View Full Version : Worst PPV event this year? borikua 10-11-2004, 12:11 PM I got a tie btw Ruiz-Oquendo and DLH-Nard. borikua 10-11-2004, 12:14 PM This might be another contender... http://www.hboppv.com/events/ruiz_golota/img/poster300.jpg Pound4Pound1986 10-11-2004, 12:16 PM why people keep bashing the nard-dlh ppv i enjoyed that fight. the fight was close and it showed both of their boxing skills, but the best came out victorious :D as a fan of Hopkins i enjoyed it a lot seeing that four titles was on the line and he was going against one of the best boxers of this era, it shows that age hasnt caught up with mr p4p Hopkins WillieW 10-11-2004, 12:21 PM Just about all of the Heavyweight PPVs have been pretty bad. Shouldn't be too suprizing considering the HW division is the weakest in boxing as far as skill and depth. QueenCity 10-11-2004, 12:25 PM It is easily a heavyweight PPV. like Ruiz-Oquendo, or anything Don King puts together. I also thought it was pretty sad of Showtime to make Mike Tysons 87th combeback attempt a PPV. rsl 10-11-2004, 12:27 PM This might be another contender... http://www.hboppv.com/events/ruiz_golota/img/poster300.jpgYeah I think this will top all of the PPV fights as far as being rated the worse. What is even scary is the people that will actually buy this fight, obviously Don King knows his business and he sees money in this fight! I thought Nard and DLH sucked, it sorta reminded me of DLH vs. Whitaker in that both men were showing too much respect for most of the rounds, but punches were actually being landed in the DLH - BH fight mostly by Hopkins. jabsRstiff 10-11-2004, 12:33 PM Yeah I think this will top all of the PPV fights as far as being rated the worse.

I thought Nard and DLH sucked, it sorta reminded me of DLH vs. Whitaker in that both men were showing too much respect for most of the rounds, but punches were actually being landed in the DLH - BH fight mostly by Hopkins. Really....just look at that lineup of fights. Each one has the potential to be all-time LOWS in boxing. The real klunker in that bunch is Holy-Donald. Larry Donald is HORRENDOUS. He's a never-was Ali-wannabe, who has no been in any fight worth a damn. Old man Evander may get shut down by this bozo, & that is a disgrace. Chris Byrd- McCline.... I can't wait to see this one. Watching the gigantic McCline be tentative & petrified against the overrated slapper ought to really get the juices flowing. McCline will nervously fire shots at Byrd, he'll miss, & then get POKED by Chrissy on the counter. McCline will react as if Earnie Shavers was throwing at him. Pound4Pound1986 10-11-2004, 12:39 PM well i know one that wont dissapoint http://www.hboppv.com/events/morales_barrera3/img/poster300.jpg m00ks 10-11-2004, 12:44 PM well i know one that wont dissapoint http://www.hboppv.com/events/morales_barrera3/img/poster300.jpg Oh ****...nice poster...lol I felt a little tingle jabsRstiff 10-11-2004, 12:46 PM well i know one that wont dissapoint http://www.hboppv.com/events/morales_barrera3/img/poster300.jpg The second fight was an absolute disappointment. I'm hoping MAB isn't so tentative this time. abdiel2k3 10-11-2004, 12:54 PM The second fight was an absolute disappointment. I'm hoping MAB isn't so tentative this time. ya exactly im thinkin this one will be too if not more becuase both guys know how important this fight is plus i dont think they'd want to get into a war since this fight will lead to Pac im looking forward to it but im not expectin a Morales-Barrera 1 that way if ends up liek it itll be that much better abdiel2k3 10-11-2004, 12:56 PM but back to the topic of worst PPV this year hmmmmmm im gonna have to go with "Naughty College Chicks 4" but thats only cuz i missed 2 and 3 so the plot made no sense to me :confused: :) m00ks 10-11-2004, 12:56 PM ya exactly im thinkin this one will be too if not more becuase both guys know how important this fight is plus i dont think they'd want to get into a war since this fight will lead to Pac im looking forward to it but im not expectin a Morales-Barrera 1 that way if ends up liek it itll be that much better Actually you might see MAB try to fight for his life. He badly needs this win so he'll prolly go for broke at a certain point. Hurlex 10-11-2004, 01:24 PM i didnt think the bard/dlh was that bad and loved dlh down for more then a minute lol..anyway pretty much all HW fights have not been good..last good one i saw was corrie/viatli..it was pretty exciting...so i would say bad so far...umm ruiz's last fight or toney vs booker was bad..now let me explain this..it was boring as hell and he couldn t ko a bum that tyson..even shot tyson would kill in one round Marjoh 10-11-2004, 01:42 PM DLH-Hopkins wasn't bad. People was just dissapointed because it didn't live up to the hype and they paid $60 for it instead of the same $40 they paid for Mayorga-Trinidad. But it doesn't mean it's bad. And remember that promoter don't do this for real boxing fans like they claim they do. They do this for people who believe the heavyweight is the best division out there. And Toney-Booker wasn't PPV. scap 10-11-2004, 03:24 PM Any PPV with Ruiz=****! Although I will continue to purchase them because I refuse to miss the next time he is taken out like he was against David Tua( it will happen again, maybe not in 2 seconds, but it will happen). If Golota KO's Ruiz which he may then I would pay $100 to see it. |
