Comments Thread For: Hearn Fires Back at Arum Over Comments on Sky Sports, PPV

[Rick Taylor]

That Youtuber sh** was PPV over here bro.

The casuals here in the UK are genuine r**ards. They’ll pay for whatever Hearn tells them to.

Why doe?

and especially all these upcoming uk bum fight cards?
do people really have that kind of money to burn?

[sicko]

I don't blame Eddie if he is giving some of the America Promoters a taste of their own medicine in the UK Market

No but Adam Smith talked about it recently, the Pandemic is effecting everybody so it doesn't seem like it is anything personal, it is just a budget issue


I guess American Promoters will have to use FITE TV for the UK Market I guess Arum will be fine!

In their minds they are getting value for money regardless of the quality.

Sky absolutely dominate the sports sector in this country so they market their bullsh** pretty cleverly.

Mr Bean is another one who’s absolutely full of it.

“We can’t have them all” you’ve not had any!!!

As I said Sky are a very powerful media outlet over here, they absolutely dominate the TV market and further dominate the sports sector. I’d guesstimate that at least 70% of Brits are sky subscribers.

They have their stooges like Hearn, Bellew, Nelson etc telling everybody how great these cards are and people buy into it.

Sky sports news is literally like soviet propaganda mate.

Whyte and Chisora are both British and both entertaining to watch. Obviously Brits are more interested in these guys than others would be, there are plenty of American fighters who are big news in the States but unknown in the rest of the world. You may pay to see them fight, we wouldn't.

You can pay £10-£25 to watch a fight and not think much about it, but if asked to pay £75, they would tell the network to f-off (I don't know why Americans just bend over and take it).

It's also part of the culture. Brits support their team/fighter, come what may. Americans support winners.

Somebody give Arum a pacifier and a rattle and change his diaper. What a cry baby.

Arum will be even more irritated when he learns Hearn revealed that he intended Loma vs Talkafimo to be PPV not free on espn.

You're taking Hearn's word against Arum's which doesn't really prove much. The truth of the matter right now is that Loma/Lopez is NOT on PPV in the US. If you like paying for fight cards that don't merit being PPV that's up to you. God knows why you're defending a weasel like Hearn for justifying mediocre PPV cards. I don't like any promoters but when someone sides with a promoter like Hearn for trying to milk the audience to pay for his backyard fireworks during "Fight Camp" they just sound like a bias butt licker.
