Everyone knew Warren/BoxNation were given the elbow when the purse bids were scrapped. Poor old Frank has refused to mention it ever since. He lost Floyd-Pac to SKY and now Fury-Wlad after putting all the work into promoting it.

what does warren was given the elbow when the purse bids were scrapped mean?

Mick Hennessy - Tyson's promoter - did a deal with K2 (Wlad) which shut Warren out. No need to be on BoxNation when you can sell the fight to a bigger company - hence SKY PPV.

£30 a month for the sky sports package in order to watch maybe the boxing on a Saturday night every couple of days, but wait if thats not enough we will also charge you an extra £18 so you can watch Tyson Fury

sorry but Fury - Wlad is not a PPV fight, this is why I always championed BoxNation, that was £10 a month and at its peak there was quality fights on every week, you pay your subscription you get all fights that are shown, none of this bollocks of pay a subscription for some fights and then pay a box office premium for a sub standard fight thats being held up by a sub standard undercard.

Someone said this before, but it's only £30 + £15 for the Ppv!

that isnt that much, for example my sky and ppv is paid for before my lunch break of my first day at work that month.

It isnt that bad.

Maybe but if you live alone and come the end of the month often end up buying a loaf of bread on your credit card the £45 is a fair old whack of money

Now I feel sad, lonely and skint :-(

I love boxing but I am not paying slimy cunts like sky and hennesy for a fight that is free in Germany.
