    I feel like people are misunderstanding me.

    I never said it was a good ppv.

    ‘n I say …… it correctly.

    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.

    No longer listed on boxrec. Could be for any number of reasons but no one would be surprised if it was off.
    When God said to the both of us "Which one of you wants to be Sugar Ray?" I guess I didnt raise my hand fast enough

    Eubank Jr is shameless this fight is a insult to Boxing fans.!
    A PPV the opponent he seems to spout shit like his old man I for one have found it to be tiresome.
    In the beginning it was entertaining now he's just ridiculous.

    Eubank Jr is a talented but his dilutions of grandeur is his father.
    The both have played the public it is a great pity they never put there brains into gear before there mouth.
    Yes Boxing is the entertainment businesses but it's not WWE the Eubanks are show men but how long before the show has run its course hopefully not to long.
    Shit we may not like promoter's imagine working with those two idiots hard-work indeed.
