For the past few weeks I've been watching nothing but boxing events on Saturday evenings. I plan to do the same this coming Saturday...even though it shouldn't be PPV:pat:
Splittin' the cost with a few friends, so I dont mind. I see the arguement about this not being PPV caliber stuff, but all in all it should be entertaining and I'd rather see it unfold live than to wait for results on the web or sportscenter.
I wouldn't say this is a B.S. pay per view event, you have two great fighters coming back from loses, that alone is worth watching. Now, a Bernard Hopkins or a James Toney PPV type card, that's throwing money away.
Serious Pavlik v Rubio & Cotto v Jennings are B.A.D level fights. Jennings and Rubio are bounce back opponents and were picked for a reason.
Vanda is garbage, and an underachieving Duddy should run over him easily. This is FNF level stuff.
So you will pay PPV prices for 2 B.A.D fights and a FNF fight?
I usually get most. Not all. I cant see myself supporting B.S ppv's, and as long as people continue support B.S ppv's like this, they will continue to charge us for them. PPV's should be reserved for Major Events.
Too many people think that Arum thinks this is worthy of PPV. Everyone knows it's not worthy but it was literally the only way to get it televised. HBO and Showtime didn't want it, and Versus doesn't have near the type of budget to appease guys like Cotto and Pavlik. It's either this, where die hard Cotto and Pavlik fans will buy it, or it not getting televised at all.

I know, but im trying to stay out of the bar for a lil while, so I have shit else to do....
I'm splitting it with some friends so i wont be paying more then 5 bucks...Brews Buds and Boxing...Then it's out to celebrate the Victory!
Im a big Cotto fan such as yourself, but how much celebrating can u do with a win over a guy like Jennings? Did u even know who that guy was prior to this? I'd rather see Cotto win a dog fight that he had a chance of losing, rather than win an easy fight against a tomato can. There's no props in that.
Ill be buying them, I suually get them all, unless JCC Jr.... that dude will NEVER get my money unless its against an opponent that will murder him.

Big fan of both (especially Cotto), but thier opponents are nowhere near ppv worthy. Dont even care if i miss the fights, and find out what happened afterwards.
