    IF the fight gets made, would u pay $100 for Mayweather/Pac?

    There are rumors going around that if the fight gets made that because of the extremely high demand of the fight, a premium price would be put on Mayweather/Pac? In a LA Times poll, 15% of readers said they'd pay that much. Would you? What's the highest you'd pay before you'd say to yourself, "This is too expensive, I'm streaming this shet."

    It definitely won't be the normal cable Pay-per-view of $50 especially with Floyd & Oscar greedy asses.

      No I wouldn't. $55 is good enough.

        100???? I dunno even with 5 people thats 20 a piece and it seems very outrageous, maybe 70 or 75 but 100 seems just to high right now and would take the casual fans right out of the fight, a fight that most casual fans can't understand whatsoever. Casual fans know both guys names and are not familiar with all there opponents or weights or any of that all they know is Manny won't agree to testing for forty-100 million dollars and that Floyd just beat Shane Mosley a guy they've heard of and has alot of money and a big mouth...that's all they know and 100 would make almost all of them run for the hills based on all the bull**** around this fight already. The public has learned the more hyped up the boxing match is the better chance that they the paying public willpay the cost and suffer a ****ty rip off fight, so asking for 100 ppv would doom the fight.

              although if there is a fight worth 100$ its PAC-Floyd, for sure they will loose a lot more buys unless they load the undercards with main event type of matches...

              i.e Cotto-Mosley 2, Margarito-Williams 2 or something like that ...

                  Putting it at that price would really rub people the wrong way and would hurt their sales. I think the most they would put it at is 60 for regular and 70 for hd. If the fight happens in America(which I don't think there is any chance of it not but you never know), I'll just attend the fight.

                    Yeah I would, even if I had to do it myself, they talked about how big the fight this weekend was, well Mayweather Jr.-Pacquiao would be even bigger, they thought that was a Super Fight, but that lacks in comparison to the Super Fight that is Mayweather-Pacquiao. It'd be one of the biggest fights in boxing history, if not THE biggest.. So yes, I would pay 100 even if it was by myself, but most likely Id have 5 or 6 dudes with me and everybody would split the pot and give the money to whoever orders it. And I think that IF they were going to raise the price for this PPV, that it would'nt be 100 dollars, more like 70ish! Too many people would be turned off as someone else posted, 70 dollars wouldnt be too much, but I think that theyll probably just keep it at 50-60 bucks, normal price, because this will do unheard of PPV numbers!
