Which fight do more people want to watch?
That is literally the only question you need to ask about PPV. From a business point of view Hearn may have a point; building Groves and Eubank on free to air ITV to build up their PPV fight may have been better than charging for lower-level fights for both.

Most of my circle would prefer Groves/Eubank tbh, in fact all, I'd say.

The AJ fight will probably double the PPV fight numbers between Groves/Eubank

The point wasn't about a small group of your mates. The question was rhetorical in case you didn't understand.
