    They fight twice a year and don't clean out their divisions...and have the ****in nerve to call out established PPV kings.

    Why is Bradley mentioning Pacquiao, if he has 3 or 4 legitimate obstacles in his own division?
    Khan's next fight is possibly a lightweight.
    Maidana, we'll see now that he's in Golden Boy. But he gets props for Kotelnik and Ortiz.
    Devon and Timmy talking booty droppings, and no fight.
    Pac/may being straight bitchasses.

    It's like only SMWs are being matched against their top competitive peers.

    I sure ain't paying for any PPVs that are worthless. Catching it at a bar or something most likely.

          Good man..

          You can buy a new computer game for 65$ and it can have 7-20 hrs worth of time and even more if its multiplayer like CO, FNF4 or football games

          If i am honest as well the recent fights i have brought with Mayweather and Pac, i didn't care much for the undercards at all, infact Pac/Clottey undercard i should have been paid for watching that garbage!!

          At best maybe the headline fight an 1 other fight may take my interest.. which is a joke. Boxing will get taken over by UFC soon and will have themselves to blame, infact my money for one of the big boxing events this or next year will be going on UFC 121

            I'd rather pay to watch UFC 117. both Spider and Thiago fighting. Alves, Matt Hughes both on the card.

            I'm a fan of both sports. Not a "pure" fan since I don't box I guess.

            But damn, Boxing's about to take a beating from UFC this year.

              I just don't see the problem getting the whole family to pay for the PPV

                i buy them all just because i want to see the fights, sometimes when its over im a little cranky ( jones vs hopkins 2) but as long as they at least try to put on a decent undercard its worth it to me. everything costs money and 65 dollars is cheaper than a night at the bar or even a movie will cost half of that but i understand why people dont want to pay anymore because most times the undercards are weak. marquez vs diaz 2 undercard looks good though so i have no problem paying for that.

                    Go watch it with someone else,I never buy a PPV alone. I know I won't pay the $65 bucks by myself not even if Pacquaio faced Floyd mayweather in a steel cage.
