Re: Chris Eubank Jrs fight on ITV isn't terrible.
This is the first time ITV have done ppv and hopefully it will be the last and it all falls flat on its face.
Eubank's opponent lost to Geale, who is shot and has lost to Cotto at Middleweight before his loss to GGG.

Did he not stop Geale in 2? Only loss is to Jake Carr in a very close fight where he was the away fighter.
Re: Chris Eubank Jrs fight on ITV isn't terrible.
I dont mind the fight. But the PPV needs to flop. Cant have fights like this on PPV! Imagine how shite this card is going to be.

Does not matter Geale was shot and vendettos gave that as a reason why he is good.

I think Frankie Boyle made some very good points.

I didn't at any stage say he is good.
Geale has lost 5 times and Renold Quinlan is the only one to beat him who hasn't been a world champion.
Mentioning also that on boxrec Quinlan is ranked higher than Andre Direll, Badou Jack and Lucian Bute.
and just below Martin Murray, Arthur Abraham and Felix Strum, doesn't mean much but obviously someone rates him.
This is a not a PPV fight fair enough but to bash his opponent just because you don't think hes a name in boxing or because you don't wanna pay to watch the fight is insane.
Re: Chris Eubank Jrs fight on ITV isn't terrible.
If you're having to look for reasons as to why a PPV might be ok, it means it's crap. Serving up crap on PPV is OK, as long as you know people will buy(Joshua V Anyone) But going in at the deep end with a PPV event that is being carried by the Eubanks is fucking insanity.
Re: Chris Eubank Jrs fight on ITV isn't terrible.
It's a lot of things and terrible is certainly one of them. Does Charles Bronson @Andre even know who Renold Quinlan is? Quinlan may have stopped Geale quicker than Golovkin but that was after he lost to Golovkin and a 45 year old Cotto. After Cotto and Golovkin the biggest names on Geales record are Darren Barker, (who as much as I loved the guy was only known here in the UK because he was one of a number of equally talented fighters at the same weight who studiously avoided and never fought each other) who he lost to, and Mundine who of course is a big name in Oz and ...well that's it. The Eubanks might be fooling each other by sharing the same Kool aid fountain but it ain't the real thing and you know it. (and no it's not IRn-Bru either).

I feel like people are misunderstanding me.
I never said it was a good ppv.

No, but you said it wasn't terrible, which is trying to justify it. Well as a PPV, it is terrible. The matchup is fine , but the fight is no more than a decent undercard fight on a non PPV bill.
And then you said "perhaps the 1st one should be free", which is a bit of an oxymoron. If it was free it wouldn't be a PPV , it would be just another fight on ITV.

Firstly lookup the definition of oxymoron :) it's brilliantly terrible.
Secondly yes they should show a few free shows and make people see that they have a decent product before charging for it.
