December 14th PPV shaping up

And then everyone will say Broner is a ppv star lol, I can just see it now. The undercard is to satisfy us (hardcore boxing supporters) and the media, not necessarily for the majority of people that are going to be buying this because of Broner. You could replace Broner-Maidana with either of those 2 undercard fights and the card probably wouldn't break 100K PPV (we can look at the history of PPV cards with fighters and fights similar to Gonzalez-Mares II or Thurman-JSK headlining the card as reference). Matter of fact, without Broner headlining, it's a Latin Fury card. If this card sells over 300K, Broner is well on his way to becoming a PPV star (anything over 200K would be a decent figure really, if you take into account that Pacquiao and Cotto had PPV's selling around there unless they had a popular opponent). Anyway... Setting up as a good undercard :boxing:.

This is basically KO Kings III They're only making this PPV because they want to push Broner as a PPV star.... pretty much the big reason why I don't want to buy it now. Was interested before.... good card though, Showtime has been good at that lately

It's bad when it's gotten to the point where people accept paying (extra) money for something like this. Unlike some of the bad PPV's of the past like JMM/Diaz II, Barrera/Juarez, Cotto/Judah, etc. Broner has not shown the ability to have big crowds or been in entertaining bouts in the past. And yes the JMM/Bradley card is pathetic, but at least the main event is a very important and good fight.

That's a really great Showtime/HBO triple header. They're asking me to pay $50 for that? No thanks. I'll buy call of duty.

Don't defend this garbage. This should not be on PPV at all. This is more like a good HBO card. Since they are asking us to pay $50.00 plus I'm going to go ahead and call it ****.

Hopefully they throw Lara in there, though he wouldn't fit with the overall vibe. This is more like a KO Kings card. Yea, I don't see how this is any different from a KO Kings card. It's only PPV because they're trying to make Broner into a PPV star since they think he's a Mayweather clone.

That's really not that bad, thats worth about $25 bucks

Anyone know the venue? MGM?

Like the card. I will buy. May not buy others. JMM v Bradley I wanna see but so far nothing has been mentioned for the undercard and that'll make the difference for me. Same for PAC v rios. Side note: has anything been heard of about Arums testing protocol. I mean Bradley was vocal for a minute there then nothing.

I would def buy this PPV or even attend it.

Hell yea. Way better than bobs cards

borderline? Shiet I'd pay 75 for this Ugh don't give them any ideas. The ppv will be 50 sd and 60 in hd.

Get another solid fight and pair them up into two separate Showtime cards. This shouldn't be on PPV.

They have some good pieces in place: Broner - This dude can really hype a fight. 2nd most disliked boxer behind Floyd. Maidana - Seems to really dislike Broner. That helps promotion. Thurman - Great talker just like Broner. Malignaggi being a announcer for a Broner fight will be very interesting. He also had a little verbal confrontation with Thurman too. With that said though, anything over $30 for this PPV would be a mistake imo.

According to Steve Kim Broner vs Maidana JSK vs One Time Thurman Mares vs Gonzalez 2 Pretty good card imho and borderline PPV worthy borderline? Shiet I'd pay 75 for this

Im guessing this will be broadcast on boxnation in the U.K so i have no problems with it shaping up to be a good card. You guys in america really do get shafted on your prices for PPVs

You're openly inviting Showtime to toy with your anus if you buy this card.... Should be on regular Showtime...

this would be pretty solid if it were the undercard for a ppv. it doesnt look any better than what's aired on regular showtime boxing.

According to Steve Kim Broner vs Maidana JSK vs One Time Thurman Mares vs Gonzalez 2 Pretty good card imho and borderline PPV worthy I disagree. This is a good card for Showtime Championship Boxing, but is not PPV worthy, not even borderline PPV worthy. Putting this on PPV would be the equivalent of putting Alvarez/Trout on PPV. Broner has proved nothing except that he knows how to talk trash. Thurman is an unproven, untested wannabe and this fight won't prove anything. And you don't put a rematch of a fight that ended in a first round knockout on PPV. This fight will be lucky to sell 100,000 PPVs
