Its free in the UK :)
Really? Wonder why they're sticking us US customers $50 for it, and giving it to you Brits.....
I have to admit that I've been getting more and more pissed off about the PPV cards lately. I think I'd just prefer to pay a set amount for a "Boxing Channel", rather than this PPV bullshit every time I turn around. I'm not sure why Don King thinks his Winky/Tito fight will be better than the fucking WAR given us by Showtime (free to regular subscribers) last weekend. Showtime is getting better and better, HBO is getting worse and worse. Showtime is putting on another match that will most likely prove to be another fight of the year candidate soon...again, free to paying subscribers.
I wouldn't even consider buying this HBO/Dickhead King production if I didn't have a huge wad riding on this fight. In fact, I'm probably not going to be paying for it myself...I think we're watching the fight at another guy's place tonight, who'll be footing the bill himself this time.
I am getting this Pay Per View because of Zab Judah. I would probably get it anyhow just to see Felix Trinidad and Winky Wright, but Judah is the high point for me. Yes, he is fighting an undeservingly #1 ranked bum, but Judah is my favorite fighter on this event. I pick Zab Judah in 1 or 2 rounds.
yeah i called and ordered it yesterday. it kinda sucks though because the undercard isn't PPV caliber. even the judah fight could be shown on hbo afterdark
