View Full Version : 44.95 ppv price for morales pac=overpriced,overhyped
Slipx 03-16-2005, 02:30 PM I question the intelligence of whoever orders this fight for 44.95 , these two guys do not deserve that kind of payday...watch it be a 12 round UD after morales feels pac's power, you'll see, and then you'll remember this post and you'll say 'damn, slip was right, i couldve bought a bunch of other **** but i just wasted my money on this b.s.'
its being replayed the very next day on hbo so im just gonna catch the replay.

The very next day or the next weekend?
mic573 03-16-2005, 02:35 PM It's not being replayed until the next week and I have spent money on lesser ppv's before. This fight deserves the hype it's getting in my opinion. The price isn't great but that's nothing new. The only ppv's I will never buy are the heavyweight ppv's.

Not sure about replay next day. Maybe next week.
Yah but u can't also blame the fans who wants to gather around with friends and have fun watching this fight. :boxing:
Super_Lightweight 03-16-2005, 02:38 PM I'm not paying for it anyway. My mom is sending me money for it because March 20 is my 19th birthday, and also, I can just go down the street to some dude's house to watch it if I want.

Freaky! I agree with every word of this post..even the part about heavy wt. ppv's! :eek: I'm not waiting an entire week to see just the one fight, not when I can watch all 4 fights..especially when the main event alone is worth the price. Cant ask for a more exciting match up, and like Mic I've paid the same price for some very boring fights..this fight will be anything but boring!
Slipx 03-16-2005, 02:48 PM 45 bucks though, it's worth just ignoring boxing sites for a week and watching it the next week. 45 bucks buys you:
a tank and a half of gas
lots of steak,chicken,or pork
an expensive steak out at a grade A restaurant
a tub of Muscle Milk
a week of eating at a chinese buffet, or 2 dates at a decent chinese buffet
10 movie tickets
u would trade any of these just to see some overhyped fight a week early?
I'd only throw up on it if it was like 9-10 of us. 5 bucks each or less seems worth it to me, and even then I won't enjoy the fight as much as I would if I were to just ignore the press/boxing sites and watch it a week later in my own home, cause when a big punch lands everyone jumps outta their chair blocking the view and I gotta stand up to see whats going down..im just gonna catch it next week, tape it, and watch it over and over again later on afterwards, by myself, in total concentration.
some people watch boxing to say 'oohhh look at that guy getting punched etc'. me, i watch it and study it like it's a trig problem, i simply watch fights better alone, or with people who dont jump outta their seat when a large punch is landed, ruining my concentration.
i prefer not to surround myself with novices when a big fight comes around, even if they are my friends.
PessimisticPug 03-16-2005, 02:50 PM I think the $44.95 is well worth it to any true boxing fan, sure if it was on regular cable that would be great, but its not. Morales is well deserving of the money and pac is one of the hotter men in the sport right now. I dont know how anybody could say that this bout is not woth the pay per view cost. People still pay the money to watch Tyson and if anybody is truely not worth the cost it would be him against anybody, not a great match like Morales and Pac...............Rockin'

Maybe if you're gonna see it alone is not worth it, but what I do is that I pay for the ppv and my friends bring the beer, Alcohol, muchies, etc or we split the 44.95..
.::|ULTIMATE|::. 03-16-2005, 02:52 PM 45 bucks for basically one fight.... that may seem steep... but what a fight its gonna be. Its basically guaranteed.
These are 2 guys who pride themselves on always giving the fans their money's worth.
I question your intellegence by buying other ppv's but not this one.
These guys are what prizefighting is all about.

look at statistics,on penn and teller they did a show about sexism,
79% of all females in the us stay at home until age 24, it isnt sexist, it's just that they are raised to be codependant
IwatchBoxing 03-16-2005, 02:57 PM I belive this Pay Per View will be on par with the Morales vs. Barrera 3, except the undercard might be better than last time (last time it sucked), but Morales vs. Pacman will fall somewhat short of the other main event, but great fight for Mexicans and the fans, I will wait for the replay cause I dont have a hot box anymore.

