And, because Calzaghe's promoter was signed to a TV network that doesn't do PPV.

In 1 year alone Hatton was mainly responsible for cumulative viewing figures of 3mil on Sky TV.
Even the Maussa fight got 132,000 PPVs.

PPV sucks big-time. Not because of me having to pay money, but limiting the public access to the big fights, means possible new fans have to be lured in by crappy weekday cards and so on.. They are killing boxing, and I can only applaud the fighter/promoter/network for doing it differently.
