    Ortiz doesn't even have that. Why pay for a fight that I not only know who will win I know how the fight will go.

    I prefer competitive fights.
    mosley hadnt won in 2 years.ortiz is coming off the best win of his career..and has floored everyone he's ever fought

      Yeah that was a great choice! "Yay I'm a smart boxing fan, not a casual one! I ordered a fight with 2 big names!!" How did that pay off for ya? Was it everything you dreamed it'd be?

        When Haye fought Harrison, I didn't even bother looking at that fight, same with Calzaghe vs Manfredo.

        Why watch mismatches.

        If Pacquiao was fighing Vargas, I wouldn't bother watching it too

          Buy PPVs if you want, I won't it just justifies them putting on more and more of them rather than finding other ways to get fights on TV.....passing the cost on to you.

            so because someone has the potential to 'beat' hopkins, that justifies it being on ppv



            since when the **** did bernard hit the mayweather and pacquiao level?



            and its not like your ass is gonna get that **** anyway...you'll be on here that afternoon asking for links

              the Super 6 tourney in which every fight was a great match...that wasnt on ppv


              and you're telling me Chad Dawson's timid ass vs Hopkins should be?


              why? because Hopkins is a ****ing dinosaur?


              televise that fossil on regular tv
              Have you not been watching BHop's fights lately? He looks way better than Darchinyan and most other young champions out there.

Yeah it's Chad Dawson, the guy everyone has been picking as the only hope against BHop, and when a legend faces his main threat they get some perks. There was no budget for it being regular HBO, BHop can't wait another year, and they damn sure aren't making it happen on ESPN, so what are they supposed to do?


                  i understand how it went down dude...just because HBO jizzed their budget on Alexander-Bradley (non ppv), doesnt mean i have to accept their **** up and fork over $50 for that ****

                    Small guys aren't on PPV sorry you should know that, they also work much cheaper~

                    People who will want it will pay, consumers have the ultimate choice in this matter~

                    So you want boring fights sucking up HBO's budget so you can't see fights listed above that you will actually like on HBO~




                    Fucking brilliant, where is your MENSA card

                      If a fighter is really boring and only fighting for himself than I wish the ratings to do horrible. Also, I do not consider Floyd to be one of those fighters he throws alot more punches than ppl give him credit for. Only haters say Floyds boring, there's far worse fighters. Floyd has a big mouth tho but thats mainly to help sell a fight.
