      Brits hate Britain. Why do you think they flock to the US if they are lucky, and to Spain and the Gulf? Even most of the Brit celebs leave the country, as quickly as possible. It's gotta be tough, when the US appropriates all of your successful people, especially in the arts, all the successful actors, musicians, and artists are by default American. So the rest are mired in a country, everyone wants to leave.

      It's the country of grey skies, bad food, and racists. Virtually every young Brit I've ever met, wants to leave for either NYC or LA. I don't blame them.

          Why? Froch vs Ward was on normal Sky Sports. Why is the second place play-off on PPV?

              The f*aggy brits who cant take a bit of rain leave and go to America, the rest stay.

              Also to Makaveli its not ppv in America, nor should it be, but in Britain its a huge fight. Well worth 15 of the queens finest pounds.

                Because Froch wasnt as big back then as he is now (after destroying Bute). Kessler is a bigger name than Ward was over here. Also it was just after the Haye Harrison debacle and sky said they were no longer doing ppv's. This is their first one back.

                    Froch isn't that much bigger now. He's not a bigger name than Khan or Haye. Its more PPV worthy than most of their fights, granted. But I still don't see why its being overhyped by Eddie Hearn and co as if its some once in a lifetime event.

                      Its gonna sell mate trust me. Not Hatton numbers but it will sell. Loads of my friends are talking about it, some even got tickets to go see it live, and these are people with very little interest in boxing too.

                      Froch has tapped into the lucrative football watching, pub going, white british market. Not as much as Hatton or Haye, but its where the money is over here.

                      I'll be honest im not a huge fan of PPV in general, but as it is this is worth the money.
