    This makes sense if you are watching alone. Most pinoys in the US watch Pacquaio fights with friends. It's like an event, like Super Bowl.

        I do watch fights by myself, don't know many fight fans in real life but if someone on my block wanted to order a big event I would gladly pitch in half the cost of it.

          With technology as it is now days, you can get streams that are routinely better quality than SD. I'll settle for a free stream hooked to the big screen and a replay a week later.

            This right here. They shouldn't be charging extra anymore. Hell 4K is already here and just imagine how much extra they would charge for that.

                This right here. I actually don't currently have an HD box cuz Comcast some ****ing ***s they charge so much god damn money on internet + cable. So yeah, currently when I do order a PPV at my house I get SD.

                I obviously have an HDTV, 52", it's just that Comcast are ****ing ****** ass *****es so **** them. It's going to get worse too they are talking about capping internet, you pay more etc for ever so many GB's you go over a month.

                  The other annoying ****** thing about Comcast, is here in the North West, and some parts of Cali, they don't offer Showtime EAST, only Showtime West. This means Showtime boxing is NOT live here, it's three hours delayed. Thus the only reason I don't have Showtime. How ****ing ******ed can they be?

                      No not the PPV's. Just regular Showtime sports and shows. Whereas HBO offers HBO East and West, so we can watch boxing live or say Game of Thrones at 6pm Pacific (9pm Eastern)as well as aairing it again at 9pm Pacific on the West channel. Why Comcast doesn't allow this for Showtime is beyond me. I used to have Dish Network and it didn't have this problem. So ******ed and its been this way for several years at least.
