Watching someone like klitschko fight, as good as he used to be, can be like watching paint dry, people want some spite in their fights. That’s why they will pay.
I would say that there are big fights out there for both of them - Haye more so, however as you point out, financially this makes sense to them both.
Hope Haye beats the f@ck out of Bellend, and I will happily pay £20 to see that.

Well if that is all you need to make £ then I'm off to call someone a bell end right now. Maybe a promoter will be interested.

Its the bellends that pay £20 to watch that pantomime that encourage behaviour like that.

Bellew's got a gob on him but far more likable than Toe-rag Haye who's been getting more wound up as the weeks have passed, Bellew seems to have got to him which could go either way, hopefully in Bellew's favour. Haye sure as hell don't deserve a title fight after the chumps he's fought since returning.

What app do you use on Kodi for Box office Boxing?
I failed last time I tried to watch boxing on it!

cant recall the name of it until i look for it tbh plus they all change so often. The other one to try on phone or tablet is Mobdro, that actually has boxnation/box office boxing on it.

and are we going to see Haye lose then blame it on a broken toe again??

Bellew doesn't come into the category of "Concussive puncher" with only 58% of his fights won by KO.Compare this to Haye who has an 87% KO percentage.

I don't really get that to be honest. I'm not going to watch something just because they dislike each other. I'd much rather watch someone like Golovkin do his work.

We want to play Brighton or Millwall because they are our rivals.

The neutral would still rather watch Real Madrid v Bayern Munich.

 

Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time.

Depends what you want from boxing, really. A boxing purist would only pay for a top level fight, but a bit of needle goes a long way, and the best quality fights aren't always the most entertaining. The Chisora vs Whyte bout was an incredibly entertaining one, but probably quite low on pure boxing quality (ie the art of not getting hit).

Doubt I'll pay for this, find a dodgy stream instead. Joshua vs Haye though...

Oh and to the OP, Haye will put Bellew on the floor inside 5 rounds IMO.

 

The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.
