Be interested to see the numbers this generates. I don't think Whyte is stand alone PPV fighter and Povetkin lost that status after the Klitschko disaster 8 years ago.
It's a decent enough scrap (both considered top 10 and come to fight) but still, not a PPV worthy card in my humble opinion.
Questions are, how much have we missed live action? And are we desperate enough to justify buying this because bars, restaurants and shops have been closed saving us a few bob? Still undecided to be honest, might just YouTube it the morning after.
Agree, fans could set themselves up for a disappointing future imo. As you say, we'll see how the numbers rack up and if they are very positive then I predict future none worthy fights on PPV.
Could be gone of the days where you only had to pay for top notch fighters...

Yeah, I hope this doesn't encourage Hearn to elevate every card he puts together to PPV status while ticket sales are completely compromised.
That would be a disaster for boxing. Fighters are just going to have to accept lower purses or risk completely alienating themselves.
Sorry, somebody pointed that out in a much more rude way already.
Thanks brother
That other guy is just a miserable old man who thinks the world is only uk wide
And most likely a sucker who will fork over money to watch Shyte fight
Katie Taylor is a bum, Delfine Persoon was robbed in NY, U.SA. DAZN had Delfine Persoon winning on the scores, everyone seen this euro-bum get a gift. Amanda Serrano is going to whoop Katie Taylor, and bring back the belts to America.
I feel Hearn and the current circumstances have made him realise 50/50 fights have to happen as the luxury of a buoyant economy is not there and for the public to support the events and put up with the dross of padded out records one sided embarrassing events not worthy of the platform so therefore he's backed in a corner where everybody will be judging every element closely so put simply if it's obvious Serrano wins he cannot get away with the disgusting robbery that persoon had to endure , boxing is literally on the ropes here and needs this chance to get back on track with integrity and great fair show to bring back fans with confidence, anything less and it will put a fragile recovery even further back , after this pandemic the public will be spending their hard earned a little bit more wisely .
PPV? No thanks, as much as I'm missing boxing I wouldn't pay for Whyte v Povetkin and as much as I've tried to watch women's boxing I just can't sit through it....
PPV in a tool shed, poor Whyte can't catch a break. I bet AJ doesn't do it, he gets coliseums and venues. Even Shakur is highlighting in Las Vegas. Whyte is a master of getting under paid, now he's going to teach the new guys how to do it.
