    Canelo v Khan - Lands on UK PPV Sky Box Office, Klitshco v Fury rescheduled

    Canelo vs Khan lands on PPV in the UK, with Sky's Director of Boxing, calling this a superfight. Promotion of the fight will hit UK screen's after the Frampton vs Quigg fight has concluded. Sky clearly don't want to hamper the PPV sales for the Framptn v Quigg fight. No word yet on whether the fight will be £16.95 or £19.95.

    I am sceptical on how well this fight does on PPV, in the early hours of the morning here in the UK, but there is definitely more buzz for Khan v Canelo here in the UK, than Joshua vs Whyte (450k buys) and Fury v Klitscho (undisclosed).

    Klitscho v Fury was supposed to be on May 7th or May 21st, but because of the Canelo v Khan fight, it will look to move in late June, early July.

    Has this been confirmed?

    Quigg vs Frampton in feb

    then

    Joshua in April
    Khan vs Alvarez
    Fury vs Klitschko 2

    That's a list of PPV fights month after month. Interesting.

      I'll buy Quigg-Frampton, but other than that Hearn can get himself to ****.

      Joshua is not a PPV attraction by himself, not even close.
      Khan-Canelo is a mismatch.
      Fury-Klitschko was awful, the rematch is going to bomb.

        couldn't they make the fury and khan cards part of one big PPV, since they won't overlap anyway?

            Yeah I think you're right.... I bought the first Klitschko-Fury fight but I'm definitely streaming the rematch. I don't think I'm buying any of those to be honest.

              I smell BS, tbh. No one anywhere else is even whispering about that being the case.

                Why does OP just make up random Khan related news? He's is one of the weirder trolls here.

                  Not sure how much Hearn has to do with the Fury and Khan fights but AJ's last PPV was a success so they will just continue that model of stacking a card that he's headlining. I liked the last one tbh.

                    Joshua isn't going to be by himself, though Hearn seems to be pushing to lock in a name opponent for him; Degale-Uzcategui is also rumored for the show, as is Lee Selby-Eric Hunter.
