    Froch vs Taylor to be shown in the UK!!!

    Online PPV I'm afraid - £9 lol. If it was £5 I would have bought it.

    Looks like I won't be watching this one. I'm not paying £9 to watch Froch. I would rather pay £7 for a months worth of Setanta online, which would be showing the Froch fight anyway if he wasn't so greedy.

    Looks like a stream for me.

    omg absolutely pathetic, if hes so confident of beating Taylor why not take something like 50-80k from ITV to show a delayed broadcast on a Sunday afternoon, and have 3-5 million people view and create an even bigger fan base and have people talking about you on a Monday morning at work? or have just a thousand people watch you online and create no buzz around yourself.

      Exactly. I guarantee this ppv gets less than 5,000 viewers.

        Thanks for info I thought we weren't getting it at all . Paul Appelby Martin Lyndsay's on next Saturday as well . The Froch Tayor fight will probably be late on tho

          I doubt he will make more money with this than taking whatever setanta or ITV are offering, apart from fans on forums like this how will people know about it? Froch is being a ****** he'll be lucky if he gets 2000 people to pay £9 for a stream over the intenet.

            Man I think this is going to be some fight tbh. I've been looking forward to this one as much as Hatton Pac Haye Klitschko , should be plenty of action on it .

              Shame a lot of people won't be seeing it.

                Likewise. This should have been on Setanta (which I already subscribe to), and it's purely down to Froch with his ridiculous comparison to the Calzaghe v. RJJ fight that it isn't. I hope he wins and all, but I'm not forking out to support Froch's idiocy. This will generate nothing like the money for him that a sensible deal with Setanta would have done.
