He has all the right to request only PPV's, he is a PPV fighter.
I agree but i was just saying that Cotto isnt...So it would be dumb to pay for a one sided beating like last night...
Really I dont even kno why Mayweather Gatti was PPV...I definatley dont think Mayweather Cotto will be PPV..Cuz cotto is still green..That will be HBO boxing after dark..But Hatton Mayweather can be a PPV similar to Tyson lewis...Both Showtime and HBO will probally get in on it..Some ones 0 must go ..thats a interesting fight and I wouldnt bitch if it was on PPV..But MAyweather Cotto would be a rip off cuz Mayweather would rape him like he did Gatti
you paid 50 bucks to see him fight!!!#1 mayweather's promoter is under contract with hbo... therefore more likely than not all his future fights will be hbo related.. hbo ppv or a sat night on hbo... now gatti-mayweather fought last nite.. the fight will be on for free on hbo this sat at 1030-1100 so to all the dumbass people that paid 50 bucks ur dumb! get HBO!
The beauty of boxing is you never know when the end will come, unless your a cheap ass who waits for the replay.
hbo isn't just for floyd, there's tons of boxing on that channel. So really it comes down to the monthly basis of how much boxing there is compared to the flat fee of whatever amount it is.
lol!!! thats one of the most funniest things i heard all night"uhhh i am a moron duh.... mayweather fights 3 times at 50 bucks thats 12.50 a month duh..... burp!" you must be a hillbilly, so your trying to say if you lets say buy a bag of pot or coke and do it all in one night you would look at it as an investment through out a year....... cars, houses, business are investments that should be looked at in quartely junctions. now you must be poor cause uhhh duh if u buy this dog for 2000k it will cost me 13.5 cents a day thats why they play those help the starving children commercials for people like you uhhh!! duhh!!! burp!! its only 12 cents a day and at the end of the year your 20,000 down the whole your a real genius hillbilly.. by the way thanks hectari i didnt know it was this thursday on hbo i appreciate you letting me know i am really looking forward to watching the fight
the fight will be on for free on hbo this sat at 1030-1100 so to all the dumbass people that paid 50 bucks ur dumb! get HBO!
Well I can only speak for myself, but it is always more exciting for me watching a live event where I don't already know the outcome before watching. Also, Floyd is the best boxer in the world, if he fights 3 times a year, all on PPV, that comes out to $150, or $12.50 a month. I don't mind paying $12.50 a month to watch the best boxer in the world every time he fights.

I agree, but that has nothing to do with whether or not a fighter is fighting on ESPN or PPV. It's their job to promote the fight.
This is what gets you PPV
You have to be well known in the mainstream and these are the followin ingrediants.
PERSONALITY and IMAGE dela hoya and leonard had it
Invincibility Tyson had that image
Ko power and flamboyance prince naseem and hector camacho.
Floyd has all those except he doesnt have that one punch power like Tyson, Floyd said it himself he is so good that no one wants to watch him so he has to play the villian so people pay to see if someone can beat him or knock him out.
Im not surprised. Problem is, He's almost too good. Tyson had the unbelievable KO power. With Oscar he was everybodys favorite. I just dont see people buying a lot of ppv untill somebody comes along that has a great chance of beating him. I wont pay to watch him work over Hatton or anybody else right now.
^your absolutely right! no one will pay to see a guy who will obviously demolish and school all the competition. I bought this fight even though I knew floyd would win logically but I thought gatti had that one punch chance to spoil him, and also I had to pay to watch the skill of floyd. HE is the new breed he is like a boxing technician he said it himself their are fighters that can match him with speed, and pack more punch but none are smarter then him he adapts in the ring. I am gonna say this Floyd is actually a more well rounded boxer then ray leonard.
Listen Mayweather is good for the sport he is maturing you see he obviously will make a name for himself now he knows if he improves his image he can make millions like oscar. He also loves promoting his fights he showed up an hour early each time while gatti shows an hour late. We need more talkative personas in boxing cause they sell. How are you gonna get fans to boxing if you cant sell yourself and spark interest? ALi was the best at that.

He'll definitely stick to the elite fighters, and he'll definitely get his way with the PPV, I think. But really, I think a champ should be ready to fight at any time, or any place, and money should be the last thing on their mind.
All I know is that if he wants that, he can't fight anymore Henry Bruseles' of the division. He has to go after Cotto and Hatton. He has to clean the division.
I agree...
