      You have to remember the only way for this card to be shown in America is to make it available on PPV, since this is a European card not on HBO or Showtime so the alternative is not to offer it at all. Would be nice if it was like $10 or something sure, but still at least its being offered .

        Seriously there are similar fights on Espn sometimes.
        But I will still watch the fight to see how bad GGG beats on this old man.


        Also that video in the second post looked like an awesome place to train lol

          That is why I am belly-aching about it. I could handle $10, but I just can't justify paying $25 to see him up against Ishida.

            Good article. Been watching him for years and I'm (happily) surprised that he got so much hype so quickly. If he keeps winning the big names will fight him sooner or later.

                He should get either Brian Vera, Matthew Macklin or Geale in June. Probably Vera will be the opponent for GGG IF, Vera wins tonight and GGG wins against Ishida Saturday.(Which is almost 100% guaranteed)

                  PPV's are never $10. Its either offer it on PPV or it wont be on tv. Also Golovkin is not the only person fighting, there is a tournament on the card which includes Erdei, Edwin Rodriguez and Rabchenko

                    I'll be tuning in to see him put the beating on Ishida.
