    I just hope Crawford and Postol negotiated good guarantees.

    If the rumours of Bradley being on the card are true then great, but seems more Arum's style to try and put someone like Ramirez or Verdejo on the card to target the Mexican or PR fans.

      basically an unknown fighter to the mainstream in crawford gets a ppv fight with an opponent even more unknown to the mainstream in Postol.

      arum would have been better off putting this fight with the pacquia bradley 3 fight to help all camps.

        I agree with you, I bet he puts Valdez & Zurdo on if not 1 or the other.

            Great fight. Terrible idea to put it on PPV. Neither guy has a huge fanbase. Forget about about casuals buying it too

                I wouldn't pay for it out of spite and I can definitely afford it. It's sickening when the fights that are suppose to build someone to PPV stardom is ON PPV, the sport is stinking.

                    The ppv is a tough sell. Hardcore fans might mean it when they say they want the best fights, but are they willing to pay for them?

                    It might be worth experimenting with however...if they stack the undercard, provide a streaming option, forego the cable companies, and price it well, I'd buy and also for the sake of other promoters getting an idea. Boxing news and media is pretty much internet based anyhow, why not move some fights in that direction, even ppvs. The advertising revenue becomes different....I'm actually having a tough time trying to imagine how they can guarantee the fighters a good purse.

                      Can always go to a bar like I'm planning to. Lol at the guy who thinks this does more than Pac-Bradley 3.
