Agree. Whoever decided that McDonnell should be chief support got it badly wrong

this is true, the guy is a guaranteed bore. i thought burton v shinkin was going to be the main support as that looked highly likely to be a great fight (it was) but then they stuck it on first on tv on the freeview bit just to draw punters in - superb business tactic i suppose, but wish they had spared us mcdonnell. i paid for a ticket to watch kell brook last time and ended up watching mcdonell boring everyone to death and then eubank blasting some hapless tool out. i cant take any more of him.

At least the next Brook fight is being advertised as Sky Sports 1 rather than Sky Box Office. Although it would have been pretty hilarious if they tried to sell us that one.

I've not paid for a PPV in years. If everyone stops buying the PPVs. Then they would cease to exist. Simply really.

Never realised the Burton v shinkwin fight was freeview to up the buy rate.