THere are 3 fights listed on the undercard..so there will be 4 fights total (or there is supposed to be: Jorge Arce vs. Hussein Hussein, Martin Castillo vs. Eric Morel and JC Chavez Jr. vs. Ryan Maraldo.
tracylee 03-16-2005, 03:00 PM and assuming if I ordered the fight I wouldn't have money to eat isn't?
I was going by the examples you gave..damn! You asked if we'd trade the fight for several different types of food..so I dont know how in the hell I got the impression we had to choose between the two. Read your own post already!
Sir_Jose 03-16-2005, 03:00 PM That is a bit much but if you wont pay for this fight then what fight will you pay for?
Manny Pacquiao 39-2-2 vs Erik Morales 47-2 (130)
Martin Castillo vs Eric Morel (WBA 115)
Jorge Arce vs Hussein Hussein (WBC 112 Interim)
Julio Cesar Chavez vs TBA
Its a nice card, but I do think if they wanted to charge this much they should have made it better.

.::|ULTIMATE|::. 03-16-2005, 03:03 PM So your saying you dont have the mental capcity to enjoy the artistry and technique of a fight as it happens before your very eyes?
Everyone who orders this PPV is lucky/fortunate as they will be watching history unfold before their very own eyes.
I dont see the problem or where this fight is overhyped?
Its one guy fighting to continue a legacy and prideful career and another fighting for a legacy of his own. This fight could make or break their goals.

Slipx 03-16-2005, 03:09 PM The undercard bouts are a joke, any one of em could be seen on Telerama or whatever the Latino station is called on any random Friday night or whenever they televise their fights.
It's a big, steaming pile of ****, an inexperienced guy like Pac in there just because he's a puncher, didn't even really earn the ppv status..lol. I hope you guys enjoy it. makes me sad he gets a shot when Nard didn't, and Nard would conquer either one of em.
maybe you guys ordering it are the same guys that pay 44.95 to see don kings night of the heavyweights, or the same guys that ordered dlh vs tito, etc. shrug.

Don't blame you. If a good boxing match is a definite fun for you then I'd say PPV is much cheaper than going to Las Vegas. Come Monday you can still work at the same pace coz you didn't have to do all those travelling woes to Vegas.

As much as I'd love to experience the atmosphere of a live fight, there's a part of me that believes that my living room is the best seat in the house (so to speak) and I can afford ppv, but I cant afford to go to Vegas! :(

masterdirector 03-16-2005, 04:33 PM Paying anything is too much to watch an event that should be free. I'm not going to come on saying I'm thrilled about spending the $22.50 (splitting it with a friend), but it is what I have to do to see the fight.
Once we rid the sport of promoters and sanctioning bodies, get one unified boxing league, we'll get away from PPV, get back on Network TV, and everything will be free.

Along with that comes mandatory leauge U.A. testing.

Like ultimate said, it costs more to go to a movie with his family. You could always wait 3 years until it goes on tv and watch it for free, or wait 3 years and get a ps2 200 bucks cheaper. It's just expensive because it's live and news, right. If you don't care whether you see it first, then it is a rip off. If you want to see the fight and find out what the result is as soon as possible, 45 bucks might be relatively cheap.

grats on missing the point and then trying to sound intelligent.
the point is (or should I say, was..) neither fighter is worth 44.95 for a single bout, which is what your getting since the undercard fights are garbage. it has nothing to do with my money, how much I have, or how much 50 bucks is worth to me.
universally it is too expensive, I dont care if your donald trump and wipe your ass with hundred dollar bills. the fact is, neither fighter is worth that kind of a payday, and the only reason they are airing it on ppv and charging that is because all of the pac hype.

LOL Nah you should have named it "A whiny lil prick's reason why he can't afford to shell out 50 measly dollars to witness history in a sport he claims to be the student of".
lmao nah, I've never been in a ring. Sparred on grass but not in a ring. But it's funny how you claim you a big **** for boxing yet show so much ignorance towards the sport. Phatetic..... :cool:

MOOKS ... again, that's just plain fuggin' funny.
Poor little Slip has one bad day after another. Nobody seems to understand his version of boxing history. pretends to be a "student of the sport" but doesn't have the energy to show us much because he keeps forgetting forgetting his lunch on the short bus.
QueenCity 03-16-2005, 08:37 PM Considering I was dumb enough to buy the Klitchko/Williams PPV I won't bat an eye to pay seeing this one... I looking forward to it too much not it buy it.

