Comments Thread For: Haye: Fury Fight Would Be Fun, But There is No Deal

Don't worry, he won't.

As soon as he found out that Froch had re-established Sky PPV after he single handedly ruined it a few years ago, his hand started to magically hurt.

Obviously you don't know what you are talking about.

All of Haye's PPVs have been successes with the box office.
The reason they closed it down was because there weren't any fights to be made. Simple.

Haha funny stuff. Sky Sports literally stopped doing box office, they made it official. Im not making this up.

There was so much backlash from the Haye-Harrison ******** that Haye was forced to finally stop ducking Wlad and make that fight if he wanted to continue on PPV.

Then after the whole toe debacle and his lame performance in the Wlad fight, Sky stopped doing PPV completely.

Official? Give me some proof then.

THE official Sky boxing promoter said in an interview a month ago, that Box office was never turned off, just that there were no fights to make. Head of Sky boxing said the same in February on twitter once the Kessler-Froch fight was made. I trust both their judgement more than yours.

I suggest you give me a fight that could have been on Sky box office between July 2011 and May 2013.

It's pretty common knowledge. Here's one source I just found on Google....

What fights could have been on Box Office? Any involving British boxers. Any of Froch's fights. Amir Khan's fight. Remember Khan was on Box Office until they stopped doing it because of Haye.

Lol. I hate to tell you this, but Khan lost his box office status before Haye even fought Wladimir.

And no, all of Froch's fights couldn't have been on PPV. His fight against Ward was in America - No box office. His profile simply wasn't big enough in the uk at the time to make it on box office. Not even against Bute and certainly not against Mack. this is coming from Eddie Hearn, his promoter, not my words.

The article you pull up:

"Haye vs Harrison was a sham that apparently the public in the UK bought into (for reasons that elude me to this day), and Klitschko vs Haye was just a letdown. Throw in the Nathan Cleverly farce on May 21 with repeated replacement opponents, and the Amir Khan disaster in April, and you've got a recipe for a decision like this one."

Haye didn't exactly "single handidly" destroy box office did he?

Yes but after Haye-Harrison.....Sky became very reluctant to put fights on Box Office after that sham of a fight. It basically forced Haye to stop ducking Wlad cos otherwise he'd have lost his Box Office status too.

And so Amir Khan losing his ppv status was because Haye-Harrison ******? Not because he didn't do enough numbers? The same with Cleverly? Come on man, if you do the numbers, you go on PPV.

Haye did the numbers with both Harrison and Wlad. Why did Sky stop PPV completely after those fights? Because Haye fleeced the public and there was a huge backlash.

Whatever you say about Khan, he always gives value for money. Khan's last fight before he got shafted off Sky was against Maidana. He then broke the record for buys on Primetime against McCloskey in his next fight so I don't think he was doing too badly. Sky chose to stay in bed with Haye.
