    The PPV Question

    I'm strongly debating purchasing Marquez vs. Barrera.

    Do I drop the $50, or do I wait a week and watch it for free?

    Spoiled results mean nothing to me.. I watch for the exchanges.


    In general, what do you do when it comes to PPV?


    I swear they should have a discount for people who have HBO and Showtime.. They just air the fight later in the week.

    People without HBO and Showtime pay the same amount.

    I see all the fights that regular HBO show, I don't order PPV'S, a PPV gives me a chance to go to a Sports Bar and get out of the house for a while,by myself.

      I order one's that im interested in seeing.

      I'm ordering Barrera- Marquez and probably will order most if not all of them this year, unless they are shams like Duddy- Bosante.

        Ok good.. I didn't want to seem cheap or less of a fan.

        I see there are others with me on this.

        Through 2004-2006 I ordered pretty much every PPV.

        The bills were mighty!

        I'm ****ed this year.. Too many to pass up.

          Im with you Addison. Im on the fence. It was more 30/70 of me getting it until the Bell/Mormeck fight, now Im hungry for more. Its more 50/50 now. The only ppv I have ever ordered was Pac/Morales 3, but I had a job and money back then so I could afford the price.

            I figure since DLH/Mayweather is so big Ill be able to find a fight party somewhere. I know for sure Im getting Cotto/Judah.

              funny about this thread I was wondering the same thing ( if i should get the barrera vs Marquez fight)...you know problem I have with this fight is that there is some interest but, its not like they have promoted with intrigue. I think the the winner will end up fight Paquio once his legal woes are done but thats it . boy I can't make up my mind...hmmm can't wait till May . Thats the PPV that every one will be getting.

              So who would like to help me out ?

                  I say, buy it. because the undercard is gonna be good stuff, great fighters on there.

                  And the Main Event COULD be a legendary fight. It could also be a bit slow, but its definetly a historic fight

                    Im really pulling for Barerra, and it has the potential to be a great fight. Plus the undercard could be good.

                    The problem is I have 77 dollars to my name, have to pay for gas and boxing, and dont have a job. Its a tough decisian.