LOL, Hey if he talked trash but actually HAD any boxing knowledge, I would take it. jabsrstiff was cynical but he knew his boxing. But this little skidmark hasn't shown any yet. He's mainstream sheep who talks too much trash...
Kimmy 03-16-2005, 08:46 PM Slipx is correct, 50 bucks is too much for a fight that has the potential to be great but also a flop 12 round bore.
Morales lost his last fight, and his title. Pac`s last BIG fight was against Marquez, it was a draw but i thought he just about lost it and these fighters are without titles, they had recent title fights and DID NOT WIN THEM!
So, why should one pay out full whack for fighters unable to win world titles in recent fights? Huh???
Well.....because Pac is overrated and just a bully? Cos Morales WAS champion?
I agree that 50 odd dollars is too much to watch a non title fight that really has little impact on the divison since Barrera is the man.
Alibata 03-16-2005, 08:50 PM Slipx is lame. A potential fight of the year candidate that any true boxing fan can't wait for and this dude is saying that the fighters are not worth the money. What a joker you are man. continue to try and convince people of that if they don't find you a little uptight. Live a little man, whats 50 bucks. These fighters may not be Chavez or whoever you deem worthy but they sure put on a hell of a fight every time they step in the ring. The fact is the MGM is almost sold out and it is not because these people who bought the tickets are looking forward to two boring fighters. They paid good money to see two fighters that have no track record of letting boxing fans down yet. And if that aint worth the price of admission I don't know what is. This fight is only going to do a conservative 350k buys on PPV. I am watching this fight ringside nukkas. So if you aint into the exitement or thrill of the sport that only a live action fight can give you, you better unzip dat ass. Life is too short not to enjoy a great fight. I understand the principle involved but I just don't have the strength to resist this fight. If you do, I don't really care, it aint my loss.

SO DON'T!!! And aproximately 400,000 homes including mine don't share your opinion. If you can't see the entertainment value that Erik Morales and Manny Pacquiao bring to the table, well that's your loss and I truly feel sorry for you.
Kimmy 03-16-2005, 09:04 PM Hey guy, i`m not saying it hasn`t the potential to be a good fight, it has but when does the buck stop? So what if Morales wins or Pac wins. Barrera is the champ at super featherweight and if these two want to fight in the background let them. it may turn out to be a good fight but morales is only taking it cos he`s desprete to get back cos he isn`t as good as Barrera and Pac man is taking the fight cos he`s been told too. He does what he is told to and he follows orders. he will train and be ready for the fight but to Pac there is no difference between Morales or a 3K battery etc..
The terminator was told to kill Sarah Conner. It did not feel emotion or concern, it just made that its mission and priority. Same with Pac. Morales is his opponent and he see no difference between this and any other opponent. In fact, just yesterday Pac was asked through an interpretor what his opinion of Morales was. Pac answered " ask my trainer". Wow, what a guy, single minded or what!!

LMAO you seem to amaze me with every single post. I don't even know if you understand what your typing. That ONE line is proof you don't know much about Pac and your personal vendetta against him (I don't know how you developped it) is clouding your rational thinking.
He trained for 5-6 weeks against 3K battery, around ~60 sparring rounds. 9 weeks for Morales, sparred for 161 rounds. If that's not taking a fight seriously I don't now what is. :rolleyes:
Kimmy 03-16-2005, 09:24 PM Who cares, Pac don`t. Like i said. Single minded focus, thats what Pac has. You Mooks with your anti - Pac man posts, you can only hide it for so long. In simple terms. Morales has trained for Pac, he was focused on pac and he wants to fight Pac. Pac man hasdone what trainer has told him, he cant even pronounce morales but that isn`t a problem. He is told he fights the Mexican on 19th Msrch. Man, he probably calls Morales Barrera behind closed doors! Like i said, Pac is a gifted expectional legendary warrior champion. single minded focus!!! Barrera better be ready on the 19th!

