Luevano/Santiago was the best fight of the night in my opinion. It provided great action with strategy. We saw the beginning and the end of an era with Barret/Fields, Soto/Lorenzo provided controversy Boxing has been notoriously associated with and Pacquiao/Diaz was a surprising clinic. definitely worth it in my opinion.
The luevano-Santiago fight was the best of the card though just based on its back and forth action. But overall it was a good card. Pac always has good cards. I remember seeing Arce for the first time on a Pac-Morales (IIRC) undercard.
I believe he was fighting Hussein Hussein.
Well worth the 50 bones...I love when clowns call themselves hardcore Boxing fans but can't shell out a measly $50...SHIT nowadays 50 bucks can't get u dinner and a movie or a trip to the store. I'd rather spend 50 on a good fight then go to see a movie with popcorn and pop and that will cost u 50 I'd rather see a fight.
Yep, that's me...
I graduate in December though so money shouldn't be a problem then. The main thing that sucks is most of my friends watch MMA or no fights at all, so it's tough to get PPV's unless I'm the one buying.
Cool shit, man. Get that degree.
People crying about ppv prices, need to manage there monies right.
WTF? One ppv fight is going to kill your pocket that bad?
I'm up over 300$ from Pac beating Diaz. Because I have friends that want to bet....:lol1:
Really, I have a big T.V., HD, and some cool ass neighbors. My little house is the fight house. And I usually come out ahead.
Move to a boxing hood then homie. LOL you live in an MMA neighborhood.lol...that must be why you feel like such a "real hardcore boxing fan" and feel the need to point that out anytime someone disagrees with you...lol.
someone is mad. i lived in south texas and mexico for good amount of my life. but as any person with any level of intelligence and common sense would know, jobs are scarce in those parts. i got offered a great job in Austin. so i took it. you're gettin too emotional. this is the internatz. nothin serious about it.
I agree with your opinion. but MMA has taken over the bars in my area and also the people. So I watched the fight here with 2 friends. 5 years ago, it would have been 10 friends.

i love boxing and i have money to spend. i wouldnt expect a Coalition guy to understand. just fucking around with the that last part but feelings will get caught
Lol. You're fucking REALLY dumb. I guess you're entitled to a victory lap since the objection of your hatred is finally off the top perch, by default but whatever.
However, when you come back down to earth remember that Pacquiao-Diaz on PPV was roughly the equivalent of Mayweather-Joachim Alcine or Mayweather-Ricardo Torres on PPV. As a Mayweather fan I'd have bought it and enjoyed it. As a Pacquiao fan you bought Pacquiao-Diaz and enjoyed it. That doesn't change the facts; Mayweather doesn't get much credit for beating down Jesus Chavez. That didn't vault him to #1 P4P, but somehow THIS fight does it for Pacquiao...that's all I'm saying.
I didn't buy it and imho it wasn't worth it, but then again I only believe that superfights deserve to be ppv.

who cares if it was onesided, it was freakin exciting. and historic. very memorable fight.
And the undercard was filled with excitment and a good 1st round KO, and since when has controversy been a bad thing?
Its controversial, and causes a lot of productive discussions between the men that matter.
these are the same dudes who will turn around say Mayweather/Gatti and Mayweather/Baldomir were more worth it then this fight. ridiculous.
I paid 60$ for it. And would do so again.
If you can't shell out the money to watch a ppv fight, I hope you are in college..
Yep, that's me...

If that's what you want when you spend $50 then it must have been worth it.
I didn't buy it but from what I read it was the exposure of two over-rated guys, Luevano and Fields and a really BS DQ (which is both annoying and wastes time because of the need for a rematch) to go along with the predicted one-sided beatdown by a P4P talent over the definition of a paper champion.
Yes, I know Diaz is a good hard working guy. That doesn't mean I want to pay $50 to see him get beat into a pulp by Pacquiao.
But if that's what you want for a $50 PPV then I'm glad you felt it was money well spent.

Didn't buy it, but would have done it if I knew what I was getting. Very good card. Like Mayorga-Vargas.
I didn't want to risk it though since I thought Pacquiao's second fight with Barrera absoultely sucked.

I got to see it for free, but it was a good card. All the fights were fun to watch. The HW fight was only good cuz it was a microwave fight, but I'll take a quick KO of Fields as a good thing. 1 sided fights like the Soto robbery can still be excitin as long as the domination is done fiercely and not tactically. Too bad it ended like it did tho. The FW fight was good and you can't argue wit the draw. And Pac certainly put on an excitin 1 sided demolition job.
