Holy shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!t!!! Now I'm pumped. Hopefully Cotto vs Margo gets the same treatment.

Good move for boxing!!!! However, wasn't Vargas vs Mayorga the last Showtime PPV?

[ChampBox@PR]

I hope the undercard fighters gets some exposure too. Like Vazquez-arce and Soto-antillon

[amayseng]

50 bucks ppv is 50 bucks

Good for boxing. Hopefully they display to the NON hardcore boxing fans that Mosley is almost 40, hasn't won a fight in 2 years and had to leave his long time company GBP, beg for a few years and sign a contract that allows Arum to possibly make his next fight or two JUST to get this fight with Pac. Let alone already being technically destroyed and embarrassed by the one man that doesn't allow Pac to be the undisputed P4P king as Mayweather was before "retirement".

But I know they'll display old clips from 10 years ago of Mosley or make him out to be a Champion by replaying his fights with Hoya and Margarito and skipping his loss to Floyd completely.

I like the CBS move but hate showtime and hate that this fight got made and really hate that you have to pay for it. Pac vs JMM III is what should have been made. That or Berto, Martinez and of course Mayweather. Are we going to get another horrible year for Pac?

It's sad that so many Mayweather fans won't embrace this as good news for boxing.. Fortunately there are quite a few who have. The greater good of boxing should go first on everyone's agenda.