Kimmy 03-16-2005, 09:59 PM Your mate pac man is the lost cause. I was never a morales fan. i liked barrera during their battles but i respcted that Morales has heart and give it his all. Also, he can be losing a fight and still try to win. That respectable!
This Pacquiao is getting all this hype and status and one asks themselves, why? Because he beat Barrera, thats it. Only one decent win on the record and a lucky draw and now Pac is invincible. i`ll tell yea, if pac loses on Saturday there can be no excuse. All his hippie following will vacate Boxing scene and you`ll only be left with fans who are critical and objective. Not one dimensional nut huggers who know **** anyhow and only root for a fighter because either they share the same nationality or they think Pac is the net big thing.
The fact is Pacquiao is an ivan Dragro kinda of fighter. Emotionless , detached and inhuman! Morales is normal, brave and feels emotion.

Listen, you should learn to handle Pac-FANATICS and should just ignore them. Judging a fighter based on his fans is ignorant and you should know better if you're truly a fan of the sport.There IS reason for a hype if your 1-0-1 against the two best featherwieghts in 3 fights in THAT weight class.
A moment ago you were telling Barrera was THE MAN and now you're dissing the guy who destroyed him. You're talking as if beating Barrera is a common occurance.
Maybe you should read up more on this PAcquiao kid before you judge. You'd read on how he went form rags to riches. How he had to fight to survive and overcome poverty. How he distributed sacks of rice and canned goods in his hometown until every single person recieved something, even sending for 80 more sacks cuz there wasn't enough. But of course, you wouldn't know these things and other acts of compassion cuz you prejudge like an uneducated child.
man i've been waiting 2-3 months for this fight and can't wait any longer. so 50 bucks is the price...so what. if ordering this fight meant my daughter and i would have to eat top ramen for a week or more so be it. it's gonna be a great fight and i'm looking forward to it. by the way we'll be eating tuna for the next month. just kidding. morales by ko.
Alibata 03-16-2005, 10:43 PM Why you even replying to the guy Mooks. This guy has to be one of the dumbest posters on here. Just ignore him. His confusion is more than just ignorance. He is seriously low on brain cells. Damn republicans.

good advice....
Alibata 03-16-2005, 10:54 PM The plain and simple truth is that all the hate is not going to change the fact that this fight will do very well with the number of PPV buys and the box office has already exceeded MAB/Morales. You'd be an idiot not to try to watch this fight if you are a serious fan. Your even a bigger idiot if you think you can discourage people from doing so. ALOT of people will have the pleasure of witnessing this fight. So if you are one of the few fans who don't care; So What! Don't hate. Live and let live. Enjoy your life.

Man, I just feel lucky that these two are treating their fans into a dream showdown. I honestly never thought this would happen and to think it's TWO DAYS AWAY!
RipTheJacker 03-16-2005, 10:59 PM 50 dollars for a great night ain't bad.
And i never liked Barrera. He punched Kennedy Mckinney before he punched Morales. That's why i annually watch the Jones 1 fight...kidding.
ps..Marquez was the lucky one to get a draw. 10-6 after round 1. U can't convince me Marquez won 8-9 of the next 11.
Super_Lightweight 03-16-2005, 11:15 PM While I personally will be finding a way to watch the fight, I do not think this is a dumb thread. If more people had the will and presence of mind to boycott PPV's altogether, it would all but force boxing to do away with PPV and start a boxing "league". With this in mind, I respect anyone who doesn't buy PPV's.

vizcaya 03-16-2005, 11:48 PM Reading this thread, I feel like I have a addiction to boxing that may not be healthy. Some people feel that $45 PPV is too much for this fight.
Well what about this.
I spent $900+ for 3 Tickets to the fight(2 tickets are for family), $150 for a room , probably gonna be another $200 for food and transportation, and yeah I am spending the $45 on the PPV, so I can watch it when I get home. I am not alone, there are over 13,000 people that will have spent as much or more.
Boxing needs fan support. If every fan stopped going to fights, and stopped supporting the sport with thier wallets, boxing would die. Boxing does not have the Network support, and has very little commercial sponsors. Its the paying fans that keeps the sport alive.
I must be sick in the head though.

tracylee 03-17-2005, 01:56 PM Slipx is correct, 50 bucks is too much for a fight that has the potential to be great but also a flop 12 round bore.

