    ppv is outta control

    I just checked my guide for saturdays RJJ vs b hop and they want 59.99 plus fees. That is unreal for these two guys. i think somebody forgot it's 2010 not 1997.

    Yeah PPV prices are crazy. The only one worth that kind of money is Mayweather vs. Mosley right now not RJJ vs. BH.

        yeah but then again you're spending it on the sport you love.. not to mention these two have given the sport so much and they are part of its history so why not support what could perhaps be one of their last fights? specially considering the history these two have and how it could turn out to be a special fight since both are coming focused and prepared due to their rivalry.

        i just paid almost 70 in hd with phone fee (i dont have the box hooked up the the phone) and i agree it's a bit too much but yet again these ppv events don't happen too often and it's worth it when you get family and friends over and have nice ppv fight night. i was not going to order it but i always enjoy getting excited for big fights and know i'll be watching them without any problems because i purchased it. plus enjoy your money before 2012 gets here bro... lol!

            yeah they need to drop the price down by 50% for all PPV's except perhaps the 1 huge boxing event of the year then they can charge $60.

                    Iam a huge boxing fan but 60 dollars for that fight is a ****ing joke. If they think they deserve that much for that fight they can suck my ****
