[Other Sport] Fury vs Chisora 3 £26.95 PPV

[Herr Tubthumper]

This fight won't last that long, I'll wager ...

True, but the entire evening with the undercard will.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

It'd be quite funny if Chisora won.

It's just a shame that no one would be there to see it if he did.

And those that do witness it will have frozen to death.

The only undercard fight announced is Daniel Dubois defending the WBA "regular" Heavyweight title (whatever that is) against Kevin Lerena (Who he? Ed.)

This is just Fury looking for easy paydays from mugs. Now if he had a "put up or shut up" tear-up with Usyk then I'd be in. But Fury aint getting rich on my hard earned. He can f right off!

And then he said he’d come back and fight for half a billion. Well, apart from the fights he then said he’d do for free.

I had an email earlier this week from ticketmaster offering me a ticket for £65. Not bad considering the PPV is just leas than half

Frank Warren claiming 58,000 seats sold* Saturday night, I‘m predicting a huge no show of paying customers

In all seriousness, and I’ve been lucky enough to have met Frank on a number of occasions and he’s a top man, but this whole promotion made no sense from the start.

The Bugner/Bruno scenario from 1987, the Carl Frampton open air show in Belfast when it was so cold the judges could barely hold their pens, both promotions nowhere near December.

Don’t really understand high end taxation laws, but could it be that Top Rank ( The US promoters) can afford to make a huge loss on a show with the American tax rules?

*He might be including comps, I’ve been offered two lots this week, but will instead be in the warm in Worthing having paid my PPV money, more so for the Dubois fight than the main event.

Ring walk now 9pm instead of the normal 10, probably weather related.

Something to do with the license they have to be out by 10.30

Like the old winter pub closing, 10.30.

It was 11.30 for AJ vs Usyk at the Lane, anti Romany?

I succumbed for the same reason.

Dubois came back superbly there, was in massive trouble in that first round

Something didn’t sit right with me about that, why did Larena pretty much not throw a single punch for 2 rounds after having Dubois down 3 times? Very strange.

Thought the stoppage was incorrect as well, the final blow came after the bell, odd time for a referee to step in.

it did seem pretty odd. Larena had started well and had every chance to finish the job but didn't seem to try

 

[Lenny Rider]

Frampton totally coating Shane McGuigan over not pulling Dubois out with concussion at the end of the first round, now there’s a surprise


But is there really 60,000 there?
