...on Fury/Wlad card according to the BN24 forum.

Would be a great addition to the card if true. :TU:

That would be a right result if so, be great for the card, and great exposure for both fighters.

I reckon the rematch will be a much better affair than the 1st, I think Eubank will probably struggle early a little, but he looks to me like he's learnt his lesson about starting faster now. If Saunders slows down significantly, as he did last time around, he's going to be in trouble, and could wind up losing the decision. I don't think he's going to be able to just box at a leisurely pace against Jr this time.

If BJS was fitter the first time around he would of won every round ...i think you will see the same thing again ,BJS outboxes him in my opinion once again :box:

Can't really take ESB seriously as a source, especially when the poster is claiming it will be part of BN's first PPV when it's already been confirmed that it will be part of the subscription and by Hearn that Sky won't be picking Fury-Klitschko 2 up as a PPV, whether through Sky Sports or not.

I do think it will happen and Warren alluded to it being announced this week, but it won't be on the Fury-Klitschko card.

Could still be 'allegedly's first PPV' in fairness, as it could be available via Sky PPV but 'free' to subscribers as they were alluding to in the interview with George. As for Hearn....he has nothing to do with non-Sports PPV, as previously mentioned by Bunny.

Frank said he had Wembley held for if BJS/Eubank could be made for the Fury/Klitscho card. I can't see any way that it ends up on there now.

Correct.

How are people getting confused by this? Any allegedly PPV would obviously not be at any extra cost to subscribers ffs, it would be commercial suicide.

From memory Frank said something about an issue with the actual logistics, so it might be that subscribers would need to pay for it and then be refunded, but it would be no additional charge.

I think there will be an additional charge, they're not going to give anyone a £15 PPV for £12, but you won't have to pay £12 then £15 on top. The way they were talking about it, it seems like subscribers will have to order the PPV on top of the subscription, then be given the following month free.

Re. above two posts, can see that if that's the only way to wok it but fundamentally the point stands that subscribers wouldn't be paying any extra - and as long as that's the case, which it would be, as a subscriber I couldn't give a f*ck about the logistics of it.

Not being funny or anything but given the promoter I would rather the cash stayed in my bank than goes into his, for him to send back to me later, if it's all the same.

It sounds extremely complicated. If BN make a pigs ear of this, they run the risk of putting people off subscribing to BN in the future.

If this is true, I can't see anything other than BJS win. I actually think he'll do it more comfortably this time around.

The Traveller does seem to be somewhat of an expert at the boxing. I would tip his knowledge over Eubank’s strength and fitness.
Eubank will benefit from his Dad’s knowledge a lot also but I give Saunders the edge, on boxing skills. Agree...if he was in mint shape he could probably make it lop-sided.

Would like to see this again. Eubank Jnr on points this time. I think BJS will be in slightly better shape this time and I can't see Eubank starting so slow. Both will pick up rounds then it could come down to the championship rounds and Eubanks better fitness will see him edge it.

If it happens, it's 50/50.... I would even lean towards Jnr points. He's improved a lot.

Won a nice little lump on the last fight and I will be lumping it all back on Billy's joe again if this fight goes ahead. He's just to good for Eubank plain and simple.

Good fight. Hope the rumours are true but won't believe Junior has signed the dotted line til a press conference is announced.

As for the fight I'd favour Jr on points. He's improved enough to outwork BJS who still switches off late.
