    Even though Pac is over-the-hill he still is a notable name and he was on the first ESPN card so they building it right.

    Wouldn't be surprised if a trend develops fighting on ESPN.
    The Australian government had to finance the Pacquiao fight to make it happen. That's why the rematch will probably be in Australia too.

        Ya Idc about where it happens so long as it's ESPN again. Good fights on free tv.....all day! And it's good for boxing!

        Win-win

          Agree. Unfortunately, the ESPN deal includes PPV. So while Pac-Horn is free due to the gov't, Pac-Crawford for instance, would be PPV. But honestly, I don't see anyone being on PPV except for Pac (I hope).

            I would love to one day see a event as big as that was on Network TV one day to see how it would do because I think it could be a game changer for the sport of boxing.

            PPV is on its last leg and that will be the last Mega PPV Event you probably ever see due to Piracy!

                  Yeah the numbers would be HUGE and they could make just as much if not more off of commercials on Network TV than PPV Buys!

                    So then why make a topic about it if you knew it was just a rumour from some dude on YouTube? You're about as pathetic as he is. Get your **** together.
