PPV is the reason boxing has declined the way it has.

PPV is NOT the reason boxing has declined. It's a lack of exposure in general. The UFC has two PPV's a month and they are THRIVING...explain that. The reason they are doing so well is exposure and big fights getting made when they are supposed to. There are UFC fights on Sp*keTV or Versus ever other night. Whether it's lower tier guys in live fights or replays of past main events from PPV's. Boxing on regular tv? All you've got is ESPN's FNF which happens maybe once a month and it's mostly lower tier guys. Generally speaking, they also have uniformity which means if there's a big fight to be made you can bet your ass it'll get made. It won't take two years for one of the guys to decide he doesn't want to fight, like the Mayweather/Pac debacle. Boxing is FRACTURED. To say PPV is the reason boxing has declined is a simplistic way of looking at it...there's a lot more to it than that. I pretty much agree with everything you said, but the UFC's PPVs>boxing's because UFC cards are usually stacked. But just blaming PPV for boxing's decline is silly.

Every thread finds a way to become about Pac or Floyd :lol1: It's because it's what the people want. I think I might have a stroke when I finally see those two in the ring.

PPV is the reason boxing has declined the way it has. PPV is good when its used properly. There are only 2 fights I can think of right now that should be on major PPV, may pac and klitchko bros (obviously not gonna happen). The smaller ppv's are good when they give exsposure to niche fighters people want to see. If JCCjr can do 200k then more power to him. I think boxing has declined because there are too many weight divisions, too many organizations, and no free network TV are more reasons, and there are new alternatives like MMA.

Plus shit like green pulled of the other day doesnt help either that was a disgrace...

PPV is the reason boxing has declined the way it has. Without question.

really? you dont say

Oh ya and KHAN! He sucks my D too:op:

Its tons of things from too many weight classes, WAY too many Titles, shit Ppv cards to not making the fights everyone wants to see and there are not that many good fights on free tv ever.:grumble:

Every thread finds a way to become about Pac or Floyd :lol1: That's because most posters don't care/know any other boxers.

ppv is ok imo...but bitches who refuse give the fans what they want to see the most is the number one problem currently imo....that is why floyd is so hated! Every thread finds a way to become about Pac or Floyd :lol1:

It's more of the fact that they just put any crap on PPV than just PPV itself. I prefer PPV over closed circuit, which is what the biggest fights were on back in the 70s and 80s.

PPV is the biggest reason, imagine the worldwide viewing figures if all the big fights were on free TV.

PPV is by far the biggest problem imo.

PPV is part of the problem. There's plenty more though.

Most of the PPV matches are usually a easy pick on who's going to win. Along with a crappy undercard event.
