Recession and Kimbo May Slice Pavlik-Taylor PPV

[ANDROID_DOES]

who the **** doesn't have 50 bucks to spend to watch two of the greatest fighters in the world performing in the world's greatest sport?!!? Stop hatin and spend the damn bread!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this kind of attitude is ******. I will be purchasing the fight only because i purchase just about every fight. Im a big fan of the sport. But i hate how HBO takes advantage of **** like this and us fans. the first fight was free and was so good they know they will make money with the rematch on ppv. look at showtime for ex. vasquez vs marquez first two fights were classics. they could have easily put the 2nd one on ppv to make money of us they didnt they could have easily put the 3rd one on ppv to make more money they didnt.

MMA animals talkin **** again. This is prize fighting, elite athletes performing their craft. been around for over a hundred years. Comparing mma to boxing is like comparing the fine art of fencing to to guys going at with baseball bats.:

......I have to stay home and watch the kids tonight as the wife has a work function. I usually watch the fights with a neighbor of mine but he has had some issues lately and is out of the picture. It feels kind of silly and wasteful to pay $50 to watch a fight by myself when I can just catch the stream, but I will probably bite the bullet and get the PPV anyway.

Buy it,the fight and the atmosphere will make it worth it for that alone

I don't get it! Taylor/Pavlik will most likely start around 12 to 12:30 AM Eastern time.

The people that are interested in both fights, they can see both.

I personally don't care about watching some street bum against a fat man.

you are right, im watching both anyways,
i'll record em' both actually....

If you don't have the money, Ricco - Silva fight should be good.
If Ricco is in shape.

Tank - Kimbo will last maybe two minutes, until Tanks gasses.
If you have money, buy boxing PPV it will be ten times better.

....You know what's ****ed up though. All of my main HBO channels are in HD. Every single free fight on HBO is in HD. I just went into my direct TV account on line and they are ****ing charging $59.95 to see the fight in HD. That's bull****. To see it in standard it's only the $49.95 charge. That is complete and utter bull****. I'm now 70/30 against ordering it out of principle. Isn't that a ****ing crock?

Yes, that is complete and utter bull****. They do the same **** with the Sunday ticket too; and I imagine the baseball package also.

How about Kimbo versus that Fedrov guy??

Fedor would beat Kimbo inside 30 seconds

[neils7147933]

what the kimbo fight that will last one minute probably with him winning it?

EliteXC's undercard though is superior to the HBO card's... Taylor's only been on PPV with B-Hop; Pavlik never before. HBO should have put some more recognizable names on the telecast to help sell it...

I can stream the Taylor fight and/or download it this week, then tape/re-watch the replay prior to the Klitschko/Ibragimov show... And keep my 50 bucks for a more attractive PPV card
