No way they can justify this as PPV.
I ALMOST booked tickets for this earlier today on the basis that Bellew was going to be fighting Clev. Thank fuck I didn't and plumped for the ppv instead.
Fighting Aleksy Kuziemsi instead.
Be interesting to see what Sky do with this...
Gutted mate Tony will be too might not get a shot like this again, that cunt Brehmers fault, was apparently getting paid 300k the tit.
Only in boxing this crap pisses me off. Proper gutted :mad:
NO way they can justify 15 quid for this shite, i no not Warren or Skys faullt but jesus, this will be a joke if you have to pay for this shower of shite.Quote:

I bought my ticket mainly for the Groves V Degale fight but was looking forward to seeing how Cleverly would handle the step up, Bellew stepping in was a decent consolation although it was no world title fight the animosity between them made it very appealing.
This new change of opponent is pretty disappointing. I feel sorry for everyone staying home to watch it if it is PPV cant see how it can be justified a few years ago it would have surely been standard sky sports show.
I hope this opponent turns out to be a nightmare and makes a fight of it.
Frank Warren is a even greedier cunt.
Come back itv always forgiven!!!!!
Britain and sky always fuck it up
clev had the option of fighting bellew at a catch weight and he chose not to
i would say if he asked every one of the fans what they would like to him to do i reckon they would say the bellew fight
Catchweight would have been good, dont see why he wouldnt have taken itQuote:

I probably won't pay for it now, might just head to sports cafe & watch it there
That is a good point mate, tickets for the event and the PPV would of been sold on the basis of a World Title fight, so there could of been some legal problems maybe for Warren if the Bellew fight went ahead at a catch weight.Quote:

More realistically it speaks volumes on the preorders of the DeGale vs Groves fight.
