    I am VERY unhappy with Eddie Hearn

    How many PPV events does he want to put on this year? People cant afford it, it's an absolute joke. Not to mention many people view Sky Sports via outlets other than ****** or Sky itself, thus rendering PPV events useless as you can only watch them through these two channels.

    Lets not forget that in 2010 Sky chose to drop ALL boxing PPVs due to the appalling display of Audley Harrison v David Haye. Remind me, who promoted Harrison in that fight? Yes, you guessed it, Eddie the **** lip Hearn.

    It was, in fact, Eddie's first boxing promotion!! What a proper horse siht **** head ****.

    EDDIE HEARN - Can you justify this Brook rubbish being PPV? Don't give me any of that "Crysler jeep salesman i have a massive ccok b0llocks". I want an honest answer you 6 foot of ****.

    What a massive ****.

      I have some sympathy for him with the Brook situation because it's essentially Wladimir Dr. Bottle Job Klitschko who has ruined what would have been a very good PPV double header.

      Brook will have been guaranteed a purse that was likely based around a percentage of the PPV buys.

      Putting Joshua on PPV in his first real fight is an absolute joke though.

        Well then Eddie shouldn't make promises he cant keep.

        No way is the fighter more important than the fan.

        Eddie needs to break his promise to his boyfriend and drop the PPV. He can pay Kel in bum bandit pink pounds.

          Is that actually happening?

          Terrible if true. Joshua should be fighting infront of as many people as possible at this stage

          Brook situation isnt great for him but Fury vs Wlad is the main event for that PPV. Will they now have a PPV for Brook and a PPV for Fury vs Wlad?

          Matchroom are feeling the effects of Sky spunking all their money on Premier League rights imo. Big boxing matchups have to pay for themselves at the moment

            I'm pretty sure it is. Not been confirmed by Hearn but Bob Arum alluded to it when he explained why Quigg-Donaire didn't happen.

            Also Frampton-Quigg is having to go on next year because of no PPV dates. Fury also said that the Klitschko fight might not happen till next year because Sky have no PPV dates left.

            All signs point to December 12th being PPV. Hearn will try and justify it with a "monster undercard" which will feature a list of big names in mismatches.

              Mate, all of those fights will now be separate PPV events. They'll all also be £20 as SKY has scrapped £14.99 PPV for boxing, it's now a flat £20 no matter who's fighting.

              Eddie Hearn is worth an estimated £45m

              Fans have to now pay on average at least 4 PPV events a year, all of which go towards Eddie's wallet.

              As i've mentioned on numerous occasions, Eddie Hearn is a thief, a batty and an absolute ****.

                Of course it will be PPV. Just look at the build-up for Joshua-Whyte like it was Ali-Frazier or something. That fight will be over in the first two rounds.

                Hearn needs to get Joshua on a PBC card in the US to start building him outside the UK..

                    Totally agree, 2015 has been an absolute joke. Sky, which charges a premium monthly subscription, puts on terrible card after terrible card and doesn't even showcase most American fights. Where's all the money gone? There is some straight up embezzlement here.

                    The PPVs are absolute dog ****, not a single card worthy of 4 quid let alone 14.
