    Chisora / Parker
    Saunders / Canelo
    Linares / Haney
    Ramirez / Taylor
    Ruiz / Arreola

    All PPV I believe. Could be wrong.

    I'd say there's 2 genuine PPVs in there.

    Hard to begrudge the fighters earning some PPV money when there's no ticket sales for them, but it must make you wonder what you pay your monthly subs to Sky for.

    Hoping some of them are on DAZN currently worth £2 per month

    It's probably PPV as Hearn trying to squeeze every last penny before he departs Sky in a couple of months. 

    I'm going Parker points on this weekend, don't think Chisora has got the beating of him. Parker isn't a good style for Chisora. Think he'll be beaten quite comfortably.

    Best fight of the weekend for me is Sunny Edwards world title shot on Friday night on BTSport. Mthalane has held the title for a long time, almost 12 years I think. I really rate Sunny as a boxer, he's much better than his brother... has great defense and footwork. As it's a Frank Warren card and a BTSport show, sadly it's hardly talked about.

    Saunders Canelo is definitely on DAZN in the UK. Same with Linares vs Haney.

    Ruiz/Arreola is on Boxnation. I think they're in partnership with Premier Sports, who show most PBC events in the UK.

    Ramirez Taylor is shown on ESPN in the US, based on that... I'd expect it to be BTSport or BT Box office but not sure.

    Yes - I signed up for the Canelo/Campbell fight and have continued paying the £1.99. Fantastic value.

    But ... with the new nine figure deal between Hearn and DAZN coming up, I can't see it staying at £1.99!!

    I'll enjoy it while it lasts, like the 3 months subscription to BTSports I got with EE. Then I guess it's do without! 

    Wonder if a generation of sports fans are going to fail to get into boxing? I used to watch "The Big Fight" on ITV and it was only after that I bullied my dad into getting Bruno and Naz fights on sky box office!

    Sadly as an IP lawyer I couldn't possibly countenance that. I haven't even heard of cricfree ;)

    I can only think of a few current boxers more consistently entertaining that Katie Taylor

    I don't really like women's boxing, but this is a really good scrap
  • McBobbin
    McBobbin Posts: 12,051
    It's better than it used to be, remember some slapping fights. Probably because only the very best women make it to these cards, the standard I've seen recently has been very high. Think there's a case for 3 min rounds

    I've seen a fair few, even recently, and thought it was basically a different sport but that was a Great scrap
  • Fantastic fight that, quality of women's boxing constantly improving

    I had Taylor by 2 but generally speaking I haven't got a scooby doo

    CAFCsayer Posts: 10,225
    Had Taylor by 3 but Jonas is hard as nails... Taylor was just a class above technically and able to get in and out without getting tagged

    Delboy looks in great nick and in good spirits... I reckon he tags him early and takes him out 4th or 5th

    CAFCsayer Posts: 10,225

    If it goes past 5th parker makes it a crap fight and wins comfortably on points
