be the guy who beat Vera Willie Munroe Jr but that may be a bit optimistic

I guess I was right then...off to the States for Degale. Glad hes getting 1.5m though...Hearn will use that to try to spin this latest fcuk up

I blame George Groves for this

Eddies thoughts on losing the purse bid

This show may not happen on this date now.

You have nobody to blame but yourself.

He won't keep doing it, if people don't keep paying.

Agreed man. I just hate missing fights. With this one I tried not to buy it but didn't have the will power lol. Anytime I've tried to stream a fight it just frustrates me.

I'd rather watch the shittiest advert laden stream than give the bastard my money for his abysmal ppv bullshit.
