Comments Thread For: David Haye-Mark De Mori Broadcaster Still Undetermined

[Kilrain]

An article based on a tweet Eddie Hearn sent. This counts for boxing journalism these days.

This screams BoxNation to me. Is there some affiliation or history issue that would make that not likely that I'm unaware of?

For sure this doesn't seem Sky Sports level doe. As a supporting bout? Sure. As a main event? Nah.

Not that I'm aware of, Haye-Chisora was on BoxNation, did great numbers and Haye was handsomely paid. Getting this fight would be a bit of a boon for BoxNation.

It would be a clever move by Haye to face this De Mori dude on ITV, terrestrial television will reach an even wider audience a la Frampton and Fury who is now awaiting a ppv date on Sky and the latter who graced Sky Sports for the first time as a ppv fighter, with a huge KO he will be facing Joshua by as early as late summer the UK casual fans demand these match ups and beg to have their money taken off of them.

I understand Hearn will be reluctant to have his cash cow go up before Haye with all the work they have put into having him fight British grudge fights as ppv fights. Gotta love Haye's style, he digs up some creme puff on the level of garbage opponents Joshua has been facing to swing a ppv date in his favor against the guy Sky spent 3-4 years building up.

With box nation it goes to a smaller audience, Haye needs to speculate to accumulate in this one, ITV makes all the sense here, look at Fury and Frampton.

It has to be said that the support card is lack-luster at best!

It's OFFICIAL! The fight will be broadcast on Dave.

[diarraisagod]

Not really interested in this fight. Can imagine the return of David Haye will appeal more to the casual audience than hardcore heads. Would make a lot of sense to put this iffy card on ITV where he might even pick up some I'm a celebrity get me out of here fans who remember him.

As others have said, he should try and look good for as many people as possible this fight and then try and make some £££ in his next one.

Whichever channel broadcasts this, will be quite short of time to promote it.

Turns out there is even a face-off for this garbage

LMAO, "It's been 3 1/3 years since I've been in the ring and knocked someone out, it would be nice if you would oblige me." haha

[Enzo Mc is SHIT]

He's letting some neckbeard hipsters promote it and it's backfiring badly.