So, why should one pay out full whack for fighters unable to win world titles in recent fights? Huh???
Well.....because Pac is overrated and just a bully? Cos Morales WAS champion?
I agree that 50 odd dollars is too much to watch a non title fight that really has little impact on the divison since Barrera is the man.
Because both guys bring it all to the ring, and will definately give us one hell of a fight. Very possibly fight of the year material..belt or no belt. It will be an action packed fight, and any true fan of the sport WONT miss it!
masterdirector 03-17-2005, 04:21 PM Slipx it is idiotic to say you'd pay $45-50 for Gatti vs. Ward but not Pac vs. Morales. See, Pac and Morales actually matter. Gatti and Ward don't. Morales and Pac are actual champions/contenders. Gatti and Ward are not. Gatti vs. Ward was only 10 rounds each time. It was two unskilled fools hitting each other with everything they had.
Pac vs. Morales is between two boxers with actual skills.
I'm not going to be disappointed if this does turn into a boxing chess match. I'd love for Pac and Morales to be more strategic in their attacks. I think Morales will definitely start out with a good strategy. And if he's aware of not going crazy, he can maintain his strategy to box Pac and beat him on points, even knock him out late after Pac has worn himself out.
Then, Pac may realize that he kept trying too hard for the 1 punch KO against JMM. Pac could conserve some of that energy this time and surprise Morales and box him. We just don't know what is going to happen.
Every fight has the potiential to be a flop. Some are almost guaranteed flops. Brewster vs. Golota, guaranteed to suck. Same with Klitschko vs. Williams, Ruiz vs. almost anybody, etc.
Some people actually say Judah vs. Corley was boring. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. Some people probably somehow liked that ****** Castillo bore me to sleep in his match with Diaz. Umm...clearly I didn't.
Kimmy 03-17-2005, 04:59 PM It could be a classic fight and i can`t wait because the possiblity of Pac losing is very much there. I am excited for Morales and i hope he beats that drone Pac Man! But the companies always charge so much cos they know people will pay it. It doesn`t make it ok to charge so much though!

Hey I agree..ppv's are rediculous, but there is just NO way I'll miss this fight. It has too much potential for excitement to miss it, and waiting on the replay a whole week later (minus the undercard at that!!) isnt an option I'll consider.
Kimmy 03-17-2005, 05:10 PM Well, its all over in 3 days and we can all discuss the winner of this fight against Barrera ( although i personally feel HBO might score this fight a draw so that neither lose and a rematch could happen easy ).

how are they gonna score it a draw when pacs KO?
:D
Kimmy 03-17-2005, 05:17 PM There isn`t gonna be a KO in this fight. It would be to damaging to the careers of either man. There is too much money invested in both fighters. Only way a KO happens is if for example Pac man is winning on points, really big lead and is stopped in the last round by Morales. Then they could get a rematch but HBO won`t make a one sided verdict cos then they damage a fighters marketability. It makes more sense for HBO to do what they did in 1999 with the Lewis/Holyfield fight and make a draw. It just presents more options!
Marjoh 03-17-2005, 05:17 PM Yeah, watching it a week after alone or even with some friends, it's just not as exciting when watching it live with this very loud crowd among you. And some drunk and ready to brawl themselves. :D That's a good memory you can't buy. And I could still rewatch the fight the day after and study it by myself, and still be ahead of of you.
I'm a big boxing fan, but I'm not fortunate enough to afford $45 without sacraficing something, so I feel you there Slipx. That's why I ask a couple of friends to spare five bucks each. And I'm even willing to give ten bucks myself for this type of fight. I could sacrafice one value meal at some burger shack to see this fight. And from what I understand you could too, but choose not too. What's five bucks to spend great times with friends watching the sports you love? And if I'm not mistaking from your age (20?), you'd probably be spending time with your friends anyway. So why not do it in style? And from someone who live, breathe, and sleep boxing, those reason mentioned above should be worth it not having to stay away from boxing site and what's going on in the sports up-to-date. But I guess you're saving your money when you turn pro and manage and promote yourself?
Oh, and please, don't compare this type of fights to King's Struggle for Supremacy PPV. :D
BTW Kimmy, don't tell me you were one of the people who paid $50 for King's PPV mentioned just above this line because two of the fights is for a title?

wtf
u think ur watchen WWE or somethin
kimmy u sound lil krazee
Kimmy 03-17-2005, 05:24 PM Being at University i don`t even own a TV let alone cable so i couldn`t order it if i wanted to. My mother has cable but she lives in another country. I wasn`t speaking from my view point i was speaking from a matter of principle. The price of the pay per view is too much but its relative to who you like i guess. I`m not a big Morales or Pac fan. I love Hopkins, and Evander when he could still fight. The Holyfield Vs Lewis first fight. I would have paid 50 bucks to see it ( not knowing before hand of course wht the fight would have been like!)
masterdirector 03-17-2005, 08:16 PM Kimmy that is just idiotic. So you're saying the fight is fixed completely. Go away. Seriously, leave, stay gone, fool.

