If HBO did low-profile PPVs like Crawford/Postol for $25 would you be a buyer?

    I would even though fight isn't PPV worthy. Nobody is gonna pay for this if it's 60 bucks, especially if they don't stack the undercard.

      No, thats more problems not a solution.

      Squeezing the most money they can out of a declining audience is already boxings business model. Has to change or we will not have a sport in the future.

          Under certain circumstances, possibly. Although things are getting so ****ty that I can't see myself doing this at any point in the near future. The game, overall, is just way too ****ing weak to consider this. A few years ago or more - absolutely. No hesitation.

            I still wouldn't buy it. I get HBO and they always show their pay for view fights for free the following weekend. I would rather save the $25 and see the same identical fight for free a week later than pay $25 to see the fight live. Call me thrifty or call me a cheapskate but that is what I would do.

              But in the big picture thats just being a tight ass , do you smoke , drink grog , eat chocolate or potato chips , drink Coke etc what Im trying to do is put it into perspective as of value for the dollar , tell me what is your budget spent on entertainment ?

                Not for $25. You can get a crappy ticket for $25. Netflix costs $15 for a whole family. And I'm relatively well off, it's just the whole idea behind cable TV and the PPVs that is outdated.

                Don't get me wrong - I've bought a few PPVs before, but it's mostly to support a fighter or fighters.. to me, supporting PPVs =/= supporting boxing.
