I don't think it does.. It's an intriguing fight, and I"ll probably order it, but this is where the business side of boxing bothers me.. It just doesn't seem like a PPV fight to me, PPV should be left to the biggest fights.. I think they should cut back on PPVs, and this is one of the fights that should be excluded.. That's just my opinion
I think this will be one of the lower ppv buys out there. I wonder what Judah is gonna do if he loses this one. Does he actually have any excuses left? or does he bow out with some humility.
Hell no this fight shouldn't be on PPV. I wonder what type of numbers they are expecting to get to consider this a successful PPV. I don't think this fight will do very good numbers.
It seems like it should be free but i'll pay it just b/c i'll be splitting it like 5 ways, and Zab fights always end in some sort of entertaining spectacle of sorts.
no but there's been much worse ppv's.
mosely/judah
juarez/barrios
bika/codrington
lacy/tba
thats a pretty nice card.
I bet Lacy goes 12 rounds without throwing a left hook and wins a dubious decision against tba.
All you're doing is giving a reason WHY its going to be on ppv. That wasnt the question asked. The question was "should it be on ppv" The obvious answer should be NO.
Ok, but should Hopkins-Calzaghe be on PPV? The significance of the fight indicates it should. That was the one that HBO chose to put on their regular show, costing the spot that may have gone to Mosley-Judah. So this fight only exists because of PPV. I understand if you think that is double talk, but I don't know how else to answer the poll. Chavez-Celaya shouldn't have been PPV either, but that's what the market dictated.
Because if it isn't on PPV, then it just doesn't happen. I'm looking forward to this fight and the undercard. Would I rather see it on free TV? Of course. But there were no buyers, so it is what it is.

Why would anyone vote yes?

Because it's not a public poll, they're doing it to fuck up the results most likely.Most likely, no one would ever choose to pay for a fight instead of watching it for free.
