    Was always going to be a great night. For proper boxing fans this is a better ppv than the one fight wonders that normally take place.

      Yeah? Fair enough.
      Card was stacked, Cleverly fight was a shock I didn't know he was fighting. 3 world title fights I understand your view. But what it comes down to is, what truly is a pay per view fight, and for me to have to pay for a boxing event at home the card needs to be better.

      I'm not comparing it to the utter **** Bellew Vs Cleverly rematch card but can you see where we are now with ppv's?! The standard is dropping a lot.

        Yeah I dont think they should have made this a PPV. This card have made 3 decent regular shows on standard Skysports. But just in terms of comparing it to other PPV's, I prefer this card to the ones where you get one big fight that attracts all the casuals, and the rest are all mismatches and nothing fights (May vs. Pac).

            I don't see how anyone who spent £15 on this show could leave disappointed.

            That was one helluva show.

              yeah, it was four good fights and two exhibitions. of course i wish that pay-per-views didn't even exist, but as long as they do, if last night's bill wasn't worth £15 then what is? although i am somewhat disappointed that i called literally every fight wrong lol

                Right from the opener. I mean, Hibbert vs Ryan was an absolute cracker! Then Cardle and Evans was a good bout. Mitchell-Linares. *** my, that was FOTY so far!

                Add the wrecking ball that is Anthony Joshua, Lee Selby vs a very good world champion in Gradovich and Kell Brook.

                As well as a good scrap with Ryder and Blackwell.

                This was quality from top to bottom. It's these cards that need to be PPV not the Mayweather 12 round snoozefest and Leo Santa Cruz vs Bum on the undercard

                    They claim an 84" reach which is longer than Wlad's.

                    I doubt that's true. He looks more like 81" similar to Wlad.

                    I think his bulk can sort of make his reach look shorter.

                      Linares-Mitchell would have been worth the price on its own tbh.

                      That was a cracking fight.
