Comments Thread For: Wilder-Helenius Likely On October 15 At Barclays Center, To Headline FOX Sports PPV

Ppv must have been the only way Fox would air this.

Would make more sense to have Ortiz v Ruiz and this on Fox TV, then the winners fight on PPV.

Or to have a double-header like PBC did once for the Charlo Brothers! If Wilder vs. Helenius, and Ruiz vs. Ortiz were on the same card, I would pay $75 for that!

Should be on free Fox to get Wilder's name back out there in the public...

...and dang they are old...

Ill watch it if i get paid.

TFW Wilder's next opponent is better than Fury's next opponent.

Ppv - absurd and insulting to fans. Showtime worthy instead of another pbc ppv main event mismatch.

Frick yea!!! I am not sure why folks are mad about paying for a fight. They fight for money, people need to get paid, and I want to watch a fight. I would never let anger get in the way of my enjoyment. This will be a fireworks fight with some great implications for future fights!

Haymon just can’t pay his fighter’s those large purses like he used to that’s why he has to put everything on Ppv.

Decent return fight for Wilder but this should be a Fox TV card, not a PPV.

It doesn’t seem like good business sense to bring Wilder back on ppv after back to back losses.

It's becoming increasingly obvious that FOX and PBC's relationship is on borrowed time. It seems like Fox is investing little-to-nothing on boxing.

But he's NOT putting everything on PPV. Charlo vs. Castano was not PPV, and that was for Undisputed @ 154. The Showtime cards are better and they're not PPV. Next week's card on SHO (Broner vs. Figueroa) is better than Ruiz vs. Ortiz, and it's not PPV!

I wonder if Spence vs. Crawford will land on FOX? That will tell us if FOX is on the way out!
