Comments Thread For: Arum Reveals Details of Crawford vs. Postol PPV Undercard

[ShoulderRoll]

Let's see if Arum is a better promoter than K2. Can he beat the 97k or whatever it was that Golovkin-Lemieux got?

It will be interesting to compare.

It's just not a ppv worthy fight and will flop.

Who cares? We get to see the 2 absolute best LWWs in the world, in a lineal unification fight. That alone should be worth any price. Stop worrying about whether an event will flop – it's got nothing to do with us.

I might even watch Ramirez for the first time. I sure as hell wasn't about to watch an Abraham fight, no matter who he's in with. :yuck:

PPV? The old man has officially lost it.

Crawford is still trying to make a name for himself and is only a local star in his home town of Omaha.

Postol on the other hand is only known amongst boxing diehards and is a virtual unknown to casuals.

I didn't buy Pac/Bradley III and sure as hell won't be buying this!

It's not Bob's fault this is on PPV. HBO doesn't have the budget to put the fight on championship boxing. At least he's making the fight happen. if worst comes to worst ill catch it on the internet.

Yes it does because we're being charged a premium to see it!

This is not a ppv worthy fight.

It affects us. One of the reason HBO doesn't have a free card until June is budget issues.

This one fight, though. We don't get an occasion like this all too often. Just suck it up and complain about a genuinely non-PPV fight next time.

Damn I'm just realizing this is a TR PPV. I had just assumed HBO would be doing it.

With HBO's budget & Showtime's allegiance to Haymon its probably smart for Bob to start branching out & doing more PPV's for awhile.

Hard to say this is or isn't gonna be a good card overall with all the TBA's right now. I do love the main fight & its one of the fights I most wanna see right now. Ramirez is pretty boring & it feels like a bait n switch seeing a guy in Mexican flag trunks trying to be giant Pernell Whitaker so I have lil desire to see him fight random WBO contender guy as pretty much all his likely opponents are. Valdez is one of the funner guys to watch who's on the way up so I'm anxious to see him fight again.

Taking Crawford the ppv route he started cotto on with doing ppv himself instead of through a network although he had to do cotto first ppv that way because Hopkins had HBO ppv fight that same night

[Aztekkas]

Nice, I bought Pac vs Timmeh III mostly for the undercard so the Crawford vs Postol scrap is just a bonus for me.
