Once again, Wladimir Klitschko is fighting on a night where there is a bigger card going on.

Oct. 2 he fought the least interesting bout on Showtime's tripleheader that was head-to-head with Trinidad vs. Mayorga on PPV.

Now he's fighting relatively unknown (one national TV fight) Eliseo Castillo up against the quadruple-header PPV debut for ESPN...

There are tons of Klitschko fans on this site, but this fight surely won't come close to being as good as Margarito/Cintron. Other PPV fights that night are Elder vs. Diaz, Mosley vs. Estrada, and McCline vs. Brock.

HBO is not advertising any undercards, even though Nicolai Valuev and Vitali Tsypko are both listed as being in the same ring as Wlad's fight.

Is the PPV worth the 30 bucks? Is the free Wlad fight enough to keep you from ordering the PPV? Or is that why they invented Tivo?

I am eagerly awaiting the return of Wladimir Klitschko. I will be watching that fight, with beer in hand. Shouting "yes!" if he knocks Castillo out cold. Making Corny fist pumps and all.

I am def. gonna watch Wlad fight but I me cousin will record the ppv card.

I'm too much of a Jew for PPV. My boyfriend has HBO so I'm set there instead

Haven't seen you on the boards for awhile...must be that boyfriend

Welcome back!

sounds like a good guy. Now you just need a side-piece with a Showtime subscription...

oh yes. He is all hooked up, Showtime and all. He even has ESPN Classics so I can catch all the old documentaries on my favorite fighters. I hope I'm nott using him for his awesome cable hookups. You don't understand the greatness of this situation. I get to see MOrales. I get to see Vitali. I get to see Toney. I get to everyone and everything and directly after fights I get to make out . I think he's a keeper :D He's got everything station wise but he's not really a boxing fan himself.

Boyfriend? So you're a girl, or a gay man. Either way I had no idea boxing had many fans in either demographic. Welcome aboard either way!

you klit fans make me want to change forums. screw those lackey frankenstein boys.

Who are these PPV jokers? Most of 'em mean nothing in Limeyland... I'll watch Wlad and his iron chin.

Wait til the Wlad-fan usual suspects show up - or maybe they're just voting and bouncing?

PPV! C'mon ppl El Killer vs Margarita, plus Mosley for 25 buks..I'll download the Wlad fight later.. :boxing:

Hmmm... Maybe your not so bad after all.

I want to catch both so I probably will record one and watch the other!

I'll watch the ESPN PPV and tape the Wlad fight

That Sucks I don't Get The Wlad Fight Down Under, i might get a replay later some time on some chanel, but the other pay per views i can order but here in Oz they are 50 bucks... F*&k That!

I'm pretty sure that everyone is going to know how the Wlad fight turns out before the ESPN card, because its in Germany and I heard that they aren't going to wait around for however many hours Germany is ahead of the the U.S. east coast. So the fight is going to happen at around mid day EST. So with that being said I'll watch the ESPN card and catch the replay of the Wlad fight on later in the night...if its worth watching. I'd like to find out if they are showing any of the other fights because Valuev is on the undercard even though I thought he got hurt.

LOL - I didn't realize it was tape delayed. I remember seeing on the bottom line on ESPN2 that Wlad had been KO'd by Sanders. I called my buddy who I was going to watch the fight with and said, "hey it only goes two rounds. I'll just watch it here..."

Hmmm, it is strangely quite, isnt it :confused:

It was hard to notice for me because its not with the regular threads.

Yeah I bet the ESPN PPV sales will go if that happens again.

Well, I'll be watching the Klitschko fight just because I have no choice. Sadly, I can't get the PPV.

Damn, you guys serious?

The ESPN card is a very solid card. All four fights have some sort of intrigue to them.

The Mosley/Estrada is a crossroads for Mosley. No one wants to see if he can get it back at Welter?

McCline/Brock will be okay. If Brock wins this one he's def a contender. I don't think he will though. Jameel's too damn big.

Diaz/Elder will be pretty decent. Both guys will give it their all. Obviously Diaz has more to give, but still a decent scrap.

Margarito/Cintron-----Need I say more?

I'll catch the Wlad fight afterwards on HBO-W or something. But The 30 dollars for the espn card is very reasonable.

If you can afford it you should support it. From a business approach, if it sells really well then maybe, just maybe the big-wigs over at HBO might think about dropping their PPV price just a LITTLE. But that's a very big maybe.

Yarmez, what's up bro? Long time no see.

I'll probably watch ppv and tape the other fight. I don't know yet. I am curious to see whether Wlad is washed up or if he may be primed for a serious comeback.

Been a bit busy bro but i am back with a vegence. :D

sounds like a good guy. Now you just need a side-piece with a Showtime subscription...


Is Carnivale any good? I watched one episode and liked it, but further episodes were not very interesting.

That's totally the wrong way to watch this show. You can't really pick and choose episodes to check out. Each episode depends on you having seen all the prior episodes; that's the only chance you have at trying to follow what's going on...

i seen the guy in terminator three in an episode

That would be the main character...

.....ditto me on that!!!! I expect Wlad to make an explosive return. If not, then it may be time for him to move on.

