3 PPVs in 4 months, what will you buy?

[-Kev-]

pay per snooze....i dont care if the card is stacked, which i really doubt it'll be, i'm not buying that sh.it

Hopkins coming off his biggest win in recent years, he's The Ring 175 champion, vs Dawson coming off a dominating win over Diaconu.

Then you got Holt vs Mataysay rumored, and I wouldn't be surprised to see Pascal on there on split site in Montreal.

So why not?

I'm getting all three, in mother***ing HD.

i loved hopkins performance but he usually gives you a great one vs a fighter gunning for him(trinidad), vs dawson though? damn i cant really convince myself that this one will be entertaining, i'm going to watch it, but wont buy it. as for Holt, i like the kid but he's fighting who again?

Undercard for Hopkins vs Dawson has to be stacked or that is just not gonna do numbers, if your not a hardcore boxing fan then most of the people dont even know who the hell Chad Dawson is, dude is Boring in the ring and boring out the ring, he's had chances to make himself a star by now, it's just not in his nature, he's a laid back snoozer , Hopkins while yes he's entertaining majority folks will still say "do i really wanna pay PPV for a 46 year old??"

they will have to do some MAJOR hyping for this fight if they want it to do anything sales wise because right now i dont see it , as of right now i know for a fact im not getting it unless the Undercard is just that stacked to where i have to see those fights, but u got a guy near 50 and a young guy that moves around and carries himself like he's 50 ....

I will only buy one of these and that is Mayweather/Ortiz. I believe that this fight will outsell the other two, unless Pac/Marquez ends up on Showtime and Showtime once again refuses to release the real PPV buy rate and allows Bob Arum to make up his own number as they did with the Pac/Mosley fight.

On another subject, don't count Marquez out of this fight. Marquez looked bad in his last fight above 140. However, I believe that performance had nothing to do with the weight and had everything to do with his opponent -- Floyd Mayweather. Pacquaio is not on the same level as Mayweather. Pac/Marquez will be a very competitive fight and if anyone get's KO'd in this fight, I believe it will be Pac. If this fight goes to a decision, I think it will be another controversial one just like the first two and once again, Marquez will end up on the wrong end.

Wow. Those are big words big james, "if anyone gets ko in manny-jmm, itll be manny, or if it goes to decision it'll be close/controversial".

Why do i have a feeling you'll be dissappearing from nsb after this fight?


The worst fight of the 4 to me is margs/cotto. Both are such shells of their former selves. Im pulling for cotto, but really both dudes are not ppv worthy imo. Obviously the grudge makes it more interesting, but really, what have they done impressively lately?

The only 2 worth buying are Pac-Marquez and Cotto-Margarito

Pac-Marquez are two first ballot HOFers that like to fight toe to toe and have unfinished business. Gave up two of the best fights in the last Decade.

Cotto-Margarito are two borderline HOFers that like to fight toe to toe and will be a sequel to one of the greatest fights of all time.

May-Ortiz is gonna be one of the most boring fights of the year. And I can't support a guy thats insanly boring inside the ring and a douchebag outside the ring. And Ortiz is pretty arrogant for a quitter that has made nothing but excuses against Maidana instead of rematching him like a warrior and beating a hypejob named Berto.

I am gonna get both the Pac-JMM and Cotto-Marg.