SLIPX ... First, I'm surprised you remember anything, given what little boxing fact you have retained while in "school". Further, you are your own worst enenmy. Why? Because you don't provide an opinion and then back it up. Your "schooled" logic is akin to saying "I'm right and you are wrong"
Every time you open your mouth, you say nothing, but prove just about every point thats ever been made against you. Face it, you are simply unimaginative, dull, ill informed, and can't defend yourself worth a ****. If you want evidence to your own stupidity, look at this very post. Fifty bucks is problem for Morales-Pac? WTF?
By the way, HBO Canada is showing the fight for about $30 US. I'd invite you up here to watch, but I don't think you're allowed to stay up that late.
nezahualcoyotl 03-17-2005, 10:25 PM I'll split the cost with a few homies...not bad...about $22 each.
MWCOFSU 03-17-2005, 10:32 PM I'm in college and running a little low on the funds as of lately too. But when a fight comes along like this and the bills are dwinding, we college men always have to have the wild card right???
The ole change cup :biggthump
Just got back from the coinstar with 50 bucks in my bucket. Perfect for 44 + fees/taxes.
the only problem now is getting money to fill the keg.
Slipx, you have your opinion and thats cool. but Gatti-Ward for 45 bucks? I mean, you didnt know it was going to be a classic going into it. Plus, you'd pay for Nard-Tito, but not Dlh-Tito? i think you're stretching your argument a little thin there. no big deal.
Anyone want to jump into a little betting pool with me? First person to somehow ruin it for slipx before next week wins the pot. anyone in?
masterdirector 03-17-2005, 10:58 PM yeah I'm broke as **** but I'm getting this fight.
Uhhh...DLH vs. Tito wasn't worth ordering? Damn you're a ***. Just go away. Go enjoy having the fight ruined, fool. You're going to miss it which you won't care about since you're not a real boxing fan anyhow.
Why don't you *****es just get a cable descrambling box!! They cost 250 bucks and will never have to pay for Playboy, Movie , or any PPV channels again!!
mauricio95 03-18-2005, 12:14 AM i do not know what your problem is but you can't call yourself a die hard boxing fan if you are not watching this one live :boxing:

rogue_warrior 03-18-2005, 05:31 AM Yo, i agree that 50 bucks is kinda steep for this fight, but i think that these two guys have proven that they are action fighters. They have never been in fights in which they have not tried to press the action. Even if Morales does feel PAC's power he will never give up and run, he'll go down like a man if that's how its going to go down. I'm suprised the author of this thread hasn't realized that. Anyway, i'd much rather pay 50 bucks to see 2 true warriors than 50 bucks for one of DKP "Night of the Heavyweights".
psychopath 03-18-2005, 07:31 AM I question the intelligence of whoever orders this fight for 44.95 , these two guys do not deserve that kind of payday...watch it be a 12 round UD after morales feels pac's power, you'll see, and then you'll remember this post and you'll say 'damn, slip was right, i couldve bought a bunch of other **** but i just wasted my money on this b.s.'
its being replayed the very next day on hbo so im just gonna catch the replay.
:D Go ahead and sooth yourself . . . you can watch it next year for all I care. But why question the inteligence of those who wants to see it as it happens? What?
tongpo2000 03-18-2005, 07:41 AM Why don't you *****es just get a cable descrambling box!! They cost 250 bucks and will never have to pay for Playboy, Movie , or any PPV channels again!!
Where did you order yours from? How about a link?
Will they even work with digital cable now? I was reading about the
boxes and how they're supposed to send data back to the company and random times of the day. So if you use a box thats not theirs what happens?
anyway, i have no money because i'm a jobless loser.
so i won't be ording this fight.

Good question. But, the answer is simple. SLIP doesn't have anything else to say or do. It simply an expression of his "great love" for the sport.

