Just found out Haye vs Chisora is only 10 rounds, wtf? I don't actually expect the fight to go that far but nonetheless its still a kick in the teeth considering the prices it has cost / costs to attend the event.....
Povetkin v Rahman for the title was meant to be on the undercard - Scratched
Frankie Gavin on the undercard - Scratched
Haye v Chisora only 10 rounds instead of 12
£50 - £1000 for tickets just to see Haye v Chisora now and a bunch of unknown fighters. Pathetic and disgraceful from Warren
Frank Warren is disgraceful.....

Its still a quality fight to have but just saying some people have paid £75,£100, £200, £250, £500, £1000 just to see one quality fight.
Luckily i only paid £50 so i'm not too bothered, but just thinking its a bit of a kick in the teeth that some people paid that much expecting to see a 12 round heavyweight brawl between haye and chisora, a heavyweight championship fight ( povetkin v rahman ) and local lad frankie gavin and instead are only getting one decent fight that doesn't even have the option of going 12 rounds

yet the punters have apparently lapped it up. who is the bigger fool?
will probably watch it on TV, wouldn't dream of paying that sort of money for two, at best, average fighters

Think you have to subscribe to watch it on box nation - £10 a month.

Non title fight with a banned boxer and a guy coming out of retirment and you think 10 rounds is a shock?
It might be a shock if either of them last that long!

If that undercard had been on I would have got it, now I'll either see if I can find it for free or listen on the radio.
The Povetkin fight would have interested me. He has only every fought in Germany and Russia (excluding one fight in Finland so seeing him come to the \UK, and seeing how he does would have been something I wanted to see. Also you would have to imagine that he would be one of the fighters Haye and Chisora would be thinking about after this fight.
Get him over, let him see the massive crowd let him know just how much he would make fighting here again in a few months time against the winner of the main event. Job done.
