West Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 David Price LOL what a dud. And to think some were suggesting this guy should share the same ring with AJ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 How is this a POV? ITV are a joke. David Price what a bum! He was not fit and lost to a bouncer! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted February 5, 2017 Moderator Share Posted February 5, 2017 Eubanks Jr fought a good fight, but if he's to be anything more he needs to step up - seeing as how no one particularly seems to want to fight Billy Joe Saunders, I'd like to see that one again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, dominated but never looked like knocking out and it was a soft stoppage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought it was IBF how many different belts are there now bit rediculous It's the highest regarded of the lowest regarded titles. It's not officially classed as a world title, only the WBC, WBA, WBO and IBF have that honour. The IBO belt belongs in a class of belts alongside the WBU and WBF 'world' titles, but among those it is the more prestigious. Bottom line is that it is an alphabet soup title no one recognises or gives two shits about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Best comment I saw about last night was some guy saying: Who is David Price's conditioning trainer? Peter Kay? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted February 5, 2017 Moderator Share Posted February 5, 2017 Oh and by the way, someone at ITV is utterly off their biscuit. I'd love to see the PPV numbers for that bill - I bet it's not much bigger than the audience that were present. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Wasn't it down for almost all of the undercard too? I suspect ITV will be issuing plenty of refunds, Eubank will still get paid but it might mean ITV don't leap into another PPV any time soon.

LakotaDakota Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Funniest thing last night was boxnations trolling. Making the channel free for the evening simply to Show 3 Eubank defeats back to back at the same time the ITV ppv was on 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 The walk in was bonkers, "Simply the best" belts out and Eubank Snr appears posing like an idiot for a minute or so, the the music changes to Dr Dre and Eubank Jr appears and walks to the ring. I feel a bit sorry for Jr with his Dad taking over absolutely everything (yes I realise he would have got a big leg up from his dad) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that Jr got a very small purse but a large chunk of the PPV money, hence why ITV barely promoted it, they have dipped their toe in the water to gauge reaction and decide if they want to make a real go of it with little risk to themselves.

In a lot of cases though isn't that where they've hoovered them up almost by accident rather than by design - where they've taken fights with a guy who has this belt and one other and ended up with this belt rather than occasions where they've gone out of their way to fight an IBO champion?
