      There are good tests for Calum Smith and Degale but in reality there is only one world title fight on the card and even that is a bit iffy.

      Joshua will flatten a shop worn Sprott.
      As long as you're talking about McDonnell's being the world title fight.

      Quigg ain't a world champ, he drew with Salinas. Even if McDonnell's WBA regular belt is just as manufactured, he is the stripped IBF champion through no fault of his own.

        Really looking forward to see the progression with Smith, Joshua and even Degale (looks like he might have found a new level) but def not arsed with seeing the headliners. Who actually is?? who ever buys it for Cleverly-Bellew has been tricked into thinking its a fight much more relevant than it is.

          It's really a question of unfortunate timing with the PPV move. I always wanted to see the rematch, these two fighters have a rivalry which is virtually unparalleled in boxing today. I mean it's real beef and that usually makes for a good fght. It would be more PPV worthy if Bellew was now a world champ and Cleverly this time was challenging for the belt - so a REVERSAL of what happened last time.. but that aint the case, it's still a damn awesome match up

            This. Jamie Mcdonnell is a legit world champion who got ****ed by the IBF. I can see him doing well against the other world champions at that weight too.

              Limey Fury and ***** Power coming to the UK.

              At least that card is 10x better then the crappy PPV's we used to get over here.

                It's a great overall card but just not PPV worthy. It doesn't matter how stacked the undercard is, in order for people to pay them fat stacks the main event has got to be high-stakes and compelling.

                Literally the only PPV that comes to mind that people may have bought based on the co-main event is Floyd vs Canelo when, Garcia vs Matthysse were the warm-up, and even then it was always the main event people were shelling out for.

                Hearns logic in putting this on is shaky at best and it'll show when it brings in some seriously poor buy figures.

                  That is a big call. Sky promotes Matchroom's cards very well and for that reason I see many British boxing fans buying this card.

                  Cleverly wins in a fight that will mirror his first fight with Bellew. Neither Bellew or Cleverly can fight any other way

                    Their "rivalry" is cringe worthy.
