BoxRec

Where is the sport going with circus shit like this on at a 4 am on Box Office yet we couldn't get Josh Taylor or Castano Charlo undisputed fights even televised??

Shit like this, Haye Founier, De Le Hoya return, Logan Paul, Brook Khan 10 years late. Campbell Hatton + Conor Benn hype

Is this the end of the sport we love as a serious entity. It is now social media crap and circus acts in white collar style boxing.

Mr Love island Tommy Fury and Dubois against journeymen. I mean come on ffs.

Only hope is it appears to be on a Sunday night at 4am so will tank hard. Amazing they're doing PPV for this. And couldn't bother doing Josh Taylor or Charlo Castano etc

Buy my PPV you mug and cry into your pillow afterwards

I never understand boxing fans getting flummoxed about this sort of guff, it's all about numbers and also with the Paul/Fury fight being mooted it's a no-brainer, it is what it is, it's sh1te but really when you got the stuff with Fury/Wilder, Spence/Crawford, who can blame Jake Paul for taking over boxing?

The numbers don't add up though, this will tank hard especially on a Sunday night at 4am. The comments alone are all berating it.

Fury and Paul aren't even fighting each other

Wake up Sunday morning and watch it free online

I’m surprised Sky Sports didn’t have it.. they way they have hyped it. They did all the leg work lol.

So Sky and BT can’t give UK boxing fans world class boxers from the US, but they can give us this..

Well done.

I don't get it either, but don't underestimate these people as they know what they are doing

Whatever we think this Internet person will end up earning more in his fights than 99% of world champions

Duplicate

The people who will make this fight pay, aren’t commenting on any serious boxing forum.

Jake is better known than Josh Taylor to the casuals.

If you wake up Sunday morning, it won’t even be anywhere. The fight is taking place 29th.

So will he Monday morning.

Don’t mean to sound like a prick.

100% this.

The Josh Taylor's need to adapt.
Boxing has always been more about hype - the Ray Robinson's and Ali's knew how to sell themselves outside of the boxing ring; the Charley Burley's And even Joe Calzaghe for much of his career were happy to just box and avoid everything outside the ring.

As trash as what these celebrity contests are, they show what modern day boxers have got to do.

It’s just nonsense. It only works really because there isn’t any real objective measurement of their ability. It would be more entertaining to have a celebrity influencer try and beat old Daley Thompson at the Decathlon or something. But probably it wouldn’t really work as it would be too obvious neither party was any sort of athlete anymore.

Will you seriously buy this? I honestly wouldn’t even bother watching live if it was free, considering it’s on at like 4am on a Monday morning.

I'll be watching at 4 am...

This will bomb hugely like the last one did on Sky and that had Mayweather. If it was a success Sky wouldn't have let it go. I keep on hearing how big the Paul brothers are but their 'millions' of UK fans aren't buying their PPVs on a Monday morning and having Dubois and Tommy Fury won't make any difference. It's not like Tommy Fury is the talk of the town in Britain is it? The only person who seems to bang on about him is allegedly and I imagine he's as in touch with Instagram as Jocob Rees Mogg is in touch with the man in the street.
