Even better. If the fight happens and is on regular bn there can be no complaints. I'm going to the fight though, if it happens.

Well the Warren's during their famous interview said that it wouldn't cost us allegedly subscribers anything. Essentially just a better advertised and easier means of non allegedly subsribers of buying 1 fight or 1 months subscription.

That's what I've heard - just part of the package for regular viewers and a PPV fee for non-subcribers.

I've heard nothing to confirm this but I think there is a very good chance that this will be a joint headliner with Saunders v Golovkin at the Etihad. In all fairness that would be a massive show and make a lot of sense with Golovkin being a K2 fighter

Saunders chose to fight the world's no.50 Max Bursak instead of GGG. Do you really believe that he wants to fight him?

I think he'd he like serious money and is very confident in his ability. If he'd get the same money for Golovkin as say Eubank or Jacobs I think he'd fight the later two everyday. To me the big issue with this fight is just how well would GGG sell over here?

Fans think about legacys - fighters think about pay cheques. Cannae blame either side for that but if GGG means the most money I'd fully expect Saunders to take it

Bursak is a low pay, low risk fight. I don't see Saunders developing a big following so for good money he needs to face good fighters.

Warren and Saunders would love Eubank as it is probably the same money, possibly better, than GGG at a fraction of the risk.

I think with Saunders he wants it but just wanted some time first, let GGG get a bit older, get his fitness up a bit.

Yeah, Saunders wants GGG just as much as Quigg & Frampton want Rigo.

Golovkin shouldn't be second on any bill.

Fury vs. Klitschko 2
BJS vs. GGG/Eubank jr
Flanagan vs. TBA
& local undercard fighters.

Fury brings the travellers and Mancs so add BJS to increase the travellers present and Flanagan to increase the Mancs present.
W@rren could go all in on this PPV card...

Warren cried to a regulator and forced Sky to have allegedly shown on Sky box office. They cant have two ppv in close proximity though. So now if both Joshua and Fury fight are in early July how are they going to decide which is going on Sky box office?

W@rren has to buy his way onto Sky PPV according to what I heard, so they could have the 2 PPVs on the same night.
Sky Box Office and Sky Sports Box Office are run separately as I understand it...

Whyte said he should be healthy by then, could get a nice little heavyweight fight with someone people know. Obviously it would be an easy fight, still be cool to see though, and he's always entertaining to watch. Chisora could also fight a club fighter to keep busy and build hype for his fight with Whyte, though since he split with Warren that could be awkward. The fights them selves won't be great anyway, but I think it'd be a slick move.

Hughie could also fight, it'd be good to get him exposure.

Daniel Jacobs could also fight Saunders, since they've had a back and forth.

It could be a co-main event, it'd make sense as I bet quite a few would watch it for GGG-BJS rather than Wlad Fury if that did happen.

They are run separately and Warren ppv on Sky Box office will be a allegedly show. However in term of how many PPVs they can have on SBO same commercial principles apply. Thats how I understand it anyway. So SBO will have to decide if show is PPV worthy and which one to choose if there are more then one.

Here's another one that I'd post a picture of my bare arse for.

What's your next suggestion Wes? Saunders v Eubank, Smith v Cotto, Flanagan v Crolla and Elvis Presley vs JFK, maybe Princess Diana vs Camilla Parker Bowles in a mud wrestling contest just to get the casuals and toffs demographic interested?
