    UK Fans: Which PPV this weekend or none?

    Which one will you watch, buy etc?..

    I'm actually not sure whether to buy any of them. Usually i buy any PPV event just because it's not that expensive here and don't mind staying in for a night of boxing, but not sure any of these fighters can justify headlining PPV events.

    I don't mind both fights. I think Warrington v Frampton is good but not sure it's PPV worthy.

    Chisora v Whyte was a great tear up last time, but not sure it's worthy of PPV either. Would've made a great event on normal Sky Sports channels but neither have proven they are top fighters that should be headlining PPV's.

    I probably will end up buying one when it comes to saturday but not sure which.

    Definitely Chisora vs Whyte

    It’s 20 quid which is nothing, going for the entertainment value in a division which the uk rules

      Pretty weak that those 2 fights are PPV in the UK. I know that Brits complain about the price of PPVs in the US, but there's 2 or 3 PPVs a year and it has to be a considered a big fight to be put on PPV here. Those 2 fights would be regular Showtime fights or not shown at all.

        Why not just purchase both of them? Still much less expensive than the US PPVs and they way Warren's cards drag on, I'm sure the Whyte/Chisora fight will be over before the other one starts anyways lol.

          What times are they expected to be at?

          I guess I'll have to be switching between DAZN and ESPN+.

            That's what i mean.

            These two fights on the same card probably wouldn't be PPV worthy, never mind as separate events.

            I will still probably buy one if i'm home, just because it's not expensive.

            Just wondering what most people will buy because nobody i know seems to be favouring the Warren card over the Matchroom one

              What is the price for both of them? US PPV might be more but there's about 2 or 3 a year. I see that in the UK and good fight is put on PPV which means that you guys have more PPV fights then us.

                  Chisora/Whyte for my money, though I won't be paying for either. Warrington/Frampton has the potential to be good but I won't be watching it live, I'll DL it and watch it after ... it doesn't have that umph that a heavyweight brawl does so I don't think it warrants a live watching nearly as much. I am excited for both, though.
