    100% agree with you.

    It really is sickening. We've waited about 5-6 years for this ****!

    The "real" fans probably won't even be able to get tickets! (WHAT!?!?)

    And they're charging 100 ****ing dollars for us to sit in a couch and enjoy a couple hours of TV.

    All of this makes me question if I really want to be their ***** and give'em a 100$.

    God damn caviar eating mother****ers.

    Edit: oh and yes, good video. :)

    Is a hundred dollars really that high for some people? I mean people who can afford to make a video and whine about it?

    Its kinda steep but it ain't gonna stop people from buying it. Save up a couple of days.

    Or if you feel like you're getting ripped off then just wait for the undercards and decide from there.

    Don't quote the dailymail Rumsfeld & stop reading it.


    Worst newspaper in the UK. (If you can call it a news paper...)

    Is it true, in Vegas there's no ppv ( @home ) ?

    Closed circuit probably will cost more than $100/person ? :-(



    @ Rums, you look like the guy from American Sniper movie. no ho mo:D:D

    $100 for a PPV is a total rip-off, even if it is Pac-Floyd, I really feel sorry for the boxing fans in the US they have to endure such greed from the TV stations

    Quite frankly the only recent PPV worthy fights from these two men:

    Pac Timmy 1 (Still not worth $50)
    Mayweather Canelo (with Garcia Matthysse undercard) (Just about worth $50)

    Of course someone was going to say that. ^^^^^^

    I'm pretty sure most of us have the money to buy it. That's not the point.

    You're right, 100$ is not that much money. Heck, it costs us about 250$-300$ for two weeks worth of groceries (and we don't have kids), but a 100$ for a couple of hours of TV is ****ing disgusting.

    Look Rummy....

    You called it.

    We've been "carpooling" PPV events since Kingvision back in the early 80s.

    My family ALWAYS bought the fight, and we'd bring a dish/case of beer/whichever and watch the fight together.

    Anyone who's sitting their parents basement watching this fight alone, will likely know just how to steal it. :patsch

    There's a thing called principle. It's not about if you can afford it. It's just a ridiculous price. Specially for two mofos that made us wait ujtil they were both past it. I'm not paying a cent.
