    More fights should be available in theatre

    Seriously. It could bolster up sales.

    I mean, I can barely find any sports bars that'll show a boxing ppv around here. But a movie theater is always there. Advertising a fight in a movie theater and saying it will be on PPV in a theater might get casual movie goers to watch the fight.

    If HBO showed more boxing ads like movie previews on cable, then more people who don't want to shell out 50 bucks, but will shell out 11, will probably watch it.

    PPV destroyed boxing. Movie theaters might help revive it.

    Of course this sort of thing can only happen when a fight is destined to be good. Like the Pac - Cotto fight. Or Margarito - Cotto.

    Where are you from? I know here in NYC there are tons of places you can go to watch any boxing PPV offered. Especially the legit ones. Hell there are even some bars that have HUGE TV's that you can watch from just outside the bar very clearly and they wont even hassle you about it.
