    i will be buying both pac v bradley and floyd v maidana but the floyd undercard has a lot more to look forward to
    Of course here go the bob arum comparisons...we get it you don't like him but why lower the bar because some other guy is doing the same thing? Does that make it ok? Nope. Still sucks on both sets of undercards and we the fans shouldn't be supporting this garbage at $70 a pop.

      If so then heads are going to roll because this card wont come close to touching the numbers that Floyd/Canelo did. If this card is more expensive than Floyd's last ppv then showtime is set to lose money.

        This is nothing more than an attempt to prepare fans mentally to pay for another $75 PPV. I buy all PPVs and this will be no exception but Schaefer needs to drop the BS.

          I wont be buying this ppv because unlike Pac/Bradley and Cotto/Martinez, this fight is too predictable. Floyd outboxes the much slower Maidana to a 12 round UD.

          I'm hosting a fight party for Pac/Bradley II and will be attending Cotto/Martinez live at MSG. For Floyd/Maidana I'll look to crash somewhere that's showing it but I wont pay for that.

            i dont think the bar is getting lowered,
            i think the card has depth .
            i think the $ they are charging is outrageous but as a fan i will have to pay it !

                    Not a terrible card, but it could have been better. Not the match-ups that I personally wanted to see, but it certainly has the potential to still entertain.

                    Get to see if another product of the Mayweather Gym takes an L, get to see if Broner recovered from that dry hump he got in the ring at 147 and get to see if Khan's chin can handle big Collazo pounding on it.

                    Match-ups could have been better, but a decent PPV card nonetheless.

                      Dude the bar is as close to the ground as possible..Broner vs Molina...Name one other situation where khan vs collazo warrants a ppv? You can't. Go ahead and pay for it bro, I don't tell folks how to spend their money. Plenty of high quality streams of both events...i've done the math i've spent well over $1400 on ppv's alone in the past ten years and now not so much. I'm going to the cotto fight unless I sell my tickets but I ain't paying for PPV's until we start seeing more #1's facing #2's and #3's facing #4's for a shot to move up and face the winner of #1 vs #2. The problem in buying these ppv's is it sends a message to the promoters that we'll just settle for whatevr hype they manufacture and guys who should get shots don't get them. How many people been in the top 10 at 147 for years that ain't get a shot at Floyd? Malignaggi has deserved a shot at Floyd more than either ortiz or guerrero to be completely honest and the organizations should've been forced Bradley vs Mayweather or Pacquaio vs Mayweather..this whole promoters dictate the rankings shhh is a joke now. Amazingly enough guys associated with smaller promoters get forced on mandatories regularly.
