Its obvious December 12th was intended to be another stacked card PPV. Going off what Peter Fury is saying its looking like end of November. Looking at Dusseldorf's football fixtures November 28th looks like the date. Surely sky would not have two PPVs within 14 days.

Could be Dec 12th though as Dusseldorf are at home the night before.

Will be clear by the end of next week.

Surely a stadium fight in December will be too cold? Or is it not so bad down in Germany over the winter?

No idea but it's only two weeks after the date its sounds like it will be and would fit With the sky card over here. People setting up would have to work over night due to football the night before just like Froch Groves 2

Hearn has said that this will be a pay-per-view evening, and that he will stack the undercard.

I will sit this one out, like I did with the Frankie Gavin fight, and will not bother with the Joshua-White fight (it will be over inside two rounds that one). I will get the Fury-Klitschko fight when it's rescheduled, though, as it is genuingly world class fight and we don't know how it will play out.

Absolute disgrace and pure greed simple as

He is keeping it at PPV. In other news, Luke Campbell is selling tickets on his website at face value for Dec 12th, thousands more are with other fighters and thousands more online. And Eddie says he can't believe it sold out in six hours... He's out of control.

He needs a rabbit out of the hat for this one.

Quigg-McDonnell might save it but surely not enough time to make it.

He said Eubank is fighting a top 15 ranked fighter. He didn't specify which rankings he was using.
My guess there's a bouncer in Latvia who's ranked 14 in the WBC Baltic division who's getting a phone call about a PPV bout. He's going to bring a mate for Tony Bellew aswell.

He will be scratching around trying to get a "decent" name for Eubank Jnr now, I would imagine its too short notice for Blackwell to defend the British against him although the offer might be a good few grand over what he would have got prior to this, more than likely an ageing name brought in from the states/mexico. Could they persuade Joshua to put in an appearance in a knockover? Don't get me wrong its a good card with what he has on it but its not a ppv card and he knows that, Barry and Eddie need to get there fingers out and bring in something that raises eyebrows, not sure he has the time, however I hope he does from the fans point of view.

How the fvck can Eddie stack the card at 1 month's notice? Anyone who buys this as a PPV is an idiot.

Does a bear sh*t in the woods?!

x100!

Hearn is everything that is wrong with Boxing, but Sky control Hearn, they are worse. I cancelled my Sky 8 years ago due to their shoddy treatment of Scottish Football fans in comparision to the overrated pish that is the EPL, I couldn't stomach giving Sky my money for anything.

Boxing fans are treated with utter contempt on that Channel. Brook - Chavez PPV is the equivalent of putting Liverpool v Norwich on PPV, would that happen? Not a chance! Hope the card falls on its arse and there are more injuries to make Hearn and Sky look worse that they already are, if that's possible!

The stadium has a retractable roof like the Millenium Stadium, it will be cold but the roof effectively turns it into a giant indoor arena.

It has central heating, too.

I voted 'No' in the poll, I failed to see how a double header PPV could lose its bigger bout and remain good value to customers. I assume the rescheduled Wlad v Fury bout will be PPV as well? I thought before that the SKY/Hearn situation was bad for boxing and this just rubber stamps it. I would have bought the double header but not this, Hearn will kill off the enthusiasm of long term fans for the pleasure of the casuals, though I hope the casuals do not buy this.

They are still advertising the Brook v Chaves fight as box office on Sky sports news so it's looking as if he's sticking with it! If the Fury fight is rescheduled for November then we'll have Brook, Fury then AJ all on PPV within two months in the run up to Christmas! Another example of Hearn, Adam Smith and that bladder with a mouth Barney Francis treating boxing fans with utter contempt! They're all as bad as each other.