Boyfriend? So you're a girl, or a gay man. Either way I had no idea boxing had many fans in either demographic. Welcome aboard either way!



she's got to be a girl, a gay man would be a hardcore john ruiz fan

She's said she was a girl since post one...

I can't believe there's a discussion on it.

I live in the Netherlands and I'm thinking of going to Germany to see Wladimir's fight for real. We don't have any great fighter here, and W. Klitschko is the best that I will be able to see for a long time. I don't think that his opponent will be much of a deal because they are going to put a last minute man in with Wladimir because the bum he was supposed to fight cancelled.Not really sure if I'm going to Germany though, I hate the Germs.

By the way, this is my first post here, I am looking foreward to posting here!

Boxing Bruce

I'll be watching the ESPN PPV and recording both cards but will be recording all fights on DVD.

I'll watch the fight between Klitchko and Castillo live in Dortmund, Germany.

Baard, had the Germans stolen the bike of your grandfather? :tragedy:

free Wlad for me. hopefully he can start to get his **** together.

I'm watching whichever on I can get Free.

I've been burned too many times by Dong King and his Bullsh*t fight cards. IMO, Rarely does PPV live up to the price of the telecasts.

L2P.

you klit fans make me want to change forums. screw those lackey frankenstein boys.


....Yeah that fat assed, slow, lazy, no offensive talent Tua is a much better guy to sack ride on. lol lol lol

Was all for the ppv, I wont order in revolt of what Tracy pointed out to me. Instead I will be saving my money and just catch the fights the next day instead....Besides HBO is burning a hole in my pocket with Fana/Barrera Trinidad/Wright Mayweather/Gatti.

Chances are I probably wont watch the HBO fight either...All the good fights so far this year aside from Gatti vs Mayweather are all on HBO or Showtime...I am just drooling over Castillo vs Corrales.

I'm lost Spinks (not the first time, I'm sure! :D ) What did I point out to you man? I've not posted in 3 days, and from checking back on the thread, I'm not sure what I said to make you revolt :confused:

I love PPVS especially with such a good card

I will go to a friends and watch the ppv and i will watch the Wlad fight on "on demand" and record it

Theres gonna be some awesome fights on ESPN this year
so far this year HBO has sucked

Haven't seen you on the boards for awhile...must be that boyfriend

Welcome back!

Hey, he can have a boyfriend if he wants. Hell, sometimes I wish I were gay too...women are a pain in the ass.


































P.S.
Yes, I know Roxy G. is a gal.....I'm just being funny. Scotch puts me in a fey mood.

thanks. Yea it is that boyfriend by the way heh but like I said he's got HBO boxing. THis is worlds apart from my friend Guido recording Sunday night fights of FSN :D :boxing:

Don't blame you, I don't like the show either. I tried to watch it once, but it's really just too weird. '

I do like Deadwood, though I'd prefer they learn something other than the word "****sucker". I have to record it and watch it late at night with the volume down low...kids, you see.

ill buy the PPV and tivo them both

you klit fans make me want to change forums. screw those lackey frankenstein boys.


Geez, buddy...what's not to like? There's about a 99% chance of seeing someone get badly beaten up, no matter which brother you're watching fight :D


Seriously, though....Vlad has alot of potential, and I'm hoping he returns in a confidant manner. Either way, I'll be watching that fight. I'm not big into anyone on the PPV card, and I don't have any cash riding on any of those fights, so it's Vlad for me. I've got a buddy in Oklahoma who's a big McCline fan who'll be taping the PPV for me to pick up on my next fishing trip after that fight, so I'll get to see it and the undercards. Cintron should be a pretty good fight. McCline is going to get hurt.

Personally I think that the ESPN PPV is pretty solid and at only 30.00 bucks (which by PPV standards is pretty cheap) we are getting four quality and entertaining fights... Plus Wlad's last fight against 'Touch of Sleep' did not really do it for me... So I guess you have my choice.

PS- I am going to a fight at Turning Stone Casino in NY (it is a Tarvis Simms bout) I was wondering if anybody had any idea if this fight is going to be televised?

I've never seen Tarvis Simms on TV, but that doesn't mean it's not televised. Maybe MSG or another on the satellite sports pak?

I dropped 20 bucks on the Tua PPV last week - and those 4 fights were replays. The ESPN card looks a lot better to me, plus HBO will replay the Wlad fight Sunday morning and night on HBO2...

Haha, yeah. The only time that I have seen Simms on TV is when he was fighting Bronco McCartt on some undercard... I was just curious...

In any event, I am lobbying for people to pay for this PPV card on ESPN! It is better then half the **** that GoldenBoy and Don King Productions are throwing out there for a much cheaper price!

Both Travis and Tarvis Simms (twins) used to box in the Ballroom on a fairly regular basis...thats on a few southern channels ;)
Funny you mention him...a while back they got busted (supposedly) when one of them showed up for the weigh in of a fight for his bro. instead of the bro. that was supposed to fight! :eek: I dont know which one it was, or why they even tried it, but they did get caught. I can easily see them getting away with something like that cause theyre identical twins..same wt. division and everything!
