    Comments Thread For: Dooley Noted: The Diminishing of Yorkies, Undercards, PPVs

    I am a child of the 1980s. Some of you may have been born either before or after that decade yet one thing we all have in common is being handed a bit of money (for example 16p for a Mars bar in 1980, more on that later) to nip out to the shop for a bar of chocolate - a Mars bar or a Yorkie, ideally - and rushing home with the comforting weight of that piece of confectionery in either our hand (careful, they melt) or pocket (wrappers on, please, in order to avoid lint).

        Good article, it's obvious that Hearn's greed has been, by and large, enabled by the British boxing audience. I've been somewhat guilty of this although there's no universe where I'd pay extra PPV money to watch Joshua's leftovers fight in a non-title fight. If people are willing to pay money for that after they already pay prices that aren't cheap for their sky subscription then it's no wonder that Hearn's making a killing. I wouldn't mind so much if the fights lived up to their PPV billing but out of all the major Sky PPVs in the last 12 months or so, I'd say Joshua-Klitschko and Joshua-Parker (huge heavyweight fight and a unification) were the only ones that truly justified a PPV on paper beforehand and only the Klitschko fight lived up to that billing in reality. It's not even like the undercard fights have done anything to justify the pricetag.

            Good read.

            Don King knew how to put on a mega-card.

            Don't get anything close to that these days...
