Re: Joshua v Klitschko in Vegas?
Primo, what is wrong with you? I am saying there is no need for ppv format. It happens in US and UK for boxing fans but not in Germany where Wlad is more popular than AJ will ever be.

Mate, I detest some of these ridiculous PPV's as much as you do. I also feel that Joe Public is getting rinsed in the UK .
But you have to be realistic and accept that the reason there are more PPV's is because of the demand of the fighters. Yes , promoters and TV Stations are making money, but that's what they're there to do.
And you turn around and say "fighters are earning but they'll be retired soon , but the promoters and TV Leeches will still be taking the money."
Well , you could actually turn that around and say "The fighters are taking the money out of the sport and will ride off into the sunset, but the promoters and TV will carry on investing in the sport and putting money back into it."
Hey, the top fighters know their market value and best of luck to them. But you can't deny the Promoters and TV the money they make because they're stumping up the dough and taking the risks!
Bit of perspective needed bud.

They invest to make money and make huge profits any risks/mistakes they make they pass it on to subscribers. Let's not feel too sorry for them.

Trust me, NOBODY ever feels sorry for them. But you have to have balance and accept the fighters role in this.
Fighters have not created this ppv platform it was there before they came and will be there long after they retire.

how can that be? If there were no Fighters, there would be no ppv! Am I missing something here?

It was there long before Joshua and will be after he retires.
Re: Joshua v Klitschko in Vegas?
I do not care about others, Bellew is now a ppv fighter, it is a joke.
Re: Joshua v Klitschko in Vegas?
850,000 PPV buys for Bellew's last fight.
Greedy fighters have ruined the sport (even though it's more popular than ever)

It is not popular because of ppv. I never said greedy fighters have ruined the sport TV companies and promoters have. Even 1 subscription to ppv is a success to them.

Stop talking rubbish mate. so 1 person subscribes , they make a LOSS! let's be sensible bud. Nobody has "ruined" the sport, it is in rude health.
but don't be one of these guys that wants to have a pop at the bigwigs just because it feels macho and right to do so, yet still want to be pally pally and refuse to offer even a tiny critique to the people who are taking the majority of the money and taking it out of the sport. Just because you want to feel like the fighters are straight up working guys like you , and "one of our own."
do you expect the promoters and TV to carry on paying these Boxers the same money , yet not charge PPV? therefore losing money?
mate , I have no clue of what you do in the real World , but seem typical of the type of person who:
a. has never run a business in your life - nothing wrong with that , but don't criticize things you have no clue about. and
b. probably when talking about their Soccer club and the Chairman says things like "he needs to spend £50 million on that Striker!" easy to spend other people's money, but do you know how few people have £50 million washing around that they can throw about? and if they do, why the fuck should they be told how to spend their dough.
Be reasonable.

Re: Joshua v Klitschko in Vegas?
Do they do PPV in Germany where Wlad is popular? So it does not have to exist.
