    with a competition like this how would people feel about PPV for the whole tournament?

    would people be willing to pay something like £30/£40 to get the entire tournament rather than paying £10/£15 for the fights they decide are PPV worthy?

    No fuck PPV and subscriptions!

    Not even Master - the worlds biggest miserable cheapskate ponce - can moan about this (he still will as Eddie has fighters in it). No BoxNation or Sky subs, great matches all on the freemans. Excellent.

    If Eubank or the odd Brit matchup/later rounds are PPV, fine. None of the cruisers will be PPV.

    Yeah but for example if they make the following fights PPV :

    quater finals
    Groves v Cox
    Jr v Yildirim

    semi finals
    Jr v Groves

    final
    Jr/Groves v Smith

    at £15 a fight then that comes to £60, how about the option of £30 before the tournament starts to guarantee you get all of the fights for that price regardless of who is on the PPV

    Yeah that's a good idea if you'd prefer that sort of thing, however, you're assuming those fights take place. What if Jr, Groves or Smith lose? These aren't "gimme" mismatches.

    Regardless.. I think it's terrific that we get a couple of months of consecutive world-class Saturday night boxing without being on subscription platforms. Reason? We still get the SKY/Matchroom and Warren/BN content. The only moan i've got is the fights will clash.

    ITV getting this couldn't have worked out better.

    They should have ensured that it was going to be a Groves v Junior finals they are the biggest names.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Jesus.. that is some fucked up logic.

    They should fix it so the biggest names don't have to earn the right to win?

    C.Smith, Cox, Yildirim and Brant - four young totally unexposed unbeaten fighters, boring, I don't know them so they shouldn't get a chance. Deary, deary me

    Are they fuck? Don't be so fucking stupid. Typical if someone who thinks Name is the most important thing.
    So if there was a guy called Muhammad Ali, he'd go straight to the top of the pile without proving anything? Smh!
