Joshua v Klitschko in Vegas?

[Beanz]

I've been looking for an excuse to return to Vegas - this just might be it.....

Didn't you go over for the Hatton / Floyd fight ? I think the Brits and our supporters help make it an even bigger spectacle.

I was thinking that they're not going to be queuing up in Vegas to put another Klitschko fight on but at least one casino will come up with some money hoping Joshua can bring a Hatton sized crowd over with him. They're definitely going to lose out with the UK PPV money though if it's on at four am UK time. Unless a casino puts up a big wedge a German stadium is probably the best way to keep everybody happy.

Germany viewers get the fight on free TV and UK/USA viewers pay for the fight. Fantastic con that people have been brought into.

RTL (German TV) paid a reported £4 million for AJ-Wlad, it's not the BBC who have this fantastic con that requires by law you give them money without any say in what it gets spent on.

Instead of constantly attacking the greedy fighters for making "more than they deserve" and "mug" fans that pay them remember you pay for a station that doesn't even show boxing.

I do not blame the fighters, I blame the promoters and the TV companies for allowing this business model to flourish so that they can pocket the profits for themselves.

I get that but the fighters benefit most, so you might as well say they're not worth the money they get paid.

AJ-Wlad - £30 million was amassed from UK PPV.

You expect them to leave all those millions behind for the sake of who? You. Because you're unwilling to pay for your entertainment.

Now for people that can't afford it then it's entirely different, fuck, i'm even ditching this Sky lark now. However, it still doesn't change the fact it's the fighters that benefit.

Fighters benefit but they are used as an excuse by promoters and TV companies for doing this when it is they that are pushing it to maximise their profits. Sky have grossly over paid on the football so have to recoup their money back and one way is the excessive use of ppv.

If these people stopped pushing ppv the fighters would have little option but to take the next best deal. It is in the interest of Sky and Eddie to manufacture these fight to be ppv when they are clearly not.

Bruno was no pioneer he was pissed off that sky had made their fight ppv as he wanted a percentage of it. I am not blaming the fighters but it is not them demanding the fights be ppv.
