What long articles? Are you upset at my thread that I made a few weeks ago? You know, the thread that was accurate? The thread that I called right, especially his unveiling and how most would think it is disappointing?
It's okay, even Fast Car Eddie isn't this sensitive. He's a big boy, and time for you to act like a big boy to. Stop buying all the crap he sends you.
And I want DAZN to be successful. Why? Because I will be subscribing to it. But that doesn't mean I won't critique him when necessary.
But my good sir, enjoy that PPV on Saturday....Comment

Boxing is a niche sport at the moment. The mainstream sports fan doesn't want it on regular cable television - they watch soccer, basketball, rugby, cricket, NFL, NRL etc depending on where they are in the world.
More and more boxing fights will be on PPV in the future because of this. While this sucks for fans of boxing, it does mean that once a boxer has established a name for himself, he can earn pretty decent money.
Of course, the mechanism by which one establishes a name can be dubious. Whyte's claim to fame is, as already mentioned, being knocked spark out by AJ, and being a good trash talker. I have heard that he is earning 3.8 million GBP this fight, and Parker is earning roughly 1.1 million GBP.
Parker already has his retirement money sorted, I suppose this is Whyte's retirement fund. I predict he's going to get knocked spark out again, but fair play for earning some dough in the process.Comment

The fact that Brits regard Dereck Chisora and Katie Taylor as big names says all you need to know. You are all deluded and Hearnwashed.Names sell fights, and Whyte, Brook, Chisora, Taylor are names. The point about Whyte and Parker both being in big PPV fights is exposure.... everyone knows who Parker is now, and Whyte. Whyte has built up a fan base on the back of that PPV, sold out the 02 in his last fight and is now highly ranked and fighting a former world champion in what will lead into ANOTHER PPV fight with Joshua.
Stop disrespecting myself so much? I've only ever bought one Sky PPV and that was Klitschko, I'm not even a Sky subscriber.
If Brook was fighting on the undercard alongside Taylor and Takam/Chisora it would probably be worth it IMO, obviously not to you.Comment

Thanks for your understanding. I mean no disrespect but all am trying to say is sometimes ppv is about the fighters and their fans. Just like football, irrespective of whom your team is playing, you still want to watch them play.What long articles? Are you upset at my thread that I made a few weeks ago?

Ppv is by choice and it doesn't cost too much here so it's adorable even to casuals and everybody is happy.Comment
