Randomly anyone in the UK getting any vibes on this fight at all over there. Guessing it's not on the AJ vs Ruiz level or prime Hatton level with overseas fights but curious how many give a fook about this fight over there.

Do you have anything on topic to add to the thread or do you just like to go **** up threads for no reason?

800k domestically just to break even is a tough ask? I know bob keeps going on about two million but how big is the fight over there?
I can say from a uk point of view that barely anyone knows the fight is happening outside the hardcores.
BT are advertising it but only if you have bt or are following them. I haven’t seen any adverts or heard a Single person at work or home talking about the fight which is a real disappointment. Given in the UK it’s £24.99 and in the middle of the night I can’t see many buying it here.

UK fans seem more dedicated to boxing so I got lil doubt worse case they do a few hundred thousand but I'd doubt it'll be among the top 20 boxing PPV's there let alone in the top 10 despite the hype in the US.

I really hope it does well though cause it’s the type of fight that fans want to see.
