If you have bt sport already the fights free. If you haven't it's either £12 a month for boxnation or a similar amount for bt sport. But bt sport dont get all the fights so a boxnation subscription is best for boxing fans.

Nah it's not free.

It's an added PPV price.

That was supposed to be the format but this fight is just a PPV on it's own regardless of if you subscribe to BoxNation or BT Sports. That's what Warren said anyway.

It's a bit **** to have to pay for an extra PPV if you're already subscribed to BoxNation though, in my opinion. I thought the whole purpose of BoxNation subscription was to not bother with PPV's, just get all the content for a monthly fee.

I had absolutely no ****ing idea about this. I've subscribed to boxnation from day one and this was not supposed to be the case. Warren has always criticised sky for their PPVs and now he does this. The robbing ba5tard.

I know I know

Believe it or not he's been trying to do PPV fights for a while. Now he's got BT Sport behind him he has the resources to do so and has done so quite quickly.

I don't see Canelo-GGG doing great numbers in the UK.

Summed up perfectly, if your a boxing fan and you buy this it's hard to feel sorry for you.

I mean I'll be watching it but I'll be out in bar or pub to see mcgregor get disected and stopped and finally shut up all the delusional UFC fans lol.

IF I watch this, I'll do it the next day if people say it was a good fight. Otherwise I can predict the result already lol

I'll be cancelling my Boxnation soon, the number of fights it shows seems to have gone drastically down, with boxing events being replaced by MMA and ****ing kickboxing. They're now being beaten to some of the big US fights by Sky and now they're putting the fights they do get rights to on PPV.

**** Frank Warren, I pay £150 a year for his station and now he wants more.... not happening, i'll just cancel my subscription and use one of the multiple other ways of watching the fights.
