Imagine how many more buys Tyson's ppv's would've drawn in? Or how about the Tito/Oscar fight? I personally think that Tyson/Holyfield would still hold the ppv record if it not had been for illegal cable.
I can remember when fight time came back in those days, people would be praying that the cable company didnt send out a bullit and knock out the video feed for those who were watching the fight on illegal "fixed" boxes.
Those were the good old days!
My homey used to be a cable install guy. He got the free hookup, so he always hosts our fight parties. :boxing:
It's great to have those type of friends :fing02:

Tyson Holyfield was a big fight probably bigger in America the normal general public knew it was happening.

Probably. But you have to remember how many people now stream fights instead of ordering them.
I streamed Pac-Hatton for free and it was much more enjoyable then paying $55 for Pac-Oscar.
Since the switch from analog to digital cable, its not as easy. I've heard of people having illegal boxes, but with the digital, they dont last long. Maybe a month if you're lucky.
Yep thats right..Thats why so many places refuse to sell them..
But the one that goes into a Virgin uk box cant remember the name of it now i've had it running for weeks
I had magic boxes back then and now but the internet changes things
