    Interesting read. Makes you think back fondly of Don Kings monstercards back in the day.

    As a sidenote let me add that next months fight in Denmark between Kessler and Froch promises to have an awful undercard as well. So far no fights worthy of interest has been announced and the chief 'support' will likely be a female fight between a norwegian (hottie) and a TBA.

      I wish you could buy just the main event for 30$. HBO championship and BAD are usually better fights. Throw some 4-0 vs 4-0 prospects in against eachothers. Their needs to be more competitive fights earlier on in careers.

        The fans need to send a message to Jones and Hopkins to force them to re-evaluate their inflated sense of selves.

        They need to be brought back down to reality and realize that they are not PPV level fighters and never have been.

        But particularly now that they're both old as ****.

        This fight belongs on a free stream.

          If there was nothing else coming up I would buy this ppv. But Anderson Silva vs Maia on April 10th then Mayweather vs Mosley on May 1st then on May 8th Machida vs Shogun 2 and then later on in the month of May Jackson vs Evans. That's 4 ppv's that I will be buying so I don't have money to waste on Bernard vs Roy sorry. I really wanna watch it I hope Roy wins but i'll just have to wait a week to see it.

            What else do you expect from Slob Arum and Bottom Rank? I don't think he put on a good undercard since the first Erik Morales-Manny Pacquiao fight.

                well i remember the days of when don king made some great cards and he still gets loads of stick.. if i remember one card had J C Chavez, T Norris, Carbajal, and Trindad on 1 card and they were all really competitive bouts.. 4 entertaining fights all championship fights.. another card had Chavez, Roy Jones and kevin kelly and 1 more.. Lewis vs tucker, Nunn vs. Morgan, Nelson vs. Ruelas, Norris vs. Blocker..

                Everyone just give up paying for weak ppv then they'll be forced to put an entertaining card.. jones vs hopkins is a joke and haye vs. ruiz is probably even worse...

                  ^ and its even playing at movie theaters .. check fathomevents.com

                  but even so ... the final 4 is going to be saturday night .. and I'd figure that would take quite a chunk away of the potential buyers
