PPVs should really go back to $39.95 in the US or similar.... especially with the BS that directv charges $10 more for HD...

it may sound ridiculous, but i'd get almost every PPV if they were between <$40 but that for some reason is my breaking point... i usually end up taking turns getting them with some of my in-laws

In a theater is still pay per view lol .

Roach is somewhat right, they're both counterpunchers. But I think this will be a good ol' chess-match. What's so bad about watching a real boxing fight with two intelligent fighters that are going to try to adjust and find a way to pull off a check-mate?

Hopkins vs Jones was a chess match and no one calls that boring, that's because two smart fighters in one ring make for a fun fight to watch.

Boxing matches don't have to all be action packed, this is not MMA. Boxing is a much more disciplined sport. I can't wait for this fight.

Roach is a selfish prick. His desire for Mayweather (and boxing consequently) to do bad, so Pac and them can have the upper hand in negotiations makes him a ****.

Fact is: both fighters prefer to counter punch, but when they're facing a fighter that's not coming forward they take the lead. It's happened time and time again in JMM's and Floyd's fights.

Mayweather has gone forward against: Judah, Mitchell, Gatti, Bruseles, Corley, etc.

JMM has gone forward against: Casamayor, Juarez, Barrera, etc.

These are elite fighters that can switch it up when ever they have to, they're not going to be staring at each other. Stop trying to ruin this fight, you selfish prick.

Excellent post...

Remember when Freddie "Nostradamus" Roach said that Pavlik would KO Hopkins in 3 rounds. Yeah enough said!

[We want Floyd]

For the sake of boxing fans(even the dumb ones), I hope this PPV bombs.

Because if both PAC and Floyd turn in PPV #S that are close in numbers, we can all forget about a PAC-Floyd matchup, y'all can kiss that matchup of the decade fight goodbye!!

Both fighters need each other to make that $$$$, BUT, it's really gonna be hard to close the deal, because both will have a strong case for why one party should get the lion's share.