I'm buying the pay per view for the undercard. Plus, both these guys deserve any payday they can get.
OliverNo1 03-18-2005, 02:41 PM Jeez this thread is a joke right?
This fight is in no way over-hyped, two warriors going at it in an evenly matched fight.
Any TRUE boxing fan would pay 45 bucks for that surely?
chingon28 03-18-2005, 03:40 PM this dude is on a boxing website talking about over paying for the most anticipated fight of the yr. i think he needs to question his own intelligence. i was in vegas when gatti and ward fought the first time. and i didnt go because the tickets were so high. i question myself everyday for doin that stupid ****. im sure he paid about that much to watch mike lose to danny williams
OliverNo1 03-18-2005, 03:50 PM I am DESPERATE to see the fight live - anyone know of a cable provider or stream that will enable me to watch live from the uk?. I dont care if its free or not - i want the fight.
Fareastwarrior 03-18-2005, 04:58 PM Pay per view, arrrrrrrrrrrgh. Boxing should be a sport for everyone to watch instead of these stupid pay per view. Some fights are not even pay per view worth, like Klitschko vs. Williams or de la Hoya vs. Campas. Where are the days that boxing was free on the cable, the old days where you could see Mike Tyson kissing the floor by Buster Douglas or George Foreman crushing opponents? ABANDON PAY PER VIEW!!! :(

Abandon it? Maybe, right after tomorrow's fight! :D
Moonra69 03-19-2005, 06:11 AM I you think 50 is a lot, tell it to my friend who is spending over 1K to see it live. But you know if you are a true fan, then it doesn't matter.
AIR_KENG 03-19-2005, 06:15 AM wowow channel (japanese) is going to air it live and free!!! so if you have wowow, your lucky...
Fareastwarrior 03-19-2005, 06:21 AM Hopefully someone can put the whole fight afterwards in a bittorrent file and upload it for people who are not able to watch the contender for the fight of the year.
Thunder54 03-19-2005, 09:41 AM I am willing to pay for morales v pac but not any of those king cards or barrera v who cards
Agave 03-19-2005, 09:47 AM 44.95 for Morales vs Pac is worth it! :boxing:

Kimmy 03-19-2005, 04:13 PM In 24 hours when this fight is resigned to memory and the history books, what will be the focus of discussion? Probably the REMATCH!!
evosbm 03-19-2005, 05:18 PM i think the fighters deserves it. the actual feeling of excitement how their styles clash inside the ring. and being the elite fighters that they are...

Yes, but winner gets a rematch with Barrera, thats why their at 130.
tracylee 03-19-2005, 08:20 PM In 24 hours when this fight is resigned to memory and the history books, what will be the focus of discussion? Probably the REMATCH!!
Along with talk of a rematch, I'm sure we'll discuss the actual fight..talk about the fighter that lost and why we think he lost, and how good the winner looked, the judging (if it makes it to the cards), and maybe even bash the ref..depending on the job he does. And of course there's the usual picking on the HBO crew..there are loads of things we can and will discuss other than just the rematch! ;)

The Castillo- Morel fight bored the hell out of me, but, then again, I think most of that was just me being excited about the main event. Chavez jr. looked real good, but I think his name got him on that card...never seen a ppv fight with a 6 rd. fight on it :eek: Hell, I thought Hussein was gonna be out in the 1st round, but he rallied back til late in the game.. man, his corner really pissed him off!

but ya jr def got on cuz his name
but he beat that chump up on his own
lol
think ive seen 6rds and 8rds on ppvs b4
when he fought on other ppv undercards
:D

Well I may have enjoyed it more if I hadnt been so worked up about the main event! ;) that 6 rounder was a first for me..on ppv anyway. But he did a good job and didnt even let it go the scheduled 6!! Not too shabby I'd say :D Daddy must be very proud!!

its being replayed the very next day on hbo so im just gonna catch the replay.
neither of them two
it was great and it was worth it
tracylee 03-20-2005, 01:53 PM neither of them two

I think it's funny that he thought it would be replayed the next day!! That never happens..but will be replayed the following Sat. (maybe thats what he meant..a typo) on the Vargas undercard. I'd hate myself if I had waited..especially since it went the way it did, and had 2 outstanding fights on it...great card!!
