    So the card was definitely worth $50

    Luevano/Santiago was the best fight of the night in my opinion. It provided great action with strategy. We saw the beginning and the end of an era with Barret/Fields, Soto/Lorenzo provided controversy Boxing has been notoriously associated with and Pacquiao/Diaz was a surprising clinic. definitely worth it in my opinion.

    Yea i am really glad i bought the PPV. I NEVER regret paying to see pacquiao, ever ever ever. Same with Cotto. Never.

    The Fields-Barrett was the fight of the nigt IMO. lol. But Luevano-Santiago was a close second

      If that's what you want when you spend $50 then it must have been worth it.

      I didn't buy it but from what I read it was the exposure of two over-rated guys, Luevano and Fields and a really BS DQ (which is both annoying and wastes time because of the need for a rematch) to go along with the predicted one-sided beatdown by a P4P talent over the definition of a paper champion.

      Yes, I know Diaz is a good hard working guy. That doesn't mean I want to pay $50 to see him get beat into a pulp by Pacquiao.

      But if that's what you want for a $50 PPV then I'm glad you felt it was money well spent.

        Watching Fields get KTFO was worth the $50, everything else was gravy.

          I got to see it for free, but it was a good card. All the fights were fun to watch. The HW fight was only good cuz it was a microwave fight, but I'll take a quick KO of Fields as a good thing. 1 sided fights like the Soto robbery can still be excitin as long as the domination is done fiercely and not tactically. Too bad it ended like it did tho. The FW fight was good and you can't argue wit the draw. And Pac certainly put on an excitin 1 sided demolition job.

              Didn't buy it, but would have done it if I knew what I was getting. Very good card. Like Mayorga-Vargas.

              I didn't want to risk it though since I thought Pacquiao's second fight with Barrera absoultely ******.

                I don't know if its worth 50 bucks when its also available for free.

                Parasites like me will destroy boxing.

                  I paid 60$ for it. And would do so again.
                  If you can't shell out the money to watch a ppv fight, I hope you are in college..

                    who cares if it was onesided, it was freakin exciting. and historic. very memorable fight.

                    And the undercard was filled with excitment and a good 1st round KO, and since when has controversy been a bad thing?

                    Its controversial, and causes a lot of productive discussions between the men that matter.
