    I didnt think it would even do that well. Who buys a Hopkins fight? I like Nard, but he is boring as **** to watch. Well 90% of the time he is boring to watch, it just turns out that he put on a show this last time out. But I know people who buy just about every PPV, and told me ahead of time they wouldnt pay $1 to watch Hopkins wrestle.

            Interesting about Pavlik - Arum claimed last year that this was the kid to reel in the MMA audience and carry boxing on his shoulders. Yet, if Rick's earlier estimate is correct, then HBO and/or Top Rank (still unsure who gains and who loses once the pie is split) will have LOST money on both of Pavlik's PPV shows this year.
            I think Hop gave Tarver much more respect thus resulting in a more boring fight. Up until the 4th or 5th round when he knocked Tarver down, it was a snoozer. At least the Pavlik fight was mildly entertaining at it's worst.

            Why are you such a ****? It was probably Morales/Barrera III. take into account that smaller weight classes are usually not even on PPV let alone sell many of them.

            Your boy wasn't even on PPV until he hit 140. And if Gatti weren't in the opposite corner, that wouldn't of even went down.

                    Banned. Perhaps permanently.

                      Morales / Barerra numbers were even that good for two legends. Don't go around and say Hispanics buy the most PPV they clearly don't.
