Whats up with you guys and sopcast?

50 bucks for calzaghe to fight a shot roy jones? SOLD!

My experiences with Boxing PPV's I don't got any friends who follow boxing. but anyway since I use sopcast I'll chime my 2 cents in. as for the ignorant "dude you guys act like $50 bucks is a lot of money" comment. Well $50 depends what we're talking about but considering im able to watch pro football, basketball, baseball and a majority of the college football/basketball seasons not to mention PLAYOFFS for all sports included all on network cable without the extra fees then yeah compared to a $50 3 or 4 fight boxing card it's a huge rip off, IMO. and plus 2 months worth of $50 PPV's would be $100 and again IMO that's kinda crazy to pay for sports .. even if you are a die hard fan. If I were spending $50 to $55 for boxing PPV's I'd be kinda embarrassed to be honest. it's not exactly chump change, and the NBA, NFL plus college sports air so many games on basic cable .. shit even Poker is free on TV. So why the almost unreasonable prices for boxing PPV's? **most bars down here only show UFC .. and the closest one to me has no cover charge, talk about insane, lol. ******************************************** "Bars have to pay an incredible amount of money to show PPV events. If they show them without paying the fees they get fined big and deep, and shut them off immediately (ala some streams on fight night). I am very puzzled how people can go to sports bars for free and just watch any damn thing. I sure as hell haven't encountered it." dude you guys act like $50 bucks is a lot of money. it's saturday night. what do you guys do saturday night. going to the movies will cost that much. taking a hoe out to dinner costs that much. going to a club and buying 6-8 dollar drinks is that much. you guys are whiners. ********************************************* **and going to the movies isn't even close in price comparison to an HBO boxing PPV ... $10 tickets .. lets say ya go with some one else .. it's $20 .. buy some candy, popcorn, soda ... you'd max out at maybe $25-30 on the low end and $35 tops. vs that $55 boxing PPV of yours. You know what ima go to a movie in the next couple of days and give you a price comparison aight? I doubt what I spend will come anywhere close to $50-$55 though. You are dead on about the 6-8 drinks at clubs .. those add up, lol.

You telling me.. My friends didnt have a clue.. I suggest night of boxing drinks,Hi grade and Food for the upcoming Pac/Oscar matchup 1 thought Oscar was the waiter at mexicanos down the brookville road and the other swore blind that pacquaio was out of the snake and eagles shadow Some dodgy Jackie chan film from the 80's The rest said what Happened to Mike tyson isnt he the champion anymore.....

dont really have many friends who are boxing fans. Same boat. Oh and for the most part, lots of US fights aren't covered over here.

its different for us peeps in the UK, we get the US PPV at 4AM in the morning and hardly a time to have your mates round, i preffer to get up at 9AM, log onto world boxing archives and download for free However, if i was in the US I'd either get a ticket for the fight, or have mates round and cover PPV cost. Last prime time PPV we have over here was Amir Khan, and well, that was hardly worth £15 ($30) was it!

LMAO. Your funny. Dude,learn about the dollar menu friend,5$=5 double cheeseburgers. Dipshit. Or hell,if you dont like cheeseburgers,get a bunch of fries. Shit if you wanna get creative mix it up...cheeseburgers AND fries... Damn is it to complicatyed for you still? You can eat like that when you're a teenager, but don't say you weren't warned when your body sends you a bill for it years later. That food is absolute trash and should only be eaten occasionally.

dude you guys act like $50 bucks is a lot of money. it's saturday night. what do you guys do saturday night. going to the movies will cost that much. . Tua last time i spent $50 on a night out here name was roxanne mate and she could do things with a conker and a shoelace ive never seen done before

MY TAGALOG is improving. I owe it all to my tagalog teacher, Tracy. COME FIGHT NIGHT I WILL BE POSTING IN THE PINOY LOUNGE.... man. you're gonna forget that shit. xcaret and rizoom taught me my tagalog. i can fool most of the pinoys now.

Tua= patok Tua =buhay-mayaman At any rate, yeah, Bars do charge too much. For the biggest fights, it's easy to go to a party, but the more obscure ones it's kinda hard at times when they are ppv too so I split those between streams and getting a 300 dollar cable bill. The days of going out after a ppv event are ovah.... tua is at the most broke he's been since he was in his teens...... :nonono: i blame scott's liberal democrat congress. :) that's why i say just spend it on the big fights. buying 2-3 ppv a year is not that bad.

What's with all these go to a bar comments? I live in a major us city and any ppv that is showing a fight at a bar charges cover 20-25 bucks usually. Bars have to pay an incredible amount of money to show PPV events are they get fined big and deep. I am very puzzled how people can go to sports bars for free and just watch any damn thing. I sure as hell haven't encountered it. 50 buck by the way, is nothing for Left Hook Tua. He's a rich land owning republican who has little sympathy for the class struggle :) yeah how much they charge bars is killing boxing tbh. they need to make it cheaper. that's why most bars only hold ufc fights. it's cheaper. yeah i'm rich. that's why i'm working for free right now and living off of my savings and had to cash out my 401k and stock options...... :nonono: dude you guys act like $50 bucks is a lot of money. it's saturday night. what do you guys do saturday night. going to the movies will cost that much. taking a hoe out to dinner costs that much. going to a club and buying 6-8 dollar drinks is that much. you guys are whiners.

lol Nah its cool... But im writing to mcdonalds as we speak on why the fuk we aint got a doller menu Why do we have Green McDonalds? **** that. Give me Red and Yellow, sometimes I walk down the street and I honestly don't know where the f.uck I am. I keep buying Coffee, I don't even like Coffee. I feel like I have too. Hazlenut Caffe Latte the other day I had, I've never felt more gay.

I sure as hell dont spend 50-60$ on a dinner.I could eat well with 5$ at McDonalds. Are you guys forgetting not everyone makes good mopney,there are alot of poor people in the boxing scene,stop thinkin about what you can do and put someone elses life in the picture. I simply dont have the money to spend on a PPV event. I wish you could understand that. well you're 16. understandable. when i was 16 me and my boyz all went to taco bell and get 39 cent tacos. lol i'm talking about the older guys that have jobs and stuff.

lol Im a bit harsh on you sorry kid... But im trying to say you aint the only one im in the same boat...... I understand, I just want everyone else to understand too,not everyone has the money,I am poor,im not that poor im just tryna make a point, And 5 dollars can get you quite a bit of food at mcdonalds dude...There is a dollar menu..

Wait... You have friends that watch boxing?

Not really dude. :nonono: but you're a rich elitist liberal......
