Back in the 90's, Don King put on great PPVs. Those were worth buying. The stuff they try to sell these days? It's laughable. As soon as it became possible to illegally stream a fight, I haven't bought one. Or Showtime or HBO or any of these apps.

He will stop Khan eventually, though. I got Crawford by KO period. If you want to take that bet let's do it.

Again I don't get caught up in yesterday day fights. I pay attention to it but thats about it. I pay most attention to the camp noise and how a fighter lookes at the 30days, 7 day, and weigh-in more.
This is Bud's 3rd time at WW and hes has no one even CLOSE to Khan's hand speed on his resume. Gamboa has decent speed??? But not GREAT!
Buds doesnt have crushing power. He tkos you by hard work and tearing you down. This fight is a GREAT style matchup and is really gonna show us out elite Crawford is.... IMO UD Crawford or Khan at least makes it to the over/under. BUT wayyy to soon for sure. Lets see how he looks later on
If I was Khan though and REALLY wanted to win I would hire Lomachenko's dad as my trainer for this fight and all future. His skill set is PERFECT for that training style. I would pick Steward as well but you know it cant be him.
Roach is the WORST for a guy with a glass jaw....

PPV will never die on a niche sport like boxing. It will never make sense for casuals to be obligated to pay monthly subscription when there's only an average of one boxing event per month. It's ridiculous, especially in the US.
The UK has Boxnation where they talk about and show boxing 24 hrs a day. Boxing is almost dead in America.

Where was it ever going? Linear television is here to stay. Everyone is not as computer literate as others; Especially when it comes to streaming boxing online and off the internet.
Only a boxing fan will go through the trouble and the aggravation to download an app on their mobile devices just in order to watch a boxing match. I prefer watching my favorite fighters on television as opposed to the net anyhow.
