Ricardo Mayorga says he will be in the ring before the fight with both Tito and Winky! He is gonna promote his next fight with Castillejo at Madison Square Garden July 23, 2005. LOL I hope a fight breaks out! He also said that there is no problems with the **** appeals, and his FOUR attorneys say it is not a problem for him. Sweet, I can't wait for the return of Mayo! Guess I'm gonna pay the $50 for Tito-Winky afterall, this is an added bonus!

so you are payin 50 bucks just to hear the guy talk?
that's nuts.
tito winky is going to be a boring fight for novice fans, it's worth 30, at most. im not buying it thats for sure. -
No..though its an added bonus to see my favorite fighter after a long time. Besides my dad will be there, and I want him to get a pic with Mayo.Originally posted by SlipxComment

You are the same that said that you wouldn't pay for Morales-Pac Right? I doubt that you really are a boxing fan...or you are just broke...Originally posted by Slipx
To say that Tito-Winky is a fight for novice fans is just ******..Comment

I don't blame the guy for bitching about the $50 myself....I don't like having to pay it either, but until boxing is more popular in the US, we can expect these PPV "Events" to increase as time goes by. When (if) it's more popular again, and advertising during a fight is easier to sell, then we should be seeing fights on ABC (or another of the "Big 3") again for free, during primetime TV.Comment

not in our lifetime homey...Originally posted by Stickman
think about the #'s, Morales-Pacman does 350K in PPV sales, that 350K x $50, which = $17,500,000, and the fighters each got around 2 mil, so that leaves THIRTEEN MILLION PLUS for the promoters and cable company to divvy between themselves
and we think we'll see boxing on the networks??? NO FREAKIN WAY
believe me, I wish I were wrong, but PPV is here to stayComment

that is definitely an added bonus, no question about it....Originally posted by slavik18
do you think Larry will hand Mayo a scotch to go along with his Marlboro?
I love El Matador, at his rematch w/ Forrest, Ricardo's head trainer threw me his bandana with the Nicaraguan flag, "Matador" on one side and "Mayorga" on the other, BY FAR the coolest souvenier I've ever gotten at a sporting eventComment

Interesting, really. If it were on prime time, we'd probably have four time the viewers, at least.Originally posted by SacTown1
The networks could place two 30 second spots every second round. Plus a few during the pre-fight, so they could squeeze-in at least 18 or 20 commercials (at 30 seconds). Using your approach, that would be about $650,000 per commercial, if they needed to reach $13M.
Having a big-time fight on prime-time would be a "social experiment" that ABC might try, but can they get those spots at those prices? I don't know.Comment
