I think this was a PPV because HBO is trying to make Vitali the face of HBO boxing when Gatti, Jones Jr, DLH are gone.
Heavyweight money comes against big heavyweight names. Unfortunately, there aren't too many out there. Tyson's probably it for a big payday. And Tyson vs. McBride won't do it, but there's big money in VKlit vs. Tyson.
This was not a PPV card, especially a 49.95 one, but you have to make your guys happy. Now maybe they'll have to throw some money at Wlad to come back, although this was the first fight I can remember when Vitali didn't mention his brother during post-fight interviews...
