I said this would happen a couple of months back. Straight onto fucking PPV. :rolleyes:
Arthur-Cook, Harrison-Rogan, Khan-no-name = PPV all day long where SKY are concerned :rolleyes:
Who is Breidis Prescott?
Sky Sports | Boxing | News | Khan signs up for Sky
Intresting... so Warren is back with Sky ?
wonder if he will be moving his account over from Setanta ?
no way is he PPV yet IMO... i didnt think Hattons last fight was PPV quality so this deffo aint.
I knew Sky would make Khan PPV but thought it would be when he fights for the "world" title. Obviously, because the undercard is impressive they've took the piss.
Khan is FINALLY fighting someone that can bang - Prescott has 17 kos in 19 fights. But he must be UTTER shit for them to risk this.. still gonna back him for the early KO though
Just checked his record and it is well padded... BUT unbeaten, 17 kos in 19 fights against no hopers but still unbeaten and a nice way forward for Khan.Quote:

If that guy can really bang he certainly wont be good enough to lay a glove on Khan.. Sports Network really are the masters at digging out nobodies with impressive looking records.
Looking at the bill again, it's NO better than the Sports Network shows that have been on ITV for the past couple of years.
Shocking PPV.

I for one will not be bothering with this its a sham.
Its a fucking joke. how can they put somone like Khan on PPV. Correct me if i'm wrong but I think that Hattons first PPV was v Tszyu so at least we got 40ish fights to build upto it. How can they put him on Box office when he hasn't fought anyone of substance. I hope he gets KO'd off this nobody.

E-Mail Sky your views i have so have lots of people on different forums, maybe they will listen but i doubt it.
And if its Sept 6th that gives his opponent less than 4wks prep time infact 3wks.
Suppose he's no nearer a title shot than JCCjr and he's PPV so it was going to happen sooner or later.
Absolute shite tho. Complete con. Shit likes this makes me wanna cancel sky and sorta makes me wanna see Khan knocked out. :mad:
lol@ his next opponent .. check the records of the guys he has faced
F***ing Joke
Wint even got to the pub to watch this hope they get the message
well i expected this sooner or later.
Hatton's first PPV was against Oliveira.. but it was sold as the British leg of the Klitschko-Danny Williams Vegas fight.Quote:

Sounds like someone in the UK has been taking a page from the book of American promoters. If someone from the general public can say "I've heard of him" about two fighters on a single card make it PPV. I've bought many PPV's in my day, but I will only pay for good matchmaking not fighter showcasing. That's why I didn't pay for Pac-Diaz, but I did pay for Margarito-Cotto.
Even with the half recognisable bill I just don't see this selling.
If the figures are shit maybe Sky will drop him to Sky Sports until he's won something of note. Or will he have to fight on Sky Box Office from now on if that's the contract Warren has signed with Sky?
I want be buying it, no way for Khan!:rolleyes:
