Hey, I hope everybody is doing fine. :D
I wish to know what is the highest price you would pay for this card to see it televised at the beginning of the next year:
Samuel Peter vs. David Tua
Jeff Lacy vs. Antonio Tarver at LightHeavyweight
Lamon Brewster vs. John Ruiz
Vitali Klitschko vs. Lennox Lewis II
I think the Peter-Tua bout should be scheduled for 4 rounds only, so "action" is guaranteed. And what kind of action ... :D
:boxing: Thanks.

fitty.
again.
the lacy-tarver fight would have to be the main event. I would rather see a featherweight fight than those hw fights. I would only pay about 10 bucks to see that gay card
I don't think that good, competitive or interesting fights should necessarily make a card pay-per-view worthy. I'd like to see Samuel Peter face David Tua because of the styles, but Tua has also been away for a while. I'd prefer to see how much he has left first. Lacy and Tarver might be the best match-up on the card, but it still doesn't say PPV to me. Brewster-Ruiz is a unification bout, yes, but it's not "oh, I gotta pay for that." And as for Vitali and Lennox? Too late. So what would I pay for that card? I'd pay the gas to drive to the sports bar and back, I'd pay for my food there and I'd pay the cover fee if I had to.
Of the PPVs this year that I can recall off of the top of my head, here's how I handled them:
Morales-Pacquiao - purchased
Barrera-Fana - skipped
ESPN show - purchased
Wright-Trinidad - purchased
Adios Chavez - sports bar
Gatti-Mayweather - purchased
Hopkins-Taylor - purchased
Rahman-Barrett - sports bar
Tarver-Jones - sports bar
Corrales-Castillo - purchased
I wonder how rarely I'd spend the money to catch whole cards if I wasn't doing the column. Otherwise, I'd either hit sports bars or watch the repeat a week later. But then again, I've become extremely jaded about PPVs. I almost think that the only truly worthy PPVs now would be ones with two megafights and one lesser, but still interesting match. I don't think I should have to plop fifty dollars down just to see Gatti, with the bonus of a decent undercard. HBO isn't free, but it's still cheaper than the dollars we're shelling out.
Like I said, extremely jaded.
