For a PPV costing $100. The undercard should be damn good.

    I'm hoping the undercard is worth all that money. I would love to see a few future PPV fighters, fighting each other on that night. After five years of waiting for this fight. It's the least they could do.

    This is the one fight where I could give zero ****s about the undercard. No matter what fight they show I will just want it to hurry up and be over with anyway just to get to the main event.

    The last undercard I was excited to see was Mayweather vs Maidana 1 fight. That was a lineup full of main event fights. it was the highest paid undercard and didn't do great numbers, it's unlikely we'll ever see a fully load fight card on ppv like that for a while.

    As long as the fights are action packed i don't care whose fighting. There is nothing worse then watching a snooze fest then realizing you have to watch two more fights like it until the main event.

    For the "powers that be", it's not worth investing a dime in the under card. I have no idea what has or hasn't been announced on that order, but I think the best we can hope for is an exciting match-up between up and comers who don't demand anything remotely approaching a "big payday".

    You're paying for the main event; Pacquaio vs Mayweather. Not anything else.

    Ture, but they have an opportunity here. Think how many people will watch this fight who normally don't watch boxing. If they give us some bs undercard fights it could turn people off from boxing.

    The undercard will not be the difference in a single person watching the fight or not watching the fight. Therefore it means nothing. Yes, I wish it was a great and stacked undercard but no it won't and logically it really shouldn't be.
