    Personally i dont think it will. Yes its going to be a much more entertaining fight, but the promotion and hype for Oscar/Floyd was tremendous!

      Oscar is disgraceful. In the hard times we are all facing this fight is ridiclously priced.

      The only thing recession proof about this fight is Oscars bank balance.

          "Yet Arum remained insistent that despite a hefty price tag of $54.95, the pay-per-view broadcast of this weekend’s bout is a bargain"

            I imagine $55 is quite a lot of money for the average American in this current climate. Oscar could have made a compromise with the pricing.

              Easy solution. Dont want to pay, then dont. You're not being forced to buy/watch this.

                In a way you are being forced. I know loads of boxing fans who would chop their left nut off to see Mayweather vs Cotto "pre Marg". If the price was $100, people wouldn't want to pay it, but they would be have to pay that price to watch the fight. Peoples love for boxing is being ****d.

                    I feel PPV's should be reserved for Major Events such as this. Now im not trying to condone ppv's. I wish all fights were free, but compared to most of the **** that has been on ppv, this event is justified. Now im a big Cotto fan, but there is no ***ing way that im paying to see him fight this Jenning's guy.

                    Question: What is so different about this, and when Michael Jordan was charging $200 for his sneakers, when he knew damn well that the majority of his market was young poor black inner city youth who sold drugs, robbed, etc... just to get a pair of his sneakers? He was a millionaire 10x over, yet he felt the need to finanically **** all those young kids who idolized him.
