Alot of talk of how disappointed people are about bellew clev being ppv well fear not! Eddie hearn has said a huge name will be added to the card this week. The rumour is its haye, I can't see it my guess is its saint george!

Enzo has a relatively large surname... probably throw him on there to set up another domestic grudge match against the winner.

In all seriousness though can't see Haye agreeing to be a supporting act to Cleverly and Bellew.

My guess is otpimistically Kessler.

Can't see Kessler being support to them either mate.

There is no justification for this being PPV. Neither are world class, both got knocked out when they even got to that level.....

Why would kessler , a former world champion...a legitimate one....selling out stadiums and having two super fights with Froch...calzaghe...ward.....want to be a support act to bloody Tony Bellew?!

Plus, if its Haye, he would just fight a nobody as a tune up.

This just needs to be on Sky....not box office.

Quiggs opponent has cancelled yet again. Something like Quigg v Galahad could save the card. According to Hearn, the reason they turned down Galahads offer was that Quigg was already booked on the date. So now they are looking for opponent and have a joke of a ppv card to beef up.

Matchroom floated the rumour Haye would appear on the card. Apparently Haye is not in full training yet so there's little chance he will be fighting.

If Haye comes back it will be on one of All Haymon's new TV deal cards is my guess. Still no confirmation of who Haye's new trainer will be.

You disappoint me Rowley. A learned man like yourself should surely be aware of the fact that it's better to have had and cancelled, than never to have had at all?

There's a huge name...

Is it my imagination or is this promotion dying on it's a*s ..................I don't blame Bellew he's always fun and he's quite marketable..............Problem is having a no personality, boring Welsh guy on the main event coupled with Quigg who even the average Woman on the Street knows just fights garbage all the time...

The bill sucks ...

Could this be the worst PPV of all time.

To be fair Audley vs Haye at least (or most) was an Olympic Gold medalist vs a world champ (a version of)

Bellew has everything going for him bar talent. He trains hard, talks a great game, looks menacing, doesn't shy away from confrontation, but when the bell rings he's just not very good.

Cleverley was/is a decent boxer, but he wasn't a big puncher at 175. Now he's coming up against guys nearly 2 stone heavier I can't see it ending well.

Yeah read elsewhere its Groves, with Sauerland and Hearn shuffling the pack so Groves meets DeGale nexr year for Froch's vacant strap. Hearn could add as many high profile British fighters as he likes but if they aren't genuine 50/50 scraps its hardly going to change the publics perception of PPV. What was wrong with Quigg v Galahad, C Smith v Fielding, Macklin v Ryder added to Bellew v Cleverly ?

Eddie Hearn has turned into the new Frank Warren of yesteryear in front of our own eyes, with the amount of dreadful cards.

I assumed the Sauerland Matchroom love-in would be a pre-curser to Froch Kessler 3 but you may be right about Groves DeGale 2.

It'll be George Groves - Hearn states that one of the biggest names in British boxing will be announced tomorrow, Sauerland have said details of Groves next fight will be announced tomorrow & Groves mentioned in a tweet that he's doing 10 mile runs. This is a pre-cursor to GG vJDG II next year for The IBF title which DeGale will win when Froch inevitably vacates. 

If it is Groves v a decent-ish opponent will that be enough to make sceptics buy the PPV?

Any ideas of possible opponents for the Saint? Is it too soon for Paul Smith after the Abraham fight to get in the ring again? The Liverpool crowd would love that.

The only way I'd pay is if its groves vs Kessler or groves vs froch.....

It wont be a big fight if its on the under card of a main event headlined by a thug with no skill and a boxer with no defence fighting for absolutely nothing.

Not too sure how hearn can justify this as PPV when only last week I watch Donaire vs Walters followed by GGG....and it was on sky sports HD. I even get to watch a few fights a month on boxnation which are of better quality....and cost me less.

It's Groves vs Denis Douglin:17-3, with 10 KOs. Just a keep-busy affair, it seems:

Just flicked through his record and Charllo stopped him a while back in 5 rounds.


I'm thinking a 1-2 round demolition fight.

Pointless really but hey, suppose adds to the PPV Farce


From headlining a world title fight on PPV at a packed 80k stadium....

To fighting some unknown on the undercard of a domestic cruiserweight scrap.

Wow.

No idea mate. For my eternal shame though I may be watching this PPV, my brother invited me round. He said if I get the ale in he'll pay for the card. That still counts as me being part of our heroic stance against buying this doesn't it?

Groves fighting a very average opponent wont be tempting me. Think Eddie is doing all he can to save this PPV & persuade the casual fan that this is a much better card than it actually is.

Hearns reasoning for ppv was he needed it to to cover the expense of a stacked undercard. But still has enough left over in the kitty to add Groves in a mismatch?? Doesnt add up.

I dont think Haye would be interested in boxing on an undercard. He is a ppv fighter on his own so why would he box on the undercard of Tony Bellew and Nathan Cleverly. They should be boxing on Hayes undercard more like!

A Yorkshireman getting the ale in? That level of desperation is over and above paying for the card. Off the team judas.
