Boxing thread?

[Bensonrecon]

More excited for Brook v Spence when it gets finalized tbh. Haye will likely end it early. I may just be blinkered after the Cleverly fights but I can't remember seeing Bellew go deep and not look like he's hanging out his arse either. Punchers chance at best.

 

[Shea]

All the hype does remind me of the build up to Haye vs Audley

I really wouldn't be surprised if the fight turned out to be similar too

Is anyone actually going to pay to watch this?

I wouldn't. Will find a stream or watch on Youtube the following day.

As I said before Haye constantly bigs up these mis-matches because he has no integrity. I won't be helping him earn money.

I refuse to pay for boxing these days. Haven't done so since I paid and stayed up until the early hours, only to see fatty coke head Hatton get smashed up by Mayweather.

It's just not worth it imo.

Totally agree, it is a bit of a piss take when you consider how expensive Sky already is and considering it is very rare there aren't alternative ways to watch live I'm amazed that anybody pays really.

The biggest problem is that unlike other Sports, you could be paying for something which is just 12 rounds of two blokes running away from each other or something which is over in one minute.

I can't even be bothered steaming it. The last time I did that it took ages to get the stream going, then there was no sound......by the time I eventually got the sound working the fight was over .

I remember back when I was still at school my friend and I waited up til 5-6 in the morning (probably Vegas fight times) to watch Lennox fight Galota on his dad's chipped cable box....... and fight was done in about 40 seconds

£9.99 might have considered it as boxers deserve to get paid but what is it £16.95? Piss take that.

I've paid monies but only coz I'm home alone this weekend and getting the lads round. My beer is free so I get a good deal

 

[Mr.D]

Couple of pals have bought out but I can't be arsed.

Yeah, it's not too bad if you've got a few mates who can come round and share the cost.

 

[AW?]

Another exhibition fight. I won't be bothering. Haye's a joke now.

 

[dagraham]

I doubt it will last very long.

 

[Rocksuperstar]

Haye now believes all of his own hype, conveniently forgetting getting put on his arse once because he got too confident. I used to like watching him fight though, if i'm honest, but as time has gone on he's become a proper tool and i would love it if he came out so convinced in his own head of this inevitable outcome that he dicks about and Bellew sticks a real fucking peach on him. Even if it doesn't win the fight, just rearrange that smug face enough to put that smirk on the opposite side of his head for a while.

Honestly, that's all i really want out of this fight now - i am almost resigned to the fact that Bellew has very little chance of taking this past the fourth or fifth round, but even just one good, solid hook to Haye and seeing that smile dissolve would cheer me right up.

 

[Wsussexspur]

Will find a stream on line to watch it. Not paying £16 for this mismatch really can't see it going past 5 rounds. The undercard isn't great either.

 

[Shea]

Paddypower have enhanced their odds for Haye to win in the first 6 rounds to evens

They only allow a max bet of 50 quid on it though

Both my wife and I have put 50 quid on

No way I'm paying to watch this. Will listen to 5 Live instead. How a non-title mismatch is PPV God knows.
