Chris Eubank Jrs fight on ITV isn't terrible.

[Primo Carnera]

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.

oxymoron

a figure of speech in which apparently contradictory terms appear in conjunction (e.g. faith unfaithful kept him falsely true ).
So I might not be an Oxbridge graduate, but "Free PPV" fits the bill in my book, but if I'm wrong I apologise.
And besides, your idea is flawed because technically the Carl Frampton fight against the poor guy who died the other day was the first free PPV . So they've already had the old "try before you buy."
You accused people of misunderstanding you, but you're misunderstanding them. The fight is ok, but the PPV aspect is ridiculous.
