dang.....50 bucks for a trash undercard and a 2 round main event -
That article by CNN was bogus, they took quotes from after the DLH/Pacquaio fight.
Arum said. "But we know based on those early numbers and based on experience the event will perform extremely well. If I had to guess, anywhere between 1.6 million and two million homes, which is a home run."Based on early reports from cable companies and DirecTV and Dish Network, the scheduled 12-round welterweight bout could get as many as two million buys, according to Bob Arum, chairman of Top Rank, Inc., the event's co-promoterComment

Why do people think this was such a rip off? You witnessed greatness w/ Pac and saw a Tyson-esque KO. I'll agree the undercard was CRAP but they always are and you knew that comin in!Comment

i dont feel one bit that my cash was stolen, the Soto fight was pretty good, and i saw Jacobs and that one Russian guy, cant remember his name exactly. Undercard wasn't great, but it was decent. Maybe a C-C+ range. And the Main Event was 2 rounds, but it was worth it. Pacquiao torched that ASSComment
